With an Egnyte connection, Claude can generate permission and file audit reports, bookmark folders, and comment on files, all from a thread your team shares in type.com.
How does type.com authenticate with Egnyte?
Egnyte uses OAuth. You sign in once when creating the connection, and an admin decides which Spaces can use it afterward.
