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.
When customers change their system credentials, the existing Makini connection will lose access and workflows will begin failing with authentication errors. Makini provides webhook notifications when connections require reauthorization, allowing you to proactively notify customers. Customers can reconnect by logging into the system through Makini's authentication flow again, which issues a new API token. The reconnection process takes only a few minutes. Best practice is to implement connection health monitoring and automated alerts when connections require attention, so you can address issues before they impact operations.
The initial sync occurs when you first connect a system and retrieves historical data to establish a baseline. This includes records from a configurable time period (typically 30-90 days) and can take several minutes to hours depending on data volume. Initial syncs are complete snapshots of the requested data. Incremental syncs occur on subsequent runs and retrieve only records created or modified since the last successful sync. Makini tracks sync timestamps and uses them to query for changes efficiently. Incremental syncs are much faster, usually completing in seconds to minutes. This approach minimizes API load on source systems while keeping your data current.
Makini provides a `/sync-status` API endpoint that returns the current synchronization state for a connection. The response includes the last successful sync timestamp, sync status (in progress, completed, failed), any error messages, and the next scheduled sync time. You can query this endpoint to monitor sync health and detect issues. For workflow-based syncs using Makini Flows, each workflow execution is logged with detailed status information including start time, completion time, success/failure status, and any errors encountered. The Makini dashboard also provides visual sync status monitoring across all connections.
