The problem with using services / actions is that they don't get updated automatically like state, and thus it's harder to build downstream in a data-driven / observable way. For...

Also I don't think integrations generally use services for providing information, but instead to do actions. This is a very important distinguish in my opinion. For example, a third-party dashboard...

In addition, asking user to create an interval to poll data from integration has another problem: it could be out-of-sync. Because there is no mechanism for integration to tell the...
