Get started with these key sections:
1
Connect an agent or assistant to CloudFiles. There are two ways to connect. A service such as Agentforce connects with MCP credentials that a CloudFiles admin creates in CloudFiles Settings, and acts as your CloudFiles account's system user. An AI app such as Claude or ChatGPT connects with the CloudFiles server URL: each person signs in with CloudFiles and approves the connection, and the app then acts as that person.
2
Understand what a connection can reach and how to control it. Every connection belongs to one CloudFiles account and acts as one CloudFiles user. On every tool call, CloudFiles checks that the connection is still active and that the user holds a license for the product the tool belongs to, then carries out the action through your account's existing connections, the same way it does for CloudFiles Flow actions. Admins revoke MCP credentials in CloudFiles Settings, and each person can disconnect their own apps.
3
See what an agent can do with CloudFiles. Tools are grouped by CloudFiles product, and each product's tools need a license for that product. Each tool is listed with what it does, the information it takes and what it returns.
