# Right to Integrate **Domain:** Interoperability / Sovereignty **Doc Type:** Developed Wiki Node **Maturity:** Developing **Collection:** [[collections/War With Empire|War With Empire]] ## Definition The **right to integrate** is the practical ability of an authorized participant to connect a new sensor, application, model, agent, or effector to a shared architecture through documented and governable interfaces. ## Significance Integration is a sovereignty issue when access to the common operational picture determines who can contribute or act. A right to integrate is not unrestricted access: security, testing, identity, and least privilege remain necessary. The boundary is whether certification protects the arena or becomes gatekeeping without ownership. ## Routes [[wiki/Common Data Layer|Common Data Layer]] · [[wiki/API as Sovereign Border|API as Sovereign Border]] · [[wiki/Credential Interoperability|Credential Interoperability]] · [[wiki/Gatekeeping Without Ownership|Gatekeeping Without Ownership]] ## Source - [[articles/gamification/America Loves Games and the Home Court Advantage|America Loves Games and the Home Court Advantage]]
