# Integrations

Connect OutSmart with other software and manage data flow between systems.

**Integrations** connect OutSmart with other software so data can move automatically.

Use this section to understand how integrations work, how to set one up, and what to check before you start.

### What you do with integrations

* import data like customers and products into OutSmart
* export data like completed work orders to another system
* reduce duplicate entry across systems

### In this guide

* [**What are Integrations?**](/integrations/integrations/what-are-integrations.md)
* [**Set up a software integration**](/integrations/integrations/set-up-a-software-integration.md)
* [**Integrations FAQ**](/integrations/integrations/integrations-faq.md)

### Recommended order

1. Start with [**What are Integrations?**](/integrations/integrations/what-are-integrations.md).
2. Then [**set up a software integration**](/integrations/integrations/set-up-a-software-integration.md).
3. Use [**Integrations FAQ**](/integrations/integrations/integrations-faq.md) for specific questions.

### Important to know before you start

* Some integrations are built by OutSmart.
* Others are managed by the connected software provider.
* Keep your other software as the leading system for customer and product data.
* Most changes made in OutSmart are not sent back automatically.
* If you use multiple integrations, keep customer numbers and product codes consistent.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://knowledge.out-smart.com/integrations/integrations.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
