Use this when a tool your business relies on is not in the app list, such as your own software or a service built for your team.
What you can add
- MCP server: a remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, connected by its URL. It brings its own tools with it.
- API: any REST API, described once with its base URL, the methods Sanaf may use and your credentials.
Only an owner or a manager can add, change or remove one of these.
Add an MCP server
- Open Integrations and press Add custom.
- Choose MCP server and press Next.
- Fill in a Name and the Server URL.
- Pick the Transport your server uses: http or sse.
- Pick the Authentication: None, Bearer token, API key in a header or Basic (user:password). For a header key, type the exact Header name the server expects, such as x-api-key.
- Paste the key and press Connect.
The server must be reachable over HTTPS from the internet. A server running on your own computer cannot be reached.
Add an API
- Open Integrations, press Add custom, choose API and press Next.
- Fill in a Name and the Base URL. Sanaf's requests stay inside this address and cannot go outside it.
- Tick the Allowed methods: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH or DELETE.
- Pick the Authentication and paste the token.
- Add a Documentation URL if you have one, then press Add API.
Keys and tokens are stored encrypted, sent with each request and never shown again.
What Sanaf may do
Everything you add is listed on the Your systems tab of Integrations.
- MCP server tools all ask a manager before they run, until you change that.
- API reads (GET) run on their own. Anything that changes your data asks a manager first, until you change that.
To change it, press Tools and permissions on the system and pick Always allow, Ask for confirmation, Never allow or Follow trust level for each tool.
Check the connection
Press Check connection on the system. For an MCP server this runs the real handshake and shows how many tools Sanaf gets and their names. For an API it makes one GET request to the base URL with your credential and shows the result.
An MCP server's tools appear on its Tools and permissions screen only after a check has reached it, so run a check after adding one.
Turn off or remove a system
Open Tools and permissions, then Settings, to switch the system on or off. Off keeps the credential and your choices but puts the tools out of reach. To remove it completely, press Remove on the Your systems tab.
