Ready for your integrations to go live?

Ensure you've double checked the following:

1. If your staff sign in through your identity provider, set it up on the `SSO` tab of `Settings > Profile and terms`, then select `Enable SSO`.
2. For each system that reads your data, select `New Credential` on the `API Access` tab and tick only the scopes it needs.
3. Decide whether AI assistants may connect: `Allow AI assistants to connect (MCP)` on the `API & MCP` tab stays off until you turn it on.
4. To post updates to a Teams channel, paste the workflow's `Webhook address` in the `Microsoft Teams` section, connect, then select `Send test`.
5. After the first connection runs, open `Integration logs` and check each call succeeded.
