App catalog

All Apps supported by Connector, how each one is connected, and what you need to prepare.

The Apps page in the left navigation of the console lists every system you can connect to. Each card represents one type of App, and the number on the card indicates how many connectors you have already created under that App.

The top of the page provides three filter tabs and a search box:

Tab	Meaning
All	Shows all Apps, whether or not they are connected
Connected	Shows only Apps that have at least one usable connector
Expired	Shows only Apps whose credentials are no longer valid and need to be reauthorized

First decide whether an auth config is needed

This is the single most important thing to determine before you connect. Apps fall into two categories:

For Apps that need a config first, see Authentication overview for the fields and where to obtain them.

Apps that require an auth config

App	Authentication method	What you need to prepare
Salesforce on Alibaba Cloud	OAuth 2.0	The org domain, plus the Client ID and Client Secret of an External Client App
MaxCompute	OAuth 2.0	No credentials, only an optional authorization scope
Yuque	API Key	A Yuque token

Apps that connect directly

Platform-hosted

Data is uploaded to Alibaba Cloud Model Studio, where the platform parses and hosts it. No credentials from an external system are required.

App	Purpose	Generated tools
File connector	Hosts unstructured documents such as PDF, Word, and Markdown	Search files, Get file
Table connector	Hosts structured tabular data such as XLSX and XLS	Get table schema

The connection dialog contains the connector name, the connector description, and Storage location. Storage location currently offers only one option, Use platform storage, which keeps the data within the limited free storage resources provided by the platform.

Alibaba Cloud Object Storage Service

App	Purpose	What you need to prepare
OSS	Access files in Object Storage Service	An OSS bucket, with authorization completed and tags added

The connection dialog contains the connector name, the connector description, and Storage bucket, with an Authorize now entry next to it.

Databases

Data stays in the original database and is accessed in real time. Configuration is completed by importing a data source from DMS.

App	Purpose	What you need to prepare
MySQL	Connect to a MySQL database and run SQL queries	A MySQL instance registered in DMS
PostgreSQL	Connect to a PostgreSQL database and run SQL queries	A PostgreSQL instance registered in DMS
PolarDB-X 2.0	Connect to a PolarDB-X 2.0 distributed database	A PolarDB-X 2.0 instance registered in DMS

Select data source in the connection dialog offers Import a data source from DMS. As the console explains, this quickly imports a data source that already exists in DMS, so that data sources of all kinds are managed centrally through DMS.

DingTalk family

The connection dialog has a single field for the endpoint issued by the DingTalk MCP gateway. There is no connector name.

App	Purpose	What you need to prepare
DingTalk Docs, DingTalk Sheets, DingTalk AI Tables, DingTalk To-Do, DingTalk Calendar, DingTalk bot messages	DingTalk office collaboration	One MCP endpoint with credential per App

The button for these six Apps is Submit, not the Confirm used elsewhere.

Mailbox

The connection dialog has only two fields: Email address and Authorization code (generated after enabling the IMAP/SMTP service in the mailbox settings). The authorization code is stored encrypted.

App	Purpose	What you need to prepare
QQ Mail	Access QQ Mail over IMAP/SMTP	A QQ Mail address and its authorization code
NetEase Mail	Access 163 Mail over IMAP/SMTP	A 163 Mail address and its authorization code

The button for these two Apps is Submit, not the Confirm used by Apps that require an auth config.

Apps that connect through an authorization window

These Apps open no dialog. They open a separate window where you grant authorization in the target system.

App	Purpose	What you need to prepare
Yunxiao	Access Codeup repositories, branches, commits, and change requests	Signed in to Yunxiao in the browser, with the account in the target organization
Tencent Docs	Read, create, and edit Tencent Docs	The browser can reach Tencent Docs; sign in to a Tencent Docs account when authorizing

Common fields

Apart from the Apps that require an auth config, the DingTalk family, the mailbox Apps, and the Apps that connect through an authorization window, every connection dialog contains the following common fields:

Field	Required	Description
Connector name	Yes	Distinguishes multiple connectors under the same App. Up to 64 characters
Connector description	No	Describes the data content and its purpose. It affects how accurately an agent selects tools

The remaining fields depend on the App type. See the detailed instructions for each App.

Manage existing connectors

In the Connected users section of an App details page you can add a connector, rename one, view its details, and delete it. For the full description, see Connected accounts.
