Add integrations to your Glue Workspace
For most integrations, the setup is just sharing a link. For integrations that automate configured notifications to a specific thread or group, it's as simple as adding the integration to the thread.
Add an integration by sharing a link
When you share a link from a supported app in a thread, Glue automatically adds the integration to your workspace. From there, anyone in the workspace can use it.
The first time you share a link from an app, you may be asked to authorize it for your own account. Click Authorize and follow the prompts. After that, links from the app will unfurl with rich previews in your messages.
This includes:
You don't need to install anything before sharing the link — Glue handles the workspace setup for you.
Add an app to a group or thread for automations
Some apps can do more than show link previews — they can create new threads or post messages based on activity in the connected tool. These include:
To set up automations, first, add the app to the workspace, and add the app to the specific group or thread where you want them to run.
Add the app to your workspace
✅ Anyone in the workspace can do this.
Go to the Directory section of your inbox and find the Apps tab
Find the app you want to add and click it.
Apps already added will show an "Added" badge. If already added, skip to step 2.
Your available workspaces will show up and you can choose where to add the App or MCP Server (availability of these integration types depends on the specific app).
If there is a pre-built integration available, you will see the option to add an App → press the App + button and it will be added to your workspace in one click.
Workspace admins can also add integrations directly from workspace settings.
You must be a group admin or workspace admin.
Go to Group Settings → Apps tab.
Click Add next to the app.
Follow any authentication prompts.
Any thread member can do this.
Go to Thread Settings → Apps tab.
Click Add next to the app.
Follow any authentication prompts.
Per-app setup details
Some apps are available out of the box, and are available via special menu actions. For specific functionality on each one, see its page:
Please refer to the documentation for the specific app you want to set up to see any additional instructions about connecting and authenticating the app.
