Abstract
Despite being a general observatory, and not a Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) oriented mission, INTEGRAL has contributed to several important discoveries in the GRB field. This has been obtained thanks to its unprecedented localization capabilities, and sensitivity in the soft gamma-ray domain. In this paper I will review the main results obtained during the last 10 years with, and thanks to, INTEGRAL GRBs, including the discovery of one of the few GRBs spectroscopically associated with a Supernova, the first measurement of variable polarization in the GRB prompt emission, the indication of the existence of a low-luminosity population of GRBs, as well as the recent application of GRBs as probes for the fundamental physics. I will mention the main global characteristics of the INTEGRAL sample, and make the point on the lessons learnt from INTEGRAL in the perspective of designing future GRB dedicated missions.
