All API requests require authentication via bearer token. After successfully connecting a system through Makini's authentication module, you receive an API token. Include this token in the Authorization header of your requests: Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN. Each connection has a unique token, allowing you to manage multiple customer connections independently. Tokens remain valid as long as the underlying system credentials are valid and the connection is active. If a customer changes their system credentials, you'll need to reconnect to obtain a new token.
Design your webhook receiver to handle duplicates and out-of-order webhooks, as network issues or retries can cause both scenarios. Keep the receiver lightweight—ideally writing incoming webhooks to a queue or reliable storage—then process them asynchronously. This prevents timeouts and allows your system to handle high-volume webhook spikes. Respond with a 200 status code immediately after receiving the webhook, before processing begins. Implement idempotency by tracking processed webhook IDs and skipping duplicates. Use constant-time comparison for signature verification to prevent timing attacks. If webhook processing fails, log the error but still return 200 to prevent unnecessary retries. Set up monitoring and alerts for webhook failures so you can investigate issues promptly. For critical workflows, combine webhooks with periodic polling as a fallback mechanism.
Customers connect systems through Makini's authentication module, which provides a simple, guided connection flow. The process typically takes 2-5 minutes: Select the system from our list of 2,000+ products. Enter connection details (usually just the instance URL and credentials). Authorize the connection. Makini validates credentials and establishes the connection. The connection flow is designed for non-technical users and can be embedded directly in your application, allowing customers to connect without leaving your product. For systems requiring additional setup (like API token generation), we provide step-by-step guidance within the connection flow. Customers see real-time feedback during connection, and if any issues occur, clear error messages guide them to resolution.
"Web services only role" is an optional security setting that restricts the role to only accessing NetSuite via web services (APIs), preventing UI login. This is recommended for integration roles as it enhances security by limiting the access method to API-only usage.
