Connections

Connect different data sources to Hex for use in analysis and tasks by the Hex Agent.

info
  • Available on the Team and Enterprise plans.
  • Only Admins and Managers can create or edit external connections.

Connections let you bring context from outside of Hex into the Context Studio so the Hex Agent can use it when reasoning about your workspace.

Pushing context to Hex

Upload guides from an external source such as a GitHub repository, so the Hex Agent can reference them alongside guides authored directly in Hex.

External guides are stored in Hex and are not fetched live from the source. You keep them up to date by pushing new content through the API, most commonly via a GitHub Action.

See Programmatically upload guides in CI for a full walkthrough, including the recommended hex_context_toolkit.yml workflow.
