Sign in to connected tools

Some tools connect to services such as Jira or Slack. For tools that use a service sign-in, you sign in once through Scenery and never give the tool your password. Your sign-in follows you, so a second laptop does not ask you again. See Tool sign-in.

Connect a tool with a service sign-in

1. In the portal, find the tool and choose Connect & Install.

   Expected: the button shows Opening and then Authorizing, and a sign-in window for the service opens.

2. Sign in to the service and approve access.

   Expected: the window closes and the tool installs. In Claude Code, type /reload-skills to use it.

If the window does not open, allow pop-ups for the portal and try again.

Connect a tool that uses an API key

1. Choose Connect API Key.

2. Paste your key. Add a label if you want, such as personal or work.

3. Choose Save Key, then Install.

   Expected: the button shows Key Saved, then Installed.

To swap the key later, choose Update key on the installed tool.

Tools your IT team signs in for you

Some tools show IT-managed credentials. IT set these up once for everyone. Just choose Install.

A few tools run only on your laptop and show Self-managed credential. Those need your own credential, and the tool’s card tells you what to provide.

When a connection expires

Sign-ins can lapse, for example after a password change at the service. You will see:

• Needs to be reconnected with a Connect button under Needs your attention on your home page.
• Connection expired with a Reconnect button on the tool. On an installed tool you can also choose Re-authorize at any time to sign in again.

Choose the button and sign in again. Nothing else changes: the tool stays installed.

If your access is cut off

If your IT team revokes your access, your connections end everywhere and the tools leave your devices. Contact your IT team. See Accounts.
