On demand data sync with external system
We are trying to integrate one of our systems with Salesforce and need some advice on where to go with this. We would like to have Salesforce gather the info from our third party system on demand.
Example: Someone clicks on an account. This would trigger an event to request and get the data from our external system.
We are aware of API governing limits and we will not hit these, but I just dont know where to start.
Any advice?

Greetings to you!
