Best approach to sync third-party webhook events with Affluent API data models?

Hi everyone,
I’m building a system that needs to sync real-time events from third-party webhooks (e.g., transactions, conversions) into our internal use of the Poly Track Affluent API. The challenge is matching the webhook event types to the Affluent data model (metrics, dimensions, breakdowns) in a way that avoids duplicate or inconsistent records.

Has anyone here worked on a pattern or best practice for:

mapping webhook payload fields into Affluent metrics and dimensions?

deduplicating events when pulling from both webhooks and scheduled Affluent API fetches?

Handling out-of-order events when reconciling with the Affluent system?

Appreciate any insights or example strategies you’ve used in production. Thanks!
