**Managed Sync** provides two easy-to-use APIs to pull high volumes of data from your users' integrations into your app, while respecting the data's underlying permissions:

* Sync API: Enable full syncs of your users' 3rd-party data with two API calls
* Permissions API: Enforce access control on ingested 3rd-party data in RAG

### Highlights

* Declarative ingestion jobs for files, CRM records, tickets, accounting data, and more
* Automatic backfill + incremental sync with failure recovery
* Record/document Permissions API for downstream queries
* Scale to hundred of millions of records without managing infrastructure

### Common Use Cases

* Knowledge ingestion for RAG (ie. files, knowledge bases, meeting transcripts, chat)
* Structured data ingestion (ie. CRM, accounting, ticketing)
