Preparing API Data for Sync

Data-model considerations before building a connector.

CHAPTER 01 · OVERVIEW

Document your schema

Data-model considerations before building a connector.

Identify record keys, fields, types, required values and nested structures in the source and destination systems.

CHAPTER 02 · WORKFLOW

One controlled path from source to sync.

Every step stays visible before anything changes in your CMS.

01
Document your schema

Identify record keys, fields, types, required values and nested structures in the source and destination systems.

02
Choose stable record identifiers

A consistent identifier is important for matching existing records and preventing duplicates.

03
Plan error handling

Determine how invalid records, missing references, partial writes and retries should be handled before integration.

04
Connector availability

These are general preparation principles; a configurable API connector is not available in Smart Sync today.
