# RapidBridge Overview

> Automated data synchronization from integrated accounts to your webhook endpoints

## What RapidBridge Does

RapidBridge handles the complexity of data synchronization:

| Feature              | Description                                |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| **Scheduling**       | Run syncs on-demand or on a schedule       |
| **Rate limiting**    | Automatic throttling to respect API limits |
| **Error handling**   | Configurable retry and failure behavior    |
| **Webhook delivery** | Data sent to your endpoint as it's fetched |

## Without RapidBridge

Building data sync yourself requires:

* Cron job infrastructure
* Rate limit tracking per integration
* Retry logic with backoff
* Query parameter handling per API
* Error monitoring and alerting

## How It Works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a Sync Job">
    Define which resources to fetch
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run the Job">
    Execute against a connected account
  </Step>

  <Step title="Receive Data">
    Get records via webhook as they're fetched
  </Step>

  <Step title="Handle Completion">
    Know when the sync finishes
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Webhook Event Sequence

```
sync_job_run:started     → Sync beginning, respond 200 to continue
sync_job_run:record      → Data record fetched, respond 200 to continue
sync_job_run:rate_limited → Hit rate limit, pausing temporarily
sync_job_run:completed   → Sync finished successfully
sync_job_run:failed      → Sync failed
```
