# Dataset integrations

In this section, we will explore the process for linking datasets to [integrations](/content/docs/integrations/index.html) so that privacy requests can be executed against all of your data, whether in a database or third party SaaS application.

## Linking a dataset to an integration [Permalink for this section](/content/docs/integrations/guides/datasets/link-datasets#linking-a-dataset-to-an-integration/index.html)

Database integrations require a dataset to describe the table or collection schemas and relationships. The following guide explains how to link an existing dataset to an integration. Read the [guide on creating datasets](/content/docs/integrations/guides/datasets/generate-datasets-ui/index.html) if you have not yet completed this step.

### Linking an existing dataset [Permalink for this section](/content/docs/integrations/guides/datasets/link-datasets#linking-an-existing-dataset/index.html)

To configure a dataset for use in a database integration for privacy requests:

1. Navigate to **Data map** → **View systems**.
2. Select your system.
3. Click the **Integrations** tab.
4. Select the database connection type (e.g. PostgreSQL or DynamoDB)
5. Provide appropriate database credentials.
6. In the **Dataset** field select your dataset from the list of available datasets.
7. Click **Save**.
