# Connections API

{% hint style="info" %}
[Connections](/latest/configuration/integrations/registering-metadata/connections/reference-guides/connections-reference-guide.md) allow you to register your data objects in a technology through a single connection, instead of registering data sources and an integration separately.

This feature is available to all 2025.1+ tenants. Contact your Immuta representative to enable this feature.
{% endhint %}

The connection API is a REST API which allows users to register a connection to Immuta with a single set of credentials rather than configuring an integration and creating data sources separately. Then Immuta can manage and enforce access controls on your data through that connection.
