Makini is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and undergoes penetration testing twice annually. We use industry-standard encryption protocols including TLS 1.2+ for data in transit and AES-256 for data at rest. Customer credentials are encrypted using secure key management practices. Our infrastructure follows security best practices including network segmentation, access controls, and regular security audits. For highly regulated industries or customers with strict compliance requirements, we offer self-hosted deployment options that keep all data within your infrastructure. We've successfully met security requirements for enterprises including financial institutions and government contractors.
Makini Flows is our embedded workflow automation platform, built on n8n, which we consider the best workflow automation tool available. It's fully integrated into Makini and runs on our infrastructure. Flows allows you to build complex integration logic using a visual workflow builder—no code required, though code is supported for advanced use cases. Workflows can be triggered by schedules, webhooks, API calls, or events from connected systems. You can perform data transformations, implement conditional logic, call external APIs, and orchestrate multi-step processes. Flows includes over 1,000 pre-built connectors beyond Makini's industrial systems, enabling integrations with databases, messaging platforms, cloud services, and more. Most customer activations are completed using Flows due to its flexibility and ease of use.
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.
Yes, through a combination of sandbox environments, test data, and Makini Flows. For testing different data states, use sandbox connections with predefined test scenarios. For testing system behavior like delays, errors, or specific responses, you can build test workflows in Makini Flows that simulate various scenarios. For testing with actual systems, set up dedicated test instances of your target systems. During implementation, we work with you to identify critical test scenarios and ensure your testing environment supports them. For specific edge cases or unusual system configurations, we can help create custom test scenarios.
