Act across your apps from chat
Have the assistant use a connected app to get something done.
Intermediate · ~10 min · Prerequisites: a connected app
What you'll do
Send the assistant a plain-language request that targets a connected app, approve the action, and see the result land in the third-party tool.
The quick way: just ask
"Open a GitHub issue titled 'Fix login bug' in the web repo."
The assistant identifies the connector, constructs the API call, and presents an approval card. Confirm it and the issue appears in GitHub within seconds. You can adjust any field — title, labels, assignee — before approving.
Ask in plain language
Name the app and what you want done in a single sentence. You don't need to know the API or remember field names. The assistant maps your intent to the right action:
- "Send a Slack message to #releases: 'v2.4 is live.'"
- "Create a Linear ticket: 'Update docs for the new API', assign to me, priority urgent."
- "Reply to the last email from Jordan and say we'll have it by Friday."
If the connector needs more information — like which repo or which inbox — it asks one clarifying question before showing the approval card.
Approve the action
Anything that creates, edits, or deletes data in a connected app shows an approval card before it runs. The card lists every field the assistant will write so you can check for mistakes. Click Approve to proceed or Edit to adjust a field inline.
Read-only actions like searching or fetching a record run immediately without an approval gate.
You can cancel an approved action while it's in flight by clicking Stop in the streaming indicator. Once the API call has returned, the action has already landed in the third-party app.
Combine with your data
The assistant can pull from your workspace before writing to an app. For example:
"Find the Q3 summary doc in my knowledge base, then open a Notion page with that content."
It reads the KB, composes the page, and shows the approval card with the full draft. This lets you cross-post, archive, or sync content without copy-pasting.
Manage connections
To review which apps are connected, disconnect one, or re-authorize after a password change, go to Managing connections. You can also ask the assistant: "Show me my connected apps" for a quick status list.
