Connecting to any system through Makini is straightforward. You select the product you want to connect to, log in with your credentials, and receive an API token. The process takes just a few clicks and works consistently across all 2,000+ supported systems. For most systems (85-90% of cases), you only need the instance URL, username, and password. Some systems may require additional steps like API token generation, and we provide detailed authentication guides for these cases. The connection experience is designed to be simple enough that non-technical users can complete it without IT support.
Makini implements automatic retry logic for failed webhook deliveries. If your endpoint is unavailable or returns an error status code, we retry delivery with exponentially increasing intervals starting at 30 seconds. Retries continue for up to 24 hours. If delivery ultimately fails, the webhook is logged but not delivered. You can view failed webhooks in the Makini dashboard and manually retry them. To prevent webhook loss during extended downtime, implement a polling backup strategy—periodically check the sync status and query for recent changes if no webhooks have been received within the expected time window. Design your webhook receiver to be idempotent, as retry logic may result in duplicate deliveries.
Makini uses standard HTTP status codes and structured error responses. Error responses include an error code (e.g., `AUTHENTICATION_FAILED`, `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED`), error type for categorization, a human-readable error message, and a unique request ID for support inquiries. Common status codes include 400 for invalid requests, 401 for authentication failures, 403 for permission issues, 429 for rate limiting, 500 for server errors, and 503 for service unavailability. Use the error code for programmatic error handling rather than parsing error messages. The request ID helps our support team quickly identify and investigate specific issues.
When a system becomes unavailable, Makini detects the connectivity failure and marks the connection status accordingly. Scheduled syncs will fail with connectivity errors. API requests to the connection will return error responses indicating the system is unreachable. Makini continues attempting scheduled syncs using exponential backoff—initial retries happen frequently, then progressively less often to avoid overwhelming the system when it comes back online. Webhooks notify you of the connection status change. When the system comes back online, normal operations resume automatically. For temporary outages, no action is required. For extended outages, you may want to notify the customer. Connection credits remain consumed during outages since the connection configuration persists.
