Clari Integration Guide
Integrate Clari with CRM, revenue, workflow, and analytics systems through documented APIs, scheduled synchronization, supported exports, and customer-specific callbacks.
Clari integration options at a glance
Clari provides API and data-integration capabilities for customer environments, with REST APIs the likely primary standards-based option after tenant-specific endpoint and credential availability is confirmed. Integrations commonly involve CRM-derived Opportunities and Accounts, Users, Forecasts, and Forecast periods. Customer-specific bulk exports, scheduled extracts, or callbacks may be available, but public coverage is not consistently documented. Martini can consume confirmed Clari endpoints, poll them on a schedule, process supported exports, receive documented callbacks, transform payloads, and expose a normalized internal API. Credentials should be stored as Martini secrets, while pagination, incremental synchronization, idempotency, retries, and source-of-truth rules are implemented in workflows.
Common Clari integration patterns
Common Clari data objects used in integrations
Authentication and security considerations
Tenant-specific access
Clari API availability, credentials, scopes, and object coverage may depend on the customer organization, licensed modules, administrator approval, or partner access. Confirm the applicable API contract before implementation.
Credential protection
Martini stores Clari credentials and connected-application authorization in environment configuration or secrets rather than embedding them in workflows. Access should be limited to the workflows and environments that require it.
Data protection
Opportunities, Accounts, Forecasts, Users, and activities may contain commercially sensitive information. Limit payload retention and log exposure, avoid logging tokens or complete sensitive payloads, and apply the customer’s encryption, access-control, and regional data-handling requirements.
Authorization
Clari organization permissions and connected-application object and field permissions should be aligned with the Martini integration identity. If Martini exposes a normalized API, protect it with authentication, authorization, and field-level response controls.
Operational considerations for Clari integrations
Rate limits and retries
Control request rates and use exponential backoff for HTTP 429 responses, temporary 5xx failures, and CRM-originated synchronization bursts. Retries must not duplicate writes.
Pagination and checkpoints
Follow the pagination model documented by Clari and persist cursors, page tokens, export identifiers, or period checkpoints. Do not mark a synchronization window complete until all pages are processed.
Incremental synchronization
Prefer a documented modification timestamp, cursor, period filter, or export watermark. If no reliable change field is available, maintain a Martini-controlled watermark and run periodic reconciliation loads.
Idempotency and ownership
Use Clari IDs, source CRM IDs, or forecast-period and user combinations as stable keys. Define whether the CRM, Clari, or a warehouse owns each object to prevent loops and unintended overwrites.
Schema and testing
Forecast categories, fiscal periods, currencies, account hierarchies, users, and custom CRM fields may vary by customer. Use configurable mappings, validation, representative test data, and replayable failed records before production deployment.
Why use Martini instead of scripts or point-to-point integrations?
Orchestrate more than a script
Clari integrations often cross a CRM, revenue platform, warehouse, and operational applications. Martini coordinates these calls in workflows with explicit triggers, mappings, validation, business rules, checkpoints, and recovery paths.
Adapt to tenant-specific contracts
Because Clari API access and object coverage can vary by customer and module, Martini provides a maintainable integration layer that can consume confirmed endpoints without requiring every downstream application to understand Clari-specific credentials or schemas.
Expose reusable APIs
Martini can expose a controlled REST API that normalizes Clari Opportunities, Accounts, and Forecasts for internal consumers. This centralizes authentication, authorization, transformation, and error behavior.
Operate reliably
Compared with isolated scripts or point-to-point links, Martini provides reusable workflows, scheduled execution, structured error handling, monitoring, and deployment configuration for incremental synchronization and replayable failures.
