The integration checklist before you connect

Ask what actually synchronizes

Identify the records, fields and direction of sync. A connector described as two-way may synchronize customer names in both directions but invoices in only one. Ask about frequency, historical backfill and limits on transaction volume.

Look for operational controls

Check whether errors are visible, retriable and logged. Review permissions and whether the connector can delete records or modify closed periods. Decide who receives failure notifications and how long a failed sync can remain unresolved.

Plan disconnection

Find out what happens to previously imported records after authorization is revoked. Export the mapping rules and record the final successful sync. Removing an app should not leave an undocumented gap in your bookkeeping process.
