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.
Yes, Makini provides extensive customization options for field mappings. Through the connection settings interface, you can view how each system's fields map to Makini's unified model. You can remap fields, add custom field mappings, or create entirely new custom fields that will appear in API responses. These customizations are connection-specific, allowing different mapping configurations for different customers. Mapping changes take effect immediately without requiring code changes. For standardized workflows, default mappings typically provide sufficient coverage. Custom mappings are most useful when integrating with heavily customized systems or when you need fields beyond the standard unified model.
All Makini webhooks include a signature header for verification. The signature is an HMAC hash of the webhook payload using your webhook secret as the key. To verify a webhook, compute the HMAC using your secret and compare it to the signature header using constant-time comparison to avoid timing attacks. Never process webhook data without verification, as this could expose your system to forged requests. Your webhook secret is provided when you configure webhooks and should be stored securely. Webhook verification ensures that only legitimate requests from Makini are processed by your application.
