# MaintainX Data Handling

## Overview
Patterns and best practices for synchronizing, transforming, and managing data between MaintainX and external systems.

## Prerequisites
- MaintainX API access
- Database for local storage
- Understanding of data pipeline concepts

## Instructions
Follow these high-level steps to implement maintainx-data-handling:

1. Review the prerequisites and ensure your environment is configured
2. Follow the detailed implementation guide for step-by-step code examples
3. Validate your implementation against the output checklist below

For full implementation details, load: `Read(plugins/saas-packs/maintainx-pack/skills/maintainx-data-handling/references/implementation-guide.md)`

## Output
- ETL pipeline implemented
- Incremental sync running
- Data reconciliation tools
- Export capabilities (CSV, BigQuery)

## Error Handling
| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| 401 Unauthorized | Verify API key in environment variables |
| 429 Rate Limited | Implement exponential backoff, reduce request frequency |
| 500 Server Error | Retry with backoff, check MaintainX status page |

## Resources
- [MaintainX API Documentation](https://maintainx.dev/)
- [Apache Airflow](https://airflow.apache.org/) - Workflow orchestration
