Step 1 of 8
Understand the permission model
A connector gives Claude your access to that tool — nothing more. It can read the Slack channels you're in, the Drive folders you can open. It can't grant anyone else access, and on most con

- Account
Connectors work on free and paid plans; paid plans get more connected-tool usage per day.
- Credential
Each connector authorises through that tool's own sign-in. Have your Google, Slack and Notion (or equivalent) credentials ready.

Adding a node, connecting two of them, and pressing Execute. If any of that is new, the free primer covers it in about ten minutes.
