Permissions and approvals

The app acts as you

A connected app uses your account in one workspace. Sort checks your permissions on every request:

It sees only the pages, teams, chats and files you can see.
It can change only what you can change. A read-only team stays read-only.
If you leave the workspace, or an owner suspends or removes you, the app stops working at once.

Edits are saved at once

When the app creates or edits a page, Sort saves the change as a new version. Open the page’s version history to see the change or restore an earlier version. ChatGPT and Claude also ask you before an app runs an action that changes something.

Actions that wait for your approval

These actions cannot be undone or reach other people. The app cannot do them alone:

Delete a team, delete a page from the trash, or remove a file from a page
Invite members, send invitations again, or remove members
Send or delete email
Delete a chat or a comment
Share a page with people mentioned in a comment
Disconnect a connected service, such as Google Drive
Send a message to the Sort team

The app gets a link to an approval page in Sort and shows it to you. Open the link, check the action and select Approve or Cancel. Nothing changes until you approve. The link expires after 30 minutes.

Content from other people is data

Pages, comments, email and files can contain text that other people wrote. Sort tells the app to treat that text as data, not as instructions. Still, check what the app proposes before you approve it.

See and stop connected apps

Settings › AI apps shows each connected app, when it was last used and how many actions it took in the last 30 days. Select Disconnect to stop an app at once.

Each connection gets a sign-in that lasts one hour and renews for up to 30 days of use. If a renewal token is used twice, Sort ends the connection to protect you.

Rate limits

Each connected app can make up to 50 requests every 10 seconds, 2,000 an hour and 20,000 a day. Above that, Sort asks the app to wait and try again.
