Any sync needs two phases:

- active state transitions (webhooks)

- reconciliation (api)

You can do reconciliation without active state transitions, but it usually takes awhile (slow and scheduled). However, it’s a requirement with webhooks because you don’t know if they are in-order or delayed or just broken. Thus, you need to reconcile your state every so often.
