Aura connects in different ways depending on where you are:

Chat and Agents

More than 1,500 apps through Work Mode — Gmail, Drive, Slack, calendars, CRMs and more. Many public sources need no sign-in.

AI Builder

Built-in features, your own API keys and MCP servers. The Builder doesn’t use the 1,500+ chat apps.

Connecting an app

Ask for a task that names the app. If the account isn’t connected yet, use the connection card and sign in with your own account. Read the provider’s permission request before granting access.

​
Choose the right kind of connection

​
Account and permission boundaries

A connection authorizes the account you signed into, not every account at that provider. If you have several accounts, name the intended one in the request. Connecting Gmail does not automatically connect Outlook; adding an app does not grant access to another person’s private files. An expired connection, missing permission or provider outage can stop a task. Resolve the connection shown in the task before trying again; do not repeatedly request a send or edit without checking whether it already happened.

​
Example workflows

“Read tomorrow’s meetings and the related email threads. Prepare a briefing with attendees, decisions needed and source links. Do not send anything.”
“Read this spreadsheet, group revenue by month and create an Excel report. Save the finished report in the Finance folder.”
“Draft a Slack update from today’s completed tasks. Show me the draft first; do not post it.”
“Find the open deals assigned to me and summarize the next actions. Do not change any records.”
Capabilities vary by app and granted permissions. A familiar app name is not a promise that every action in that app is supported.
