Integrations
Integrations are a key feature of the FA platform and essential for businesses looking to streamline their operations and improve efficiency. The FA platform currently provides two powerful integration tools, Apache Camel and GraphQL, that enable businesses to manipulate data from FA Back or route data from and to the FA platform.
Apache Camel is an open-source integration framework that provides routing and mediation capabilities for the FA platform. It allows you to integrate the FA platform with other systems and applications via files and message transfers. With Camel, businesses can create complex integration flows with minimal coding and configuration to connect the FA platform with other systems. To learn more about routing with Camel on FA platform, see File integrations section.
GraphQL, an alternative to REST API, is a query language and runtime for APIs, and it is designed for flexible and efficient data fetching and editing. The FA platform's GraphQL implementation allows you to manipulate data from the FA platform using a simple and intuitive query language. This makes it easy to retrieve the data that you need while reducing the number of API calls and improving performance. To learn how to use GraphQL API in the FA platform, see API integrations section.
