Key Points

- Connectors are managed through the cloud console at
console.x.ai. - Adding or removing connectors requires team management permissions, typically granted to team admins.
- Admins can provision connectors from a catalog or add a custom MCP server.
- Once provisioned, team members can connect their accounts on
grok.com/connectors. - Some connectors require additional admin setup beyond the initial addition step.
- Removing a connector may result in the removal of associated indexed data.
Context

This ensures that only approved services are integrated, maintaining organizational data governance. The process involves logging into the console, selecting a team, and navigating to Grok Business → Connectors.
Why It Matters
