Makini's unified API acts as a common denominator across all connected systems. We map each system's data structure to a standardized data model, exposing consistent endpoints regardless of the underlying platform. This means you write the same code to retrieve purchase orders from SAP, NetSuite, or Dynamics—the API calls and response formats are identical. You always get data in the same structure, making it easy to build consistent business logic. The unified approach eliminates the need to learn each system's unique API, manage multiple authentication methods, or handle varying data formats.
Webhooks allow Makini to notify your application of events in real-time. To set up webhooks, configure a webhook URL in your connection settings or during the initial connection flow. Your webhook endpoint must accept POST requests, respond within 10 seconds with a 200 status code, and use HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. Makini will send webhook payloads to your endpoint when configured events occur, such as sync completion, connection status changes, or errors requiring attention. We recommend keeping your webhook receiver lightweight—ideally just writing the payload to a queue for asynchronous processing—to avoid timeouts and ensure reliable delivery.
The `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED` error indicates you've exceeded the API rate limit for the connection or account. Rate limits are typically set per connection and per time window (usually per minute). When you hit a rate limit, the response includes a `Retry-After` header indicating when you can retry the request. Implement exponential backoff in your retry logic to avoid immediately hitting the limit again. If you consistently hit rate limits, review your API usage patterns—you may be making unnecessary requests, polling too frequently, or could benefit from webhook-based synchronization. For legitimate high-volume needs, contact us to discuss increasing your rate limits.
Our standard SLA targets 99.9% uptime for cloud deployments, which translates to less than 9 hours of downtime per year. For enterprise customers with critical integration requirements, we offer enhanced SLAs up to 99.99% through multi-region redundancy and dedicated infrastructure. SLAs cover the Makini platform itself—availability of connected third-party systems is outside our control, though we monitor their health and alert you to issues. For self-hosted deployments, uptime depends on your infrastructure configuration, and we provide architecture guidance to help you achieve your availability targets. We maintain a public status page showing real-time system health and incident history.
