Action services and integrations

Connect a service, prepare an action from a meeting, and review exactly what will be sent and where it will go.

Action services are in Alpha. Every external action requires its own review and confirmation, including actions prepared by a workflow.
Action services in Settings, with example connected destinations.

Connect and enable a service

Open Settings → Action services and choose a service. Follow its setup instructions: some use browser authorization, others need a bot token, webhook or administrator-provided credentials. Turn on its action permission when you want to use it. Your organization may need to approve the connection.

Slack and Jira open their provider sign-in pages. Google services request permissions for the action you choose. WhatsApp Business requires a business account and approved templates, rather than a personal WhatsApp login. The service row explains the required account details.

Add a service to a workflow

Add an Action service step in Workflows and choose its Service operation. The list comes from the same service catalog as Settings, so you can prepare a recipe before connecting the destination. Connect and enable that service before reviewing its outgoing action.

Review and send

  1. Open the prepared item in Action items and check its source passages.
  2. Choose Review service action. If setup is missing, connect the service in Settings first.
  3. Select the destination and edit the outgoing content, including recipients, issue details or event attendees where applicable.
  4. Review the complete item, then choose Confirm and send or Confirm and create.

Permission to use a service does not authorize every future send. The host submits the confirmed item directly to that provider using the connection stored on your device. Read the privacy policy for the export details.

Check the outcome

The item shows what the provider returned, such as Sent, Created or Rejected, and opens the created object when a link is available. Settings → Action services → Activity keeps the send history. If a result is uncertain, check the provider before sending again. A successful send stays in history rather than remaining a pending review.
