Not ideal for
Unsupervised use with broad sensitive-data access or consequential write actions.
Common setup gotchas
- Plan, region, role and workspace policy can change what is visible.
- The live OAuth and action scopes—not this summary—are authoritative at setup.
Permission & privacy notes
Know what you’re opening up.
Messages, participants and attachments can contain personal or commercially sensitive data. Restrict the connected account and review every external send or post.
Connection screens and capabilities can change. Recheck requested permissions at setup, remove access you no longer need and follow your organisation’s data-handling policy.
Platform comparison
Same tool. Different connection.
“Verified” means the tool appears in the official platform catalogue or current first-party documentation. It does not guarantee access on every plan or surface. “Not found” records only what our checked sources showed—it is not a claim of incompatibility.
ChatGPT
Verified
Search permitted messages and channels, with selected actions controlled by workspace policy. Exact fields and actions depend on the live connection and source-system permissions.
- Capabilities
- read · search · draft
- Plan & admin reality
- Availability varies by plan, workspace policy, role, region and supported ChatGPT surface. Check the live Plugin Directory entry before rollout.
- Confirmation model
- Review OAuth scopes and the live permission screen. Require human confirmation before external writes, sends, publishing or data changes.
- Privacy note
- Messages, participants and attachments can contain personal or commercially sensitive data. Restrict the connected account and review every external send or post.

Claude
Verified
Search permitted messages and channels, with selected actions controlled by workspace policy. Exact fields and actions depend on the live connection and source-system permissions.
- Capabilities
- read · search · draft
- Plan & admin reality
- Listed in Anthropic's Connectors Directory (browsable in Claude, Claude Desktop and Claude mobile). Connectors are free to add, but a paid Claude plan is required, and the connected service's own subscription still applies separately.
- Confirmation model
- Review OAuth scopes and the live permission screen. Require human confirmation before external writes, sends, publishing or data changes.
- Privacy note
- Messages, participants and attachments can contain personal or commercially sensitive data. Restrict the connected account and review every external send or post.
- Runtime caveat
- Claude connectors run on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open standard Anthropic created. Capabilities can change without notice; recheck the live Connectors Directory entry and permission screen before setup.
Gemini
Verified
Slack is confirmed as a connector under Gemini Enterprise – Business edition. Review the live listing for exact actions and required admin authorisation.
- Capabilities
- read · search · draft
- Plan & admin reality
- Documented under Gemini Enterprise – Business edition, a separately priced product (around $21/user/month, annual commitment) aimed at small businesses and individual departments — not the same as Gemini for Google Workspace or the standalone consumer Gemini app. Salesforce's own administrator must authorise the connector in the Gemini Enterprise UI before an individual can use it.
- Confirmation model
- Review OAuth scopes and the live permission screen. Require human confirmation before external writes, sends, publishing or data changes.
- Privacy note
- Messages, participants and attachments can contain personal or commercially sensitive data. Restrict the connected account and review every external send or post.
- Runtime caveat
- This runs under Gemini Enterprise – Business edition, a distinct product from the consumer Gemini app or Gemini for Google Workspace. Preview-status connectors can change materially before general availability; recheck the live listing and admin authorisation before setup.
