API tokens must be stored securely and should never be exposed on the client side or in public repositories. Store tokens in secure environment variables or dedicated secrets management systems like AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault, or Azure Key Vault. Never hardcode tokens in application code or commit them to version control. Implement proper access controls so only authorized services can access stored tokens. For production environments, use separate tokens from development/testing environments. Rotate tokens periodically and immediately revoke tokens if you suspect they've been compromised. Makini tokens provide access to customer data, so treat them with the same security standards you'd apply to database credentials.
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.
500-level errors indicate issues on Makini's side or with the connected system. These are typically temporary and retrying the request after a brief delay often succeeds. Implement exponential backoff for retries—wait a few seconds, then progressively longer intervals. If errors persist beyond a few retries, check the Makini status page for service disruptions. The error may also stem from the connected system experiencing issues rather than Makini itself. For persistent 500 errors, contact support with the request ID from the error response. Include details about when the error started, which operations are affected, and which connections are impacted. Our support team can quickly identify whether the issue is systemic or connection-specific.
Yes, through Makini Flows, which includes connectors for popular databases including Snowflake, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and others. This enables workflows that synchronize data between industrial systems and your data warehouse or analytics platforms. For example, you can sync purchase orders from SAP to Snowflake for analytics, or use database queries to drive integration logic. Database integrations use the same workflow builder as other integrations, making it easy to combine industrial system data with database operations. For direct database-to-database syncing, we can help design optimized workflows. Database connections are treated as custom integrations and may require additional workflow development.
