Connect Clam to Grok

Grok connects to Clam as a custom connector. You add your Shell's link in Grok's Connectors tab and sign in to Clam once, with no key to paste. From then on, Grok's email requests follow your Shell's rules.

Before you start

You need a Clam account with a Shell. Haven't made one yet? The Quickstart takes about 10 minutes. Everything below starts on your Shell's Install tab in the console, under Grok.

Connect Grok

1. Open Connectors

   Click Plugins at the bottom of the sidebar, then open the Connectors tab.

   Open Grok

2. Add a custom connector

   Click New Connector, then choose Custom.

3. Paste the name and the link

   Fill in both fields with the values on your Shell's Install tab, under Grok. Each Shell has its own name and link.

   NameClam · <your Shell's name>

   Server URL<your Shell's address>

4. Click Add Connector, then sign in to Clam and Allow

   Clam opens in a new window asking to connect your Shell to Grok. Click Allow.

   

   Let Grok use a Shell

   grok.com wants to connect to Clam.

   When you allow it, you are sent back to grok.com.

   Inbox helperyou@gmail.com

   It connects through this Shell, never straight to your Gmail.

   CancelAllow

Back on the Install tab, click Check connection after Grok's first request.

Try it

With the starter policy from the Quickstart, ask Grok:

Remove access

In Grok, open Plugins › Connectors, click the Clam connector, and click Disconnect.

In Clam, click Remove access next to Grok on the Shell's Install tab. Grok stops at its next request. Clam's removal is the one that counts: Remove access.
