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.
Connection-specific errors often relate to system configuration, permissions, or connectivity issues. Common scenarios include: the system is offline or unreachable, credentials have expired, API rate limits on the source system, or permission changes in the source system. Use the connection status endpoint to check connection health before making API calls. Implement circuit breaker patterns—if a connection repeatedly fails, temporarily stop making requests to avoid cascading failures. Log connection-specific errors separately to identify problematic connections. When errors occur, check if the issue affects all operations or specific entity types, which helps narrow down permission or configuration issues. For on-premises systems, verify network connectivity and firewall rules. Contact support if connection errors persist, providing the connection ID and affected operations.
Write operation limitations vary by system. Common limitations include: field-level restrictions (some fields may be read-only), business rule validation (orders may require certain fields or valid vendor codes), permission requirements (the connected account needs specific permissions), timing restrictions (some systems prevent modifications after certain workflow states), and rate limits on write operations. Custom fields in target systems may not be writable through standard APIs. Some systems have transactional requirements—for example, purchase order line items must be created in the same transaction as the order header. During implementation, we identify write operation limitations for your specific use cases and design workflows that work within those constraints.
Makini monitors connection health continuously and provides multiple ways to detect reauthorization needs. The connection status endpoint returns the current state including whether reauthorization is required. Makini sends webhooks when connections enter a state requiring reauthorization, allowing proactive notification. API requests to a connection requiring reauthorization return specific error codes prompting reconnection. The Makini dashboard displays connection status across all customers. Best practice is to implement webhook listeners for connection status changes and proactively notify customers when reauthorization is needed, rather than waiting for operations to fail. Include clear instructions on how to reconnect in your notification.
