I am interested in finding out if other users have added additional category types to gain more insights and value from this field. The current two types: API and Logical are limited and the type Logical is very general and catch all types. Thank you.

Yes, we recently initiated an effort to better document interfaces and came to a similar conclusion. We added SOAP, REST, sftp, messaging, and several other sub-categories in order to capture the additional detail.
Thank you DL Hobson, appreciate it, we are on the same page.
Instead we set up a new attribute of a filterable single-select list, with the many values the integration team requested.
Good find,
In reading the v4 documentation, it sounds like Logical interfaces are what we need the most.
Business data flow using the Logical Interface subtype. If you focus on business-oriented data flow, you should model your connections using the Logical Interface. This approach involves linking Applications and Interfaces and provides a comprehensive view of how business processes interact with different Applications through Logical Interfaces
We want to model logical data flow, but also identify “efficient” versus “inefficient” methods. Especially calling out things like CSV file exports, log shipping, FTP, etc. I’ll think about adding an attribute of transfer method to the interface fact sheet.
