# Can Govform integrate with non-Microsoft systems?

Source: https://govform.com/resources/documentation/article/help-centre-can-govforms-integrate-with-non-microsoft-systems
Topic: Architecture & integrations

**Yes, absolutely. Govform connects to non-Microsoft systems through configurable HTTP APIs, with native options for messaging and major cloud file stores.**

You can fit the service into your existing technology estate. APIs can retrieve information while someone completes a journey, then create or update records once the right checks or approvals are complete.

## Connect the services your team already uses

Connect data, notifications, identity and evidence
| Integration | What Govform provides |
| --- | --- |
| HTTP APIs | Configurable methods, URLs, headers, request bodies and response formats for systems with suitable endpoints. |
| GOV.UK Notify | Email and SMS actions using configured templates and journey values. |
| Cloud storage | File connections for Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage and Azure Blob Storage, alongside Govform storage. |
| Identity providers | OpenID Connect sign-in for compatible providers, plus passwordless and Cognito options. |
| Your reporting tools | Govform APIs for submitted data, analytics events and journey analytics. |

## Make the connection part of a smarter journey

-   **Use existing data.** Look up records to populate answers, show results or validate what someone has entered.
-   **Control when work happens.** Run actions at page steps or after submission, with conditions and review stages governing execution.
-   **Match security requirements.** Configure required credential headers and client certificates for APIs that use mutual TLS.
-   **Develop and test safely.** Prototype mock responses and separate QA and Production configuration support staged delivery.
