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.
Makini's unified API acts as a common denominator across all connected systems. We map each system's data structure to a standardized data model, exposing consistent endpoints regardless of the underlying platform. This means you write the same code to retrieve purchase orders from SAP, NetSuite, or Dynamics—the API calls and response formats are identical. You always get data in the same structure, making it easy to build consistent business logic. The unified approach eliminates the need to learn each system's unique API, manage multiple authentication methods, or handle varying data formats.
Makini sends webhooks for several event types: sync completion (successful or failed), connection authentication required (when credentials need renewal), connection status changes (online/offline), and system errors requiring attention. Each webhook payload includes the event type, timestamp, connection ID, and event-specific details like error messages or affected entities. You can configure which events trigger webhooks on a per-connection basis. For workflow-based integrations using Makini Flows, you can also set up custom webhooks triggered by specific conditions in your business logic, providing granular control over real-time notifications.
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.
