    <span className="glossary-badge">Integrations</span>
  </div>

  API stands for Application Programming Interface. An API is a defined way for two software systems to exchange data and commands over a network. Instead of a person clicking through a vendor portal, KODE OS calls the vendor's API to discover devices, collect readings, or send actions.

  Most KODE OS integrations use REST APIs over HTTPS. Some use SOAP, webhooks, MQTT, SDKs, or building protocols such as BACnet and Modbus. See [What are Integrations?](/products/integrations/get-started/introduction) and the [Integrations catalog](/products/integrations/catalog).

  ### API Catalog

    <span className="glossary-badge">Integrations</span>
  </div>

  The in-product library of supported integrations inside Cloud BMS. Open `Data Sources`, then `API Catalog`, to search by vendor or system type and add a connector. The docs [Integrations catalog](/products/integrations/catalog) mirrors that library for browsing outside the product.

Devices publish messages to topics on an MQTT broker. KODE OS subscribes to those topics and processes readings as they arrive, instead of polling on a timer.

  Key ideas: the broker routes messages; a topic is a hierarchical path such as `building/floor1/sensor/temperature`; QoS (Quality of Service) controls delivery guarantees (0 at most once, 1 at least once, 2 exactly once). See [MQTT integrations](/products/integrations/capabilities/mqtt).
