Integration documentation
The wiki page for an integration still lists an API that was retired, and the real auth method lives in a Slack thread from the last vendor workshop. New engineers replay the discovery every time.
Hypervault stores integration name, systems, endpoints, and configuration in an encrypted EU vault, with permissions for the engineers who own that connection.
Why store Integration documentation in a digital vault
Endpoints change and the wiki does not
Callers hit 404s. API endpoints on the vault item, next to systems involved, is the living map.
Auth method is 'the usual OAuth'
API keys, mTLS, and OAuth get mixed. Authentication method as a field stops a wrong client being built.
Config is in a personal Postman collection
When that engineer leaves, the collection goes. Configuration details and documentation links belong in the vault.
Two systems, one vague name
'The Salesforce thing' covers three flows. Integration name plus systems involved makes ownership obvious.
Who uses this template
Integration engineers
Keep endpoints, auth method, and config next to the systems they connect.
Solution architects
Hand a vault item instead of a workshop deck as the source of truth.
Vendor and partner engineers
Share documentation links under permissions without opening the whole internal wiki.
Fields in this template
Keep every record complete and easy to find. Existing fields stay as they are; extras are added only when a vault item would otherwise be incomplete.
- Integration name
- Systems involved
- API endpoints
- Authentication method
- Configuration details
- Documentation links
- Notes
How it works in Hypervault
Create from the template
Add an item from the Integration documentation template in your workspace.
Fill and attach
Complete the fields and attach supporting files where needed.
Share with the right roles
Give access only to the people who maintain or use this record.
Store it in a vault, not a spreadsheet
Create a workspace, pick this template, and keep credentials and supporting files encrypted in the EU.
