Makini is a unified API platform for industrial systems integration. We provide connectivity to over 2,000 ERP, CMMS, and WMS systems through a single, standardized API. Instead of building separate integrations for each system, you connect once to Makini and gain access to all supported platforms. This approach transforms integration projects that typically cost tens of thousands of dollars and take months into a manageable operational expense with deployment times of 1-2 weeks.
All Makini webhooks include a signature header for verification. The signature is an HMAC hash of the webhook payload using your webhook secret as the key. To verify a webhook, compute the HMAC using your secret and compare it to the signature header using constant-time comparison to avoid timing attacks. Never process webhook data without verification, as this could expose your system to forged requests. Your webhook secret is provided when you configure webhooks and should be stored securely. Webhook verification ensures that only legitimate requests from Makini are processed by your application.
Makini provides several debugging tools. The dashboard shows detailed request logs including request/response payloads, headers, status codes, and timing. Each API request generates a unique request ID included in responses—provide this when contacting support for faster investigation. For workflow-based integrations, Makini Flows includes execution logs showing each step's input/output, timing, and any errors. Connection health monitoring shows sync history, error rates, and connection status over time. API responses include detailed error information with error codes and messages. For development, we recommend using API clients like Postman or Insomnia to interactively test API calls and inspect responses. Our API documentation includes request/response examples for all endpoints.
Yes, Makini supports write operations including creating, updating, and in some cases deleting records in connected systems. Common write operations include creating purchase orders, updating work order status, modifying inventory levels, and creating vendor records. Write support varies by system and entity type—core entities like purchase orders have comprehensive write support across major systems, while more specialized entities may have limited write support in some systems. Write operations use the same unified API, so the code to create a purchase order in SAP is identical to creating one in NetSuite. Validate write requirements during implementation to ensure your target systems support needed operations.
