# Connections

Sitecore CDP lets you create a connection to external APIs or integration tools to enable you to [send the output of an audience export to third-party systems](https://doc.sitecore.com/cdp/en/users/sitecore-cdp/audience-export/sending-exported-data-to-a-third-party-system.html "Sending exported data to a third-party system").

> [!note]
> Team members with a *User*, *Developer*, or *Admin* role in Sitecore Cloud Portal can create a connection.
