Katana MRP with Nexra

Connected, approved, proven.

Access and limits

Authentication: API key
Plans and access: API access is available on Katana plans that include the API add-on or Professional tier. API keys act with full access to the Katana factory they were created in.
Test environment: Use a Katana trial factory.
Rate limits: 60 requests per 60 seconds by default; HTTP 429 with Retry-After in seconds.
Pagination: page and limit; the X-Pagination header reports last_page.
Provider events: Webhooks for sales orders, purchase orders, manufacturing orders and stock events. Flows run on demand, on a schedule, or when a scheduled check finds new or changed records.

Before you build a flow

Page size is capped at 100 in Nexra; Katana's documented default is 50.
Rows of existing sales and purchase orders are not edited through these operations; order headers, statuses and new orders with rows are supported.
Purchase order status RECEIVED receives stock into the location; partial receiving with batch detail is not automated.
Manufacturing orders, recipes (BOMs), bill of materials rows, stocktakes, sales returns, serial numbers and order rows are read only; creating or progressing production, stocktakes, returns, refunds, bin transfers and order rows is not automated.
Customer address lists filter only by customer IDs and type; name and phone filters are not offered so no personal data enters the URL.
The serial number stock list documents no paging or filters, so it returns one page.
Deletes are not automated. Katana has no idempotency key; uncertain creates are not repeated.
