# Integrator

> A software engineer who connects PhotoRobot to ERP, PIM, DAM or e-commerce systems.

Also known as: integrators. Category: E-commerce and workflow.

An integrator connects one system to others through APIs, webhooks and file exchange. Integrators work with the API, webhooks and export feeds rather than with the robots.

## How PhotoRobot uses it

PhotoRobot distinguishes the integrator from the [operator](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/operator) and the [studio manager](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/studio-manager). PhotoRobot Academy trains integrators in the [Integrator Essentials](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/integrator-essentials) track.
