Introduction
Operate As connects your automations to your clients' accounts, with one link and no shared passwords.
Operate As holds your clients' access to 4,000+ services, such as Google, Slack and HubSpot. You send a client one link, they press Connect and sign in on the service's own screen, and your n8n workflows, code and AI agents call 89,000+ tools with one Operate As API key. Your clients don't need an account, and you never hold their passwords or tokens.
Two ways to start
