PM Best Practice: Document Your API Integrations for Team Knowledge Transfer
When building custom reporting solutions like those covered in Eric's article, documentation is essential! Create a simple one-page reference that includes:
The exact API endpoints being used
Authentication requirements and where credentials are stored
How often data refreshes and who maintains the connection
Business context explaining why specific fields were selected
This documentation prevents reporting solutions from becoming "black boxes" that only one team member understands, ensuring continuity even when key personnel change roles.
