Procore Production Readiness Gate

Overview

Convert launch claims into verifiable evidence. This gate covers the integration and its Procore app contract; it does not declare Marketplace approval or provider certification merely because local checks pass.

Prerequisites

• Immutable release candidate and matching app version
• Data classification, permission map, environment matrix, and endpoint inventory
• Support, security, operations, rollback, and customer communication owners

Instructions

Step 1: Verify application contract

Confirm semantic version, release notes, components, callbacks, permissions, permitted-project behavior, installation instructions, and production credentials.

Step 2: Verify functional paths

Exercise token lifecycle, required reads, expected denials, approved mutations, pagination, files, webhooks, deduplication, reconciliation, and cleanup in the intended sandbox.

Step 3: Verify reliability

Prove handling for 401, 403, hidden 404, 422, 429, 503, timeout, ambiguous write, duplicate event, discarded event window, and provider outage.

Step 4: Verify security and privacy

Review secret storage and rotation, tenant routing, least privilege, log redaction, secure-file handling, data retention, deletion, and incident escalation.

Step 5: Verify operations

Establish Integration Health and API activity review, rate and backlog alerts, support intake, status-page dependency, runbooks, and on-call ownership.

Step 6: Decide explicitly

Record PASS, CONDITIONAL, or FAIL per gate with evidence. Require launch approval and preserve rollback triggers; do not convert missing evidence into a pass.

Authentication

Readiness tests use the selected OAuth 2.0 grant, environment-specific credentials, and intended user or DMSA permission boundary. Evidence excludes all tokens, client secrets, and webhook destination credentials.

Tool Discipline

Use Read and Grep to inspect release artifacts, tests, manifests, and evidence. Use Write or Edit only for the approved checklist, remediation, test, or redacted receipt; passing this workflow does not authorize provider-side promotion.

Output

• Evidence matrix for application, function, reliability, security, and operations
• Explicit gaps, owners, rollback triggers, and approval
• Launch or no-launch decision with provider-certification boundary

Return exact release identifiers, gate verdicts, evidence references, approvers, and unresolved risks.

Examples

A release passes happy paths but lacks proof for discarded webhook recovery. The gate remains conditional until a bounded outage test shows reconciliation closes the gap; it does not award itself Procore Marketplace approval.
