Integrations overview¶
Connect the tools your team already uses so Mention can learn from your real documentation, files, and conversations. Each integration brings in sources you can turn into assets—the building blocks Mention uses to answer questions and support learning.
Use the table below to compare what each provider offers and how you get started. For step-by-step connection help, see Connecting sources. After you connect, learn how to choose what counts in Managing assets.
Provider comparison¶
| Provider | Content types | How to connect | Activation limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Notion | Notion pages (structured page content) | Sign in with Notion and allow access to your workspace | 2,000 documents per integration |
| Confluence | Confluence wiki pages | Sign in with Atlassian and allow access to your Confluence site | 2,000 documents per integration |
| Google Drive | Drive files (including Google Docs, Sheets, and similar as exported pages); recent Google Meet transcripts | Sign in with Google, then pick files; Meet transcripts are listed automatically when available | 2,000 documents per integration |
| Dropbox | Files in your Dropbox (folder structure preserved) | Sign in with Dropbox and allow read access to files | 2,000 documents per integration |
| Box | Files in your Box account (folder structure preserved) | Sign in with Box and allow access to your content | 2,000 documents per integration |
| GitHub | Markdown (.md) files in repositories you grant access to |
Install the Mention app on GitHub and choose which repositories to include | 2,000 documents per integration |
| Slack | Conversation threads captured on demand, plus channel history exported as Documents | Sign in with Slack and add the Mention app to your workspace | 2,000 documents per integration |
| Intercom | Help Center articles and collections | Sign in with Intercom and allow access to your workspace | 2,000 documents per integration |
| Teams | OneDrive documents, Teams meeting transcripts, and chat threads captured via @mention |
Sign in with Microsoft and approve tenant access | 2,000 documents per integration |
For one-off items rather than a whole integration, see Manual Sources — files you upload from your computer.
Programmatic access¶
Beyond connecting content sources, you can also give external tools direct access to your Mention knowledge via the Mention MCP server. Tools like Claude's connectors connect to it and sign in with a Mention account through OAuth; the connection then sees exactly the Audiences that account is a member of. See MCP Server Overview for setup details.
Sync behavior¶
Across integrations, Mention keeps your sources reasonably up to date: content is synced on a daily schedule automatically. You can also run a manual sync when you need the latest version right away (for example, after a big doc update). For status indicators and what to do when a sync fails, see Managing and Troubleshooting Sources.
When you connect a provider that syncs documents, you can choose a start date: only documents modified on or after that date are discovered. This applies to every document provider, not just one — leave it empty to discover everything regardless of age.
Activation limits¶
- Integrations: You can activate up to 2,000 documents per integration (pages, files, or exported channel chunks — depending on the provider). Conversations and meeting transcripts do not count toward this limit.
Inactive items stay discoverable in many cases, but only activated assets are used the way you configure in Mention. See Managing assets for how activation works.
