Analytics & Data

What the Linkup connector can do

Linkup is a web search API built for AI applications that need current, sourced answers instead of stale training data. With a Linkup connection in a type.com Space, the agent can search the web and return a sourced answer, fetch a specific webpage as markdown, or check the account's remaining credits before a large research run.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Linkup

Can Claude search the live web through Linkup?

Yes. With a Linkup connection shared to a Space, the agent can search, fetch pages, and check credits in a thread, visible to the team.

What authentication does Linkup use in type.com?

Linkup uses an API key, added once by an admin when the connection is created, then shared with the Spaces that need it.

Can Linkup research run on a recurring schedule?

Yes. A type.com automation can run a recurring Linkup search, such as a weekly competitor scan, and post results to a channel.

Is this the same as an MCP server for Linkup?

Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
