Web app users & API integrated accounts

Some users may choose to not use any integration and use the web app instead of an automatic integration. These users are essentially API integrated so they will see data as soon as it enters the Convictional network. This is true in the other direction as well though, the cadence at which users that do not use an automated integration receive and enter updated information depends on their personal work style and schedule.
