Makini is a unified API platform for industrial systems integration. We provide connectivity to over 2,000 ERP, CMMS, and WMS systems through a single, standardized API. Instead of building separate integrations for each system, you connect once to Makini and gain access to all supported platforms. This approach transforms integration projects that typically cost tens of thousands of dollars and take months into a manageable operational expense with deployment times of 1-2 weeks.
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.
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.
Testing should cover authentication, data retrieval, data writing, error handling, and workflow logic. Start by connecting a test system through Makini's authentication flow. Use sandbox or non-production instances of your target systems when available. Test API calls for each entity type you'll use (purchase orders, work orders, etc.) to verify data mapping and field coverage. Test error scenarios by providing invalid inputs or attempting operations without proper permissions. For workflow-based integrations, test each workflow step independently before testing end-to-end. Verify webhook delivery and signature verification. Test with realistic data volumes to identify performance issues. Include tests for connection failure scenarios and verify your error handling and retry logic work correctly.
