# Passthrough

Passthrough enables you to make authenticated HTTP requests directly to an integration's API.

Terminal simplifies API requests to any of the integrations supported by Terminal using the connection tokens you've stored on behalf of your users. The requests are transmitted directly to the API of the integration and adhere to the specific API formats of each integration, not Terminal's standardized format. This approach is useful if you want to retrieve data that Terminal may not make requests for.
