GUI – Graphical User Interface – user interacts with software via the keyboard and mouse
CLI – Command Line Interface – user interacts with software via keyboard
API – Application Programming Interface – Software A interacts with Software B
APIs allow different programs to interact with each other
You can integrate two or more pieces of software in dozens of different ways. An API is just one of them. There are no “normal” integrations.
