# Connectors

Connect Bluedeer to the apps and tools you already use.

## [General](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/general.md)

- [What is a connector?](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/general/what-is-a-connector.md): A connector lets the Bluedeer assistant reach an outside service, such as Gmail or a tool server you add, from inside your chats.
- [Where to find your connectors](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/general/find-your-connectors.md): Connectors live on the Customization page on the web and in Manage workspace on the phone.
- [Who can add connectors and which plan you need](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/general/who-can-add-connectors.md): Owners and admins add custom connectors, a custom connector needs the Pro plan or higher, and built-in services depend on your plan and on what the team has turned on.
- [How do I connect a service from a card in chat?](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/general/connect-a-service-from-chat.md): When the assistant needs a built-in service you have not connected yet, it shows a card in the chat that you use to sign in.
- [How do I approve, allow or stop an action from a connector?](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/general/approve-connector-actions.md): Some actions pause for your approval before they run, and you can approve one action, always allow a tool, or trust a whole connector.
- [How do I disconnect a service?](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/general/disconnect-a-service.md): Disconnect a built-in service from Connected accounts on the web, or from the Integrations screen on the phone.
- [What can a connector see and do?](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/general/connector-safety.md): A connector is a service run by someone other than Bluedeer, so check what you connect, what the assistant sends to it, and what it can change without asking.

- [Manage a custom connector's tools](https://support.bluedeer.ai/connectors/custom/manage-custom-connector-tools.md): Test a connector, refresh its tool list, choose which tools run and which ask first, turn a connector off, and remove it.
