Egnyte
Add Egnyte to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Embed an Egnyte integration so your customers can work their own files, folders, and permissions from inside your product, with governed agent access to the same content. Access runs through each customer's own Egnyte grant, so their existing permissions apply and your product cannot read content the connected account could not read itself. fastn handles per-customer authentication, pagination, and API upkeep, so onboarding a new Egnyte domain is configuration rather than a release.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let customers browse and pick files from their own Egnyte domain inside your product.
Write generated documents into a customer's own folder structure with their permissions applied.
Read file metadata, versions, and permissions so your product shows the current, allowed content.
Trigger your product when a file is added, updated, or moved in a watched folder.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent reads a document to answer a question grounded in the customer's own files.
An agent files or updates a document within governed permissions, with the action audited.
An agent reacts to a new upload and starts the next review step.
Example prompt
List files added to the client folder this week, show who uploaded each, and flag any shared externally.
Set up Egnyte in 4 steps
- 01Open the Egnyte connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authenticate their Egnyte domain with OAuth.
- 03Map the folders and permissions your product may access, then enable actions and triggers.
- 04Call them from your product, or expose them to an agent through the MCP server.
Why teams use the Egnyte integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship an Egnyte integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Egnyte account inside your product and work their files, documents and versions there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: permissions and versioning are easy to get subtly wrong, and mistakes expose content. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so an Egnyte update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Egnyte connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you let your product work with your customers' documents in place without wiring it twice.

Egnyte integration FAQ
How do I add an Egnyte integration to my product?
Enable the Egnyte connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Egnyte account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Egnyte client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Egnyte account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Egnyte account and only ever sees their own files, documents and versions. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this Egnyte integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent reads a document to answer a question grounded in the customer's own files.
Who maintains the Egnyte integration?
fastn does. When Egnyte changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Whose permissions does the Egnyte integration run under?
Each customer's own Egnyte grant. Where Egnyte holds a library, their existing folder and item permissions apply and your product cannot reach content the connected account could not reach itself. Where it processes content you supply rather than storing it, the call runs under that customer's own credentials and is logged per tenant.
Can my product create or update content in Egnyte automatically?
Where Egnyte supports writes, documents, entries and assets can be created, updated and filed from your product or by an agent within scoped permissions, with each action logged. Where it is a read surface, the same connection serves reads only.
What can I build with the Egnyte integration?
A common starting point: browse and pick files from their own Egnyte domain inside your product. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the Egnyte integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Egnyte does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
