Primavera Gateway is an application that facilitates sharing and synchronizing project, resource, and other data between Primavera applications and enterprise applications. By using providers, which are used as a channel to connect with the corresponding software application, Primavera Gateway enables you to combine management and scheduling functionality of Primavera applications with other enterprise software. Providers can reside on either side of a data flow connecting a source application with a destination application. For a quick synopsis, watch the Overview of Primavera Gateway video.
