# Flow Integration

The File System Connector Service can connect directly to Flow Integration. By doing so, any machine steps that uses a connector configuration of given connector service can be executed without any involvement of other parts of Flow (i.e. Flow Server).

One of the benefits of connecting the connector service directly with Flow Integration is that timeouts are eliminated. An integration can run practically forever waiting for the connector service to either process the request, or even for it to pick up the request.&#x20;
