Connect OpenAI so Vivacity can see an AI model provider and help you act on it. Your data stays read-only while Vivacity learns. Anything it suggests is drafted for you to approve - it never sends or changes anything in OpenAI without your sign-off.
OpenAI is an AI model provider, not a data source. Vivacity uses it only to draft and reason over the data you connect.

​
What Vivacity does with OpenAI

  • Power drafting and reasoning for your workflows.
  • Run inside Vivacity’s approval-gated runtime.
  • Used only on the data you connect.

​
What syncs

Vivacity reads the following from OpenAI (read-only):
  • Model access used to draft and reason
  • Not a data source - Vivacity only uses the data you connect
Vivacity only ever reads the data you connect. It does not write back to OpenAI unless you explicitly approve an action.

1

Open Connectors

In Vivacity, go to Settings → Connectors.

Confirm the connection

Vivacity runs a first sync. You’ll see a Connected badge when it’s ready (usually a few minutes).

​
Permissions & security

  • Read-only by default. Setup grants read access only.
  • You stay in control. Every suggested action is drafted for your approval before anything happens.
  • Encrypted & revocable. Credentials are stored encrypted; disconnect any time in Settings → Connectors.
See Data & permissions for the full picture.

​
Troubleshooting

Make sure you’re signed in to the correct OpenAI account with admin access, then retry. If a pop-up was blocked, allow pop-ups for Vivacity and try again. Still stuck? See Connection issues.
Vivacity syncs on a schedule. Trigger a manual sync from Settings → Connectors → OpenAI → Sync now, or see Data & sync.
OpenAI access can expire or be revoked. Open the connector and select Reconnect to restore it - your history is kept.
