What is an exportable truth log?

A machine-readable CSV or JSON file that records UTC timestamps, source, destination, action, status and an immutable record ID to prove what happened and when.

Why do exportable truth logs matter?

They provide lineage and audit trails so teams can answer who sent what and when, enable fast rollbacks, support consent verification and drive campaign decisions.

What core fields should a truth log include?

At minimum: timestamp (UTC ISO8601), source, destination, object, action, status, immutable record ID and optional error_code, variant_id or ticket_id for tracing.

How often should nightly reconciliation run and what does it do?

Run once per night to compare counts and checksums between systems, flag deltas, and write an exportable CSV/JSON summary for audits and review.

What quick stabilization steps should I run first for CRM connections?

Start automated heartbeats (60–300s), run schema validation and reject nonconformant records, centralize and rotate credentials, implement retry with exponential backoff, and schedule nightly reconciliations.

How should I handle field mapping and source→target rules?

Use a clear contract listing source and target fields and rules (eg preserve UUID, lowercase emails, validate MX, UTC ISO8601 timestamps), reject mismatches and log a code for failures.

How do I track consent, variants and campaign outcomes in logs?

Record opt-in state at send time, include variant_id for A/B tests and capture lifecycle events so replies and ROI map back to a single contact record.

What are practical next steps and governance to maintain stability?

Create a central log repository, enable health checks and nightly reconciliation jobs, assign an integration steward for data contracts and escalation, and report weekly on stability metrics.
