For those new and existing customers looking to connect your data sources to Ambition... starting today the process is even easier.
Sandbox Mode
Every new integration now has Sandbox mode enabled by default.
The benefits of Sandbox mode are that:
- All created metrics within sandboxed integration will be hidden across the user-facing site
- All uploads and corresponding records/metrics can be checked from within the integration
- Malformed files will not block the processing queue
- Test files can be purged as necessary
Once testing is complete and you are comfortable exposing this new integration and it's corresponding metrics to your users simply toggle Sandbox Mode to Disabled.
File Processing Mode
We've now created two distinct file processing modes:
- Relaxed - Malformed files are ignored
- Strict - Malformed files block the processing queue
All existing integrations are Strict mode which means (as some of you are very aware) that when your system sends a bad file we must work together to diagnose/fix the issue and skip the file. This is great for a) quality control and b) when processing order determines metric accuracy... not great when certain legacy systems send irrelevant files.
All new integrations will start with Relaxed mode but this can easily be changed as necessary.
Stay tuned as we're close to launching an upgrade to our Salesforce integration!
