Completed 2023-10-10: Webhooks - 'New company synchronized' notification triggers after all datasets are complete
From October 10, 2023, notifications for the 'New companyCompany In Codat, a company represents your customer's business entity. Companies can have multiple connections to different data sources. synchronized' webhookWebhook An automated notification sent from Codat to your application when specific events occur, such as when data syncs complete or connections change status. will only trigger after all datasets created during the initial syncSync The process of fetching the latest data from a connected data source. Syncs can be triggered manually or run automatically on a schedule. of a companyCompany In Codat, a company represents your customer's business entity.

Currently, this notification triggers after the first dataset queued when linking a companyCompany In Codat, a company represents your customer's business entity. Companies can have multiple connections to different data sources. is successfully synced.
After October 10, 2023, the webhookWebhook An automated notification sent from Codat to your application when specific events occur, such as when data syncs complete or connections change status. notification will only trigger when all datasets queued as a result of linking a companyCompany In Codat, a company represents your customer's business entity. Companies can have multiple connections to different data sources. are complete, and at least one of those datasets is successful.
Action required
This is a quality-of-life improvement that means you can rely on this notification to know when a companyCompany In Codat, a company represents your customer's business entity. Companies can have multiple connections to different data sources. is no longer in the process of syncing data.
If you have workflows that are dependent on the event of the first dataset completion, you will need to adjust these to expect the notification only after all datasets are complete.
Expected impact if no action is taken
This notification will be likely to arrive later than it currently does. If you have added code or workarounds that expect the webhookWebhook An automated notification sent from Codat to your application when specific events occur, such as when data syncs complete or connections change status. to be triggered when the first dataset is complete, you should remove or adjust these to align with the new behavior.
