Zapier Remote MCP connector tool

  • Updated

Connect Zapier Remote MCP to Optimizely Opal for access to over 7000 apps available in Zapier through Opal Chat, agents, and workflows.

Opal does not support individual authentication for Zapier tool connections. All Opal users in your organization share the same access level to the connected system as the authorizing user. 

For example, if you connect Google Calendar, all Opal users in your organization can access the specific calendar authorized by you, the connecting user.

In general, you should add tools that are "account to account," such as an analytics tool where typically all users have the same level of access.
