Læs siden på dansk An own connector is a selection of tools from one customer’s agreements. It gets its own URL, and the people allowed to use it add it in their AI assistant as an ordinary connector. You find your own connectors under Studio on the Your own connectors tab. This page is about the AI assistant type. An own connector for an AI bot is built the same way, but has its own rules. See AI bots.
An own connector always belongs to one customer and can only use that customer’s own agreements and CVR. See the rule in Studio.

Build an own connector

Everyone in the organization can build an own connector for AI assistants. The person who builds it becomes its owner.
1

Click Build your own connector

Open Studio, choose the Your own connectors tab, and click Build your own connector.
2

Choose the type

Choose AI assistant, and click Next. The type cannot be changed afterwards. Only administrators can choose AI bot.
3

Choose the customer

Choose the customer under Which customer is the connector for? The customer cannot be changed afterwards. If the customer is missing an agreement, move it to the customer first. See Customers.
4

Give the connector a name

Type the name under The connector’s name, for example the customer’s name, or what it is for.
5

Choose what it starts with

Under Start with you choose No tools yet or All reading tools. The tools always come only from the chosen customer’s agreements.
6

Create it

Click Create it for <customer>. If the connector costs extra, the window shows the price first. See Price for more own connectors.

Choose tools

The connector’s page shows the customer’s tools on one side and the connector on the other. Drag over the tools the connector should be able to use, or click + next to a tool. Your choices are saved automatically, and the portal shows Saved.
  • An own connector can have at most 50 tools.
  • The Tools in the connector meter shows how many are chosen, for example 12 of 50. It turns yellow at 40 tools, and at 50 the connector is full.
  • The more tools an AI assistant gets, the harder it is for it to choose the right one. The portal recommends keeping the connector under 40. If it needs to do a lot, split it in two, for example one for reading and one for posting.
  • Only the customer’s agreements and CVR are on the list. A paused agreement is not on it until it has been confirmed. See Customers.
Which tools you can choose depends on your role:
  • Administrator: As an administrator you see every tool. Others see only the ones they may use. These are the tools the organization has switched on. See Tools and new tools.
  • Member: You see only the tools your administrator has given you access to. If you do not have access to a system under Team, you cannot choose its tools.
Each person who uses the connector gets only the tools in it that they themselves have access to. So an administrator can put in a tool that a colleague cannot use.

Instructions for the AI assistant

The Instructions for the AI assistant field is optional. The text is sent along with the connector, so the AI assistant knows what it is for, for example Answer in English, and use the ledger figures only.
  • The instructions can be at most 2,000 characters.
  • They are saved when you leave the field.
  • If the connector is shared with colleagues, only an administrator can edit the instructions.

Add it in your AI assistant

The card The connector’s URL shows the connector’s address. It has the form https://mcp.consile.ai/studio/s_<id>/mcp, where <id> is 16 characters. Copy it, and paste it into the AI assistant as an ordinary connector. The Add to an AI assistant button shows the steps for Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, grok.com and local AI. In Claude they are:
  1. Open Settings and choose Connectors.
  2. Choose Add custom connector and paste the connector’s URL.
  3. Log in with your Consile account when you are asked to.
Each person logs in with their own Consile login. See also Connect Claude and Connect ChatGPT.

Who can use the URL?

Only the owner and the colleagues the connector is shared with get tools from the URL. Everyone else gets no tools, even if they are in your organization. An administrator can see all the organization’s own connectors in the portal. If an administrator wants to use an own connector a colleague has built, it has to be shared with the administrator.

Share with colleagues

Only administrators can share an own connector, and only with people on your team.
1

Click Share

Open the connector, and click Share. The window says, for example, Pick who should be able to use it in their AI assistant. It is still only for <customer>.
2

Choose the people

Select the colleagues who should be able to use it. Next to each person it says how many of the connector’s tools that person can use, for example Can use 6 of 16. If a colleague is missing access, Give access takes you to Team.
3

Save

Click Save. The portal says Sharing saved.
  • Sharing does not give access to more systems. Each person can only use the tools in the connector that they themselves have access to.
  • A shared connector still counts against the owner.
  • An own connector for an AI bot cannot be shared.
A colleague who has had the connector shared with them sees it under Your own connectors, but cannot change it. The page shows, for example, You can use 6 of 16 tools.

Who can change an own connector?

  • The owner and administrators can change the tools and the name, and deactivate and delete it.
  • Only administrators can edit the instructions on a shared connector.
  • A member sees their own connectors, the ones shared with them, and the ones whose owner has left the team. An administrator sees all of them.

Rename

The owner and administrators can rename the connector in the title at the top of its page. The URL does not change, so AI assistants that use it keep working.

Deactivation and activation

If an own connector needs to rest for a while, you can deactivate it instead of deleting it. Click Deactivate next to Delete, and confirm Deactivate <name>?
  • It keeps its name, tools, shares and URL.
  • The URL does not answer until it is activated again. The AI assistant is told that the connector is deactivated.
  • It does not count against the included own connectors.
  • It stays on the list with the Deactivated badge and on the Deactivated tab. The tab appears when there is at least one.
The owner and administrators can deactivate an own connector for AI assistants. You activate it again with Activate:
  • An administrator can activate all own connectors.
  • A member can activate their own, the ones shared with them, and the ones that say The owner has left the team.
  • The person who activates it becomes its owner, and the connector then counts against that person. The portal says You become its owner, so it counts against you.
  • If activating it costs extra because the included ones are used, only an administrator can do it, and the price is shown first. A member sees It costs extra to activate, because the included own connectors are in use. An administrator can activate it and share it with you.

When a member leaves the team

If an administrator removes a member under Team, this happens in Studio:
  • The member’s own connectors are deactivated. They keep their URL, their tools and the shares other colleagues have.
  • The member’s AI bots are deactivated and paused.
  • Shares to the member are removed.
  • A colleague with room can activate one of the connectors and becomes its owner. The list says The owner has left the team.

Delete

Click Delete on the connector’s page, and confirm Delete <name>? The connector and its URL go away, and AI assistants that use it lose access immediately. Your connections and your tools do not change.

Price for more own connectors

How many own connectors are included is in How many own connectors can you have? Under Your own connectors you see how many you have used, for example Own connectors: 3 of 3. Without membership and in the free edition, the organization has 1 own connector in total, and you cannot buy more. Once it has been built, nobody in the organization can build a new one until it is deleted or deactivated. More are available through the Consile Studio membership. Under the membership, an administrator can buy more for 49 DKK/month excl. VAT each (€6.50):
  • When the next one costs extra, the portal says The included own connectors are in use. That can happen even if you have room left yourself, for example when colleagues have used the shared pool. The banner explains why.
  • The window shows the price before the connector is created, for example +49.00 kr a month from today, prorated. It goes on the membership. and If you delete it again, it stays billed until <date>.
  • If you delete or deactivate a connector you bought, it is not credited. If you build a new one in the same period, it reuses the slot, and the window says No change to the bill: the slot is paid for until <date>.
  • A member cannot buy more. The portal says An administrator can buy more at a price per connector, or share one with you.
  • Under Subscription, the ones you bought are shown on the membership’s line, for example 2 extra own connectors.
