# Integration Sequence Diagram Template

Sequence diagram template for visualizing Salesforce integration patterns with external systems.

## When to Use
- Documenting API integrations
- Planning data sync flows
- Designing event-driven architectures
- Explaining callout patterns

## Mermaid Template - Outbound REST Callout

## Common Integration Patterns

### 1. Request-Response (Sync)
```mermaid
%%{init: {'theme': 'base', 'themeVariables': {
  'actorBkg': '#ddd6fe',
  'actorTextColor': '#1f2937',
  'actorBorder': '#6d28d9',
  'signalColor': '#334155'
}}}%%
sequenceDiagram
    participant SF as Salesforce
    participant EXT as External API
    SF->>EXT: Request
    EXT->>SF: Response
```

### 2. Fire-and-Forget (Async)
```mermaid
%%{init: {'theme': 'base', 'themeVariables': {
  'actorBkg': '#ddd6fe',
  'actorTextColor': '#1f2937',
  'actorBorder': '#6d28d9',
  'signalColor': '#334155'
}}}%%
sequenceDiagram
    participant SF as Salesforce
    participant Q as Queue
    participant EXT as External API
    SF-)Q: Enqueue
    Q-)EXT: Process (later)
```

### 3. Pub/Sub (Event-Driven)
```mermaid
%%{init: {'theme': 'base', 'themeVariables': {
  'actorBkg': '#ddd6fe',
  'actorTextColor': '#1f2937',
  'actorBorder': '#6d28d9',
  'signalColor': '#334155'
}}}%%
sequenceDiagram
    participant PUB as Publisher
    participant BUS as Event Bus
    participant SUB as Subscriber
    PUB-)BUS: Publish Event
    BUS-)SUB: Deliver Event
```

### 4. Batch Sync
```mermaid
%%{init: {'theme': 'base', 'themeVariables': {
  'actorBkg': '#ddd6fe',
  'actorTextColor': '#1f2937',
  'actorBorder': '#6d28d9',
  'signalColor': '#334155'
}}}%%
sequenceDiagram
    participant SCH as Scheduler
    participant BAT as Batch Job
    participant EXT as External API
    SCH->>BAT: Start (daily)
    loop Each Batch
        BAT->>EXT: Sync Records
    end
```

## HTTP Method Reference

| Method | Purpose | Salesforce Use |
|--------|---------|----------------|
| GET | Retrieve data | Query external API |
| POST | Create resource | Send new records |
| PUT | Replace resource | Full record update |
| PATCH | Partial update | Update specific fields |
| DELETE | Remove resource | Delete external record |

## Error Handling Patterns

```mermaid
%%{init: {'theme': 'base', 'themeVariables': {
  'actorBkg': '#ddd6fe',
  'actorTextColor': '#1f2937',
  'actorBorder': '#6d28d9',
  'signalColor': '#334155',
  'signalTextColor': '#1f2937',
  'noteBkgColor': '#f8fafc',
  'noteTextColor': '#1f2937'
}}}%%
sequenceDiagram
    participant SF as Salesforce
    participant API as External API

    SF->>API: Request

    alt Success
        API->>SF: 200 OK
        SF->>SF: Process Response
    else Retry-able Error
        API->>SF: 503 Service Unavailable
        SF->>SF: Wait (exponential backoff)
        SF->>API: Retry Request
    else Fatal Error
        API->>SF: 400 Bad Request
        SF->>SF: Log Error
        SF->>SF: Create Case/Task
    end
```

## Salesforce Integration Components

| Component | Purpose | When to Use |
|-----------|---------|-------------|
| Named Credential | Auth management | OAuth, Certificate, Basic Auth |
| External Service | Auto-generate Apex | OpenAPI/Swagger specs |
| Platform Event | Async messaging | Event-driven integration |
| Change Data Capture | Track changes | Real-time replication |
| Outbound Message | Declarative callout | Simple workflow integrations |
| Apex REST | Inbound API | Custom REST endpoints |
| SOAP API | Inbound SOAP | Legacy systems |

## Best Practices

1. **Always use async** for callouts in triggers
2. **Use Named Credentials** for auth management
3. **Implement retry logic** with exponential backoff
4. **Log all integrations** for troubleshooting
5. **Handle partial success** in bulk operations
6. **Set appropriate timeouts** (max 120s for callouts)

## Customization Points

- Replace system names with actual integration partners
- Add specific endpoints and payload structures
- Include actual field mappings
- Show specific error codes and handling
