Integration groups
- Chrome extension: turn a webpage into a Studio video workflow.
- Publish integrations: LinkedIn, X, and YouTube connections.
- Create integrations: MCP, n8n, and Zapier entry points.
- Make.com: currently shown as Coming Soon in the deployed UI.
Authentication access
Every signed-in user can create and manage credentials from Settings → API Keys. Some connectors, including supported Claude and ChatGPT flows, complete authentication inside the connector instead; follow the setup screen for the surface you are connecting.
Before connecting an automation
- Confirm that the card has a live Connect, install, or setup action rather than a Coming Soon label.
- Choose a small test input that contains no secrets or customer data.
- Complete one creation and retrieve the result before building a larger workflow.
- Record which account owns the connection and where the generated project is saved.
- Keep API keys and access tokens in the automation service's secret store, never in a prompt or shared screenshot.
Developer documentation
Use the API credentials, API getting-started, MCP, Zapier, and n8n guides in the Automations and developer category. API-key creation is self-service for every signed-in user; the availability and permissions of third-party connectors still depend on the connector and its current setup flow.
A safe first pass
- Confirm that the live integration has a Connect, install, or setup action.
- Connect a test account or a self-service API credential using an approved secret store.
- Run one minimal creation and retrieve its status and result.
- Record ownership and error handling before expanding the automation to customer data or production volume.
Keep going
- Connect and publish to social channels — Connect LinkedIn, X, and YouTube and distinguish available from coming-soon channels.
- API getting started — Continue with the developer-platform guide.
- MCP server — Continue with the developer-platform guide.
- Zapier — Continue with the developer-platform guide.
- n8n — Continue with the developer-platform guide.
