Connection Flow

This explains what happens internally during a connection.


Full Flow

1. Your backend requests OAuth URL 2. Palactix creates connection_id 3. User is redirected to platform 4. User grants permission 5. Platform redirects back 6. Palactix exchanges tokens 7. Accounts are fetched 8. Connection marked as success

Behind the Scenes

During this process:

  • OAuth tokens are securely stored
  • Platform APIs are called
  • Multiple accounts may be discovered
  • Data is normalized

Failure Cases

Connection may fail if:

  • User cancels OAuth
  • Invalid credentials
  • Platform errors
  • Permission issues
