An integration is an app your playbook talks to — Gmail to send email, Slack to post a message, Google Sheets to read a row, and so on. Aident keeps the connection to each app so your playbook can act on your behalf. You’ll run into integrations in two places: right inside the Playbook editor, and on the Capabilities page in the left sidebar.

​
In the Playbook Editor

On the editor canvas, the ⚙️ Integrations section shows one pill for every app the playbook uses. The pill’s color tells you what to do.
Connected and working. The playbook can use the app as-is.
You haven’t signed in to this app yet. Click the pill, finish the sign-in, and come back.
Something about this reference can’t be matched to a real app or skill. Click Ask Agent to Fix and Aiden will repair it.
You don’t add integrations by hand — Aiden picks them based on your Goal and your Steps. Change the plan and the pills update themselves.

​
Connecting an App

The first time a playbook needs an app, you’ll be asked to sign in.
1

Click the integration pill

An orange pill in the editor, or the Connect button on the Capabilities page, will open a standard sign-in window.
2

Sign in with your account

Use the account you want the playbook to act from. This is a normal OAuth flow from the provider.
3

Approve access

Grant the permissions the screen asks for. Aident asks for what your current playbook or future actions may need.
4

You're done

The pill turns white and the playbook can use the app right away.
Aident never sees your password. Sign-in goes straight to the provider; Aident only receives a token you can revoke at any time.

​
The Capabilities Page

Open Capabilities from the left sidebar. The header reads “Capabilities” and shows the integrations catalog. Most connection work happens on the Integrations tab; depending on your account role, you may also see admin-oriented tabs.
Browse apps Aident can connect to, search the catalog, and use Connect or Disconnect on each integration.
The Connections page is separate. It manages MCP access, reusable skills, channels, and sandbox-related setup.

​
Managing Connections

If a connection expires, the pill turns orange in the editor. Click it to sign in again and you’re back in business.
Go to Capabilities and click Disconnect on the integration you want to remove. Any playbook that uses it will need to be reconnected before it runs again.
Open Connections and use the channel controls if a bot’s state looks out of date.
Disconnecting affects every playbook that relies on the app. Make sure no scheduled runs depend on it before you revoke access.

​
What Aident Supports

Aident has a growing catalog across communication (Gmail, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Telegram), productivity (Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, Calendar, Notion, Lark, Box), developer tools (GitHub), AI and media (Fal AI, Gladia), search (Exa, SerpAPI, Firecrawl), social (X), and storage (Dropbox) — among others.
Open Capabilities in the sidebar to see the full, up-to-date integration catalog. That’s the source of truth, not any static table in the docs.

​
Security

  • Sign-in goes directly to the provider over OAuth — Aident never sees your password.
  • Aident only asks for the permissions your playbook actually needs.
  • You can disconnect any integration from the Capabilities page at any time.
