Activating personal connectors makes searches comprehensive and personalized, while always keeping your data private.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Personal Connectors Work<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Personal connectors let users securely connect their individual accounts like Slack, Gmail, or Google Drive to GoSearch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Admins must first enable personal connectors at the workspace level.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once enabled, each user activates their own personal connectors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>These connectors pull in user-specific data\u2014not shared content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosearch.ai\/help\/category\/data-connectors\/workspace-connectors\/\">workspace connectors<\/a>, which are set up by admins, personal connectors are activated individually and only show results from your own accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Activating Personal Connectors Matter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Personal connectors give you access to real-time data that\u2019s unique to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Even if a workspace connector is enabled, you should still activate the personal version.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Each <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosearch.ai\/help\/connector-overview\/\">connector type<\/a> pulls from different data sources, which impacts GoSearch results, GoAI responses, and Agent outputs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enabling both versions ensures you get the most complete and accurate results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Personal connector data is never indexed or shared. It\u2019s retrieved in real time, only for you, and based entirely on your query.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Benefits of Personal Connectors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Comprehensive search:<\/strong> Retrieve results from both organizational and individual sources in a single place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Personalized results:<\/strong> Find your own conversations, files, and events, making your search results relevant and specific to you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Enhanced privacy: <\/strong>Personal connector data is private to you and never becomes visible to colleagues or admins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Real-time insights:<\/strong> Information from your accounts appears in search results instantly when you connect them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Increased productivity: <\/strong>Save time switching between multiple applications and needing to remember where data lives.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Start with Personal Connectors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>From your GoSearch dashboard, navigate to My connectors in the left-hand menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Locate the app you want to connect (such as Gmail, Slack, Teams, or more) and click Connect.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Here you\u2019ll see what the search result matches on and what data GoAI fetches in real-time.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click Connect again and follow any further authentication steps that are prompted such as signing into your account or allowing GoSearch permission to fetch your data.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To disconnect a personal connector at any time, under Connected apps click the ellipses button to the right of the icons and click Disconnect.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Your personal connectors should now be enabled, giving you a tailored search experience across both work and personal data.
