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.
Integration timelines vary by complexity. For standard implementations with no customizations, connections can be live within 1-2 weeks. This includes authentication setup and basic workflow configuration. For implementations requiring custom workflows or specific business logic, timelines typically range from 2-6 weeks depending on the scope. Complex enterprise deployments with multiple systems and custom requirements may take 6-10 weeks. These timelines are significantly shorter than traditional integration projects, which often take 2-24 months.
Yes, you can trigger syncs manually through both the API and the Makini dashboard. The API provides endpoints to initiate syncs for specific entities (purchase orders, work orders, etc.) on a given connection. Manual syncs are useful when you need immediate data updates outside the regular schedule, when onboarding new customers, or when recovering from sync failures. Manual syncs follow the same incremental logic as scheduled syncs, retrieving only changed records since the last successful sync. You can also trigger full re-syncs that ignore the last sync timestamp and retrieve all records within the configured historical period.
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.
