PerplexityapiConnectors in the Perplexity Agent API
Agents on the Perplexity Agent API can reach GitHub, Slack, Google Drive, and Datadog without you passing credentials on every call.
Details
- An API Group admin connects each service once and every member of that group can use it
- Covers GitHub, Slack, Google Drive, and Datadog as managed connectors
- Pairing the GitHub connector with Sandbox lets a single run clone a private repo, change the code, and open a pull request, with the same access as your own GitHub account
- Anything outside those four services still goes through remote MCP servers, and Perplexity takes requests for new managed connectors by email
Best for
Agents that need to touch the same work tool over and over across many requests.
When to use it
You are passing the same server URL and token on every API call and want to stop.
Who benefits
Developers building on the Agent API, and the API Group admins who set up access for a whole team.
Staying informed is great. Staying ahead is better.
