Connect apps

Nock can use supported connected apps—such as email, calendars, chat, and work tools—when a feature in your plan allows it. Connected-app access is available on paid plans, including Nock Own, and is not part of Free. A connection is permission to use an account; it does not authorize every action without regard to Nock’s confirmation rules.

Connect an app

1. Open Settings → Apps → Official or the Apps tab in Nock.
2. Search for the service and review the connection and tool details.
3. Choose Connect and sign in to that service in its own authorization window.
4. Return to Nock and confirm the app appears as Connected.

When you ask Nock to use an app that is not connected, it may show a connection card with the same flow. Some services offer a developer-app setup instead of a ready sign-in; use only setup controls that your account exposes.

Use and control a connection

After connecting, check that the app’s Agent access switch is on before asking Nock to use it. Nock uses an app only when it is relevant to your request; account availability and tool permissions still apply. Actions that change something outside Nock may require an approval card. Review the exact action before confirming it.

Connected-app use is subject to Nock’s fair-use protections, with more room available on higher plans. Free does not include connected apps. Check Settings → Usage for your account’s current service status. See Usage and limits.

Apps shared with NockBot

Your account’s connected apps are also available to your cloud bots. In the Nock cloud view, open Apps from the bot list to connect or disconnect an account-wide app. By default, each bot can use connected apps; open that bot’s face/model sheet and use the Apps switches to turn access off or on for that bot. The switch is labeled with the app and bot name (for example, “Gmail: [bot] can use it”). It changes only that bot’s app access; it does not disconnect the account.

Disconnecting from the cloud Apps page removes that app’s access for your bots and Nock on your Mac. Use the per-bot switch when you want to keep the connection but stop one bot from using it. A bot must still follow the connected service’s permissions and Nock’s approval prompts.

Use Control app access to pause one app without removing its connection, or Disconnect apps to remove it. Disconnecting does not undo actions already completed in the external service.
