Before you connect
Questions about Glean.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Does Glean MCP work with my existing company account?
Yes, it connects directly to your current Glean instance using your API token. This means your agent gets access to the exact same data and permissions you already have.
Can I search across Slack and Jira at the same time?
Yes, the Connector allows your agent to pull data from multiple SaaS apps simultaneously. You can ask a single question and get results from across your entire workspace.
How do I add new documents to the search?
You can use the indexing capabilities to route new text directly into your corporate search logic. This ensures your AI agent is always working with the most recent information.
Can the AI give me actual answers instead of just providing links?
Yes, it can fire RAG mechanisms to return summarized AI blocks based on your data. It will read the documents for you and provide a direct answer in the chat.
Is my company data secure?
The Connector uses your existing Glean permissions, so the AI only sees what you are already allowed to access. It follows your company's established security boundaries.
How do I remove a document from the AI's memory?
You can use the deletion capabilities to permanently remove an indexed file. This is helpful for removing outdated documents that might confuse your AI's answers.
Can my agent get direct AI answers based on my company's data via Glean?
Yes. Use the 'get_answer' capability. It fires Glean's internal RAG mechanisms to retrieve a pure AI-generated response distilled from your indexed company knowledge flawlessly.
How do I search for experts in my company by their skills via chat?
Use the 'search_people' capability. The agent will retrieve information from your corporate active directory, matching user profiles, skills, and names to help you find the right colleague natively.
Can I index my own custom documents in Glean through the agent?
Absolutely. Use the 'index_document' capability. Provide a JSON object defining the ID, Title, and text content. The agent will route the payload into Glean's search logic synchronously.
Can I search across multiple data sources like Confluence, Slack, and Google Drive simultaneously?
Yes! The search capability queries all connected data sources in a single request. If you want to narrow results to a specific platform, use search_by_datasource with the datasource name (e.g., 'Confluence', 'Slack', 'Google Drive'). Use autocomplete to get intelligent suggestions as you refine your query.
Can I ask the Glean AI assistant questions about my organization's knowledge?
Yes. The chat capability sends a natural language question to Glean's AI assistant, which generates an answer grounded in your organization's indexed knowledge. including documents, wikis, Slack conversations, and Jira tickets. This is ideal for getting synthesized answers rather than just search results.
Can I index custom documents into Glean programmatically?
Yes. Use index_document to add a single document with a JSON payload containing title, body, URL, and metadata. For large batches, use bulk_index_documents to index multiple documents in one request. Use delete_document to remove outdated content and get_document to verify indexing status.
