Personal integrations

Connect your own app accounts once so your agents and Bots can read or act in them on every device.

Integrations let agents and Bots work with the apps you use: email, calendars, documents, project tools and more. You connect your own accounts, and you decide whether agents can only read or also make changes.

Your integrations belong to your Vato account. They are available on all your devices, and they are not shared with your teammates.

Connect an app

  1. Open Settings → Integrations.
  2. Under Add an app, use Search for an app to find it, then click Connect.
  3. Enter an Account name, for example "Personal Gmail". You see this name later, so make it clear.
  4. Under Agent access, choose:
    • Read only: agents can view and search, without making changes.
    • Read and write: agents can view, create, edit and delete data.
  5. Click Continue. Your web browser opens the app's sign-in page.
  6. Sign in and review the permissions the app asks for.

Back in Vato, the account appears under Connected accounts on its own. If you closed the browser too early, click Reopen connection.

Connect several accounts

You can connect several accounts of the same app, for example a personal and a work mailbox. Give each one its own name. When a task could use more than one account, the agent asks you which one to use.

Let an agent ask for a connection

You don't have to connect everything in advance. When an agent needs an account you haven't connected, the conversation shows a Waiting for connection card:

  • It shows the app and the access requested: read only, or read and write.
  • Click Connect account to sign in. You can do it from any of your devices, including your phone.
  • The task resumes on its own once the account is connected.
  • Click Continue without connecting to refuse.

The request expires after 15 minutes. The computer running the agent must stay on until you finish.

How agents use your accounts

  • An agent always uses an account you chose explicitly. It never picks one silently.
  • A Read only account can't be used to make changes.
  • In Plan mode, agents can only read, even with a Read and write account.
  • Bots use the same connected accounts as your agents.

Manage your accounts

Connected accounts lists each account with its app, its access and its status:

StatusMeaning
ConnectedThe account is ready to use.
Check connectionThe account needs attention. Connect it again.

To remove an account, click the trash button next to it, then Disconnect. The account is no longer available to your agents and Bots on any device.

Click Refresh if the list looks out of date.
