Enable connectors and connector tools
Use Mistral connectors — Outlook, SharePoint, Notion, Google Drive, … — as tools your agent can call. You need this when the agent should read or act on a connected service.
Prerequisites
Section titled “Prerequisites”- The
pi-mistral-nativepackage installed - An API key configured (Set up your API key)
-
Grant access to the connector — ask the agent to run the auth tool:
Get me the authorization URL for the Notion connector.mistral_connector_auth_urlreturns the URL; open it in a browser to grant access. The grant is stored on Mistral’s side — nothing is stored locally. -
Load the connector’s tools into the session:
Load the Notion connector's tools.mistral_connector_loadregisters the connector’s MCP tools as ordinary pi tools, usable from the next model request. -
Verify — the agent can now call the connector’s tools directly:
List my recent Notion pages.
Always-on variants
Section titled “Always-on variants”Two config surfaces keep connectors available without loading them per session:
Send the connector with every chat request — the model calls it server-side:
{ "connectors": ["notion"] }Register and activate listed connectors at session start:
{ "connectorTools": { "autoLoad": ["notion"] } }A configured name that is not authenticated warns at session start — never skipped silently.
