CRM and Integrations Updated
How do you choose a marketing API integration partner?
The short answer
Choose a partner who has connected systems like yours before, explains how data will move and who owns each field, and plans for errors and support. Ask for a written data map before any build starts.
Key points
- Experience with your specific systems.
- A written data map and field ownership plan.
- Error handling, alerts, and logs.
- Security and access practices.
- A support plan after launch.
Questions to ask
- Have you connected these exact systems before?
- Will you use a native connector, middleware, or custom code, and why?
- How do you handle API limits and failed requests?
- Who is alerted when something breaks?
- Who owns the code and credentials?
Why marketing knowledge helps
Marketing integrations decide what shows up in reports. A partner who understands attribution will make sure lead source and campaign data survive the trip between systems.

- Should we build integrations in house?
- In house teams can build them if they have time for upkeep. APIs change, so plan for ongoing maintenance either way.
