FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Openperplex

Can Claude search the web with Openperplex?

Yes. With an Openperplex connection shared to a type.com Space, Claude can run a search, pull a page's text or markdown, or capture a screenshot, all from a thread your team shares.

How do I authenticate Openperplex in type.com?

Openperplex uses an API key, added once by an admin when the connection is created. Spaces doing research can use it without seeing the key.
