+## 2024-03-12 Want to know how things work? Learn how Business Central integrates to other Microsoft services and products

+As developers and solution architects, developing in AL is likely only part of your job. In a world where customers operate in the cloud, integration to other Microsoft services and products is an increasingly important part of Business Central implementations. As children, many of you probably asked a lot of “how does that work?” questions and might have read the book “The way things work” by David Macaulay to satisfy your curiosity. In the Business Central product group we're no different and we asked ourselves: “Why not write the: The way Business Central integrations work" article to give an overview on, which integrations are currently possible and how they work.
