Use Close with your AI.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Close, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Close. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Close owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I create new leads directly through the AI agent?

    Yes! The create_lead capability accepts a company name and an optional website URL. Your agent will create the lead record in Close and return the new Lead ID for immediate reference.

  • 02

    How does the API authentication work with Close?

    Close uses HTTP Basic Authentication. Your API Key is sent as the username with an empty password. Navigate to Settings > Developer > API Keys in your Close dashboard to generate a new key. The key is encrypted at rest and injected securely at runtime.

  • 03

    Can I view my sales opportunities and their current stages?

    Yes. The list_opportunities capability retrieves all active deals in your pipeline, including stage name, expected value, probability, and projected close date. Combine it with list_crm_tasks to check pending follow-ups associated with each opportunity.
