Connector Assurance

Connector assurance documents what an integration can do, how data moves and refreshes, what access it needs, how it is monitored...

• Sync Direction Inbound, outbound, or bidirectional - documented per connector.
• Refresh Schedules Published cadence and expected delay per connector action.
• Permissions Minimum-access scopes listed and explained for each connector.
• Failure Procedures Detection, recovery, and reconciliation steps, documented.

What Connector Assurance Covers

Each connector standard addresses the same set of questions. Capabilities must be verified connector by connector - assurance does not promise uptime or instantaneous sync across all integrations.

• Supported Actions Every connector lists which actions are verified as read, write, or unavailable. No assumed capability without documented evidence.
• Sync Direction Each data object is labeled inbound, outbound, or bidirectional. The source of truth and conflict-resolution rules are stated explicitly.
• Refresh Schedule Published cadences distinguish scheduled from event-driven updates only where the connector supports them. Expected delays and reconciliation windows are included.
• Permissions and Access Required roles and permission scopes are listed per connector, with a plain explanation of why each is needed. FitnessKit AI applies minimum-access principles throughout.
• Monitoring and Ownership Connection health, sync status, and errors are observed continuously. The standard states what operators can see, who owns the response, and when issues escalate.
• API Dependencies Upstream APIs, authentication requirements, endpoint availability, version constraints, and usage limits are documented. Provider changes and their operator implications are noted.

An Intelligence Layer - Not a Replacement

FitnessKit AI connects your existing fitness stack - attendance, membership, coaching, and sales systems - without requiring you to replace them.

• No implied uptime Connector availability depends on the upstream provider's API. FitnessKit AI monitors and alerts, but cannot guarantee third-party availability.
• No universal real-time sync Refresh timing varies by connector and action. Check the published schedule for each connector before relying on a workflow that requires recent data.
• Human oversight required Automation assists your team - it does not replace it. All risk signals are recommendations. Member-affecting actions require human review and consent controls.

Integration Failure and Recovery Procedure

When a connector or upstream API issue is detected, follow these steps in order. Distinguish an upstream API incident from a FitnessKit AI connector issue before escalating.

• Detection FitnessKit AI monitoring identifies a failed sync, authentication error, or missed refresh window and surfaces the alert in the connector health dashboard.
  • Sync status alert
  • Error classification
  • Timestamp recorded
• Impact Assessment Identify which connector actions are affected, which data objects are delayed or missing, and which operational workflows depend on the affected records.
  • Affected actions listed
  • Data gap quantified
  • Workflow dependencies checked
• Containment Pause any automated workflows that rely on the affected connector data. Communicate to the relevant team that records may be delayed and should not be treated as current.
  • Workflows paused
  • Team notified
  • Data gap documented
• Escalation and Owner Assignment Assign a response owner. If the failure is an upstream API issue, log it with the provider and monitor their status page. If the issue is in the FitnessKit AI connector, engage support.
  • Owner assigned
  • Provider status checked
  • Support engaged if needed
• Restoration Once the upstream API or connector is restored, trigger a backfill where supported. Confirm the last successful refresh timestamp reflects the recovery.
  • Backfill triggered
  • Last refresh confirmed
  • Connection verified
• Reconciliation and Verification Review delayed records for accuracy. Re-enable paused workflows only after confirming data integrity. Document the incident, root cause, and any change to connector configuration.
  • Records reconciled
  • Workflows re-enabled
  • Incident documented

Connection Setup and Change Management

Before enabling any connector-dependent workflow, complete the pre-connection checklist. Changes to connectors are reviewed, tested, and dated before reaching production.

• Before You Connect Confirm system access and credentials, identify data scope and objects, designate an operational owner, define success criteria, and document the permission scopes being authorized. Verify with your system administrator before proceeding.
• Ongoing Governance Connector changes go through review, sandbox testing, and dated release notes before production deployment. Operators receive advance notice of changes that affect sync behavior or permissions. Periodic permission and dependency reviews are recommended every quarter.
