# What are Source and Target Integrations?

Entities can be defined as a type of Data certain Integration can either Import or Export and vary between Integrations.

Ex.1. Our [eBay](https://syncspider-support.freshdesk.com/en/support/solutions/articles/3000115636-how-to-integrate-ebay) Integration is able to send Orders _and_ Products_, and receive_ Refunds_,_ Products_, and_ Order Status_. Hence the Entities eBay has are:_

_•_ Orders _and_ Products _as a **Source Integration**._

_•_ Refunds_,_ Products_, and_ Order Status _as a **Target Integration**._

Ex.2 Our [Ecwid](https://syncspider-support.freshdesk.com/en/support/solutions/articles/3000115636-how-to-integrate-ebay) Integration can send Customers_,_ Orders_, and_ Products _and receive_ Customers_,_ Orders_, and_ Products_. This means that the Entities Ecwid has are:_

_•_ Customers_,_ Orders_, and_ Products _as a **Source Integration**._

_•_ Customers_,_ Orders_, and_ Products _as a **Target Integration**._

When creating a [Task](https://syncspider-support.freshdesk.com/en/support/solutions/articles/3000115449-how-to-create-a-task-), it is highly recommended to choose Integrations with compatible Entities. Here’s the full step-by-step process with screenshots.

1. **From your dashboard simply click the Create a task button:**
