Guru
Add Guru to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Embed a Guru integration so your customers can reach their own knowledge cards from inside your product rather than opening another tab. Access runs through each customer's own grant, so their collection permissions apply and your product cannot read a card the connected account could not read itself. fastn handles per-customer authentication, pagination, and API upkeep.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let customers search their own cards and collections from inside your product.
Read a card's content so your product shows the answer in context instead of a link.
Create or update a card from your product so knowledge written elsewhere lands where the team looks.
Trigger your product when a card is published or comes up for verification.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent searches the customer's own cards and cites the ones it used in an answer.
An agent drafts or updates a card within scoped permissions, with each change logged.
An agent flags cards whose verification has lapsed so an owner can review them.
Example prompt
Find the cards covering refund policy and tell me which ones are overdue for verification.
Set up Guru in 4 steps
- 01Open the Guru connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authenticate their own Guru workspace.
- 03Map the collections and card fields your product reads, then enable actions and triggers.
- 04Call them from your product, or expose them to an agent through the MCP server.
Why teams use the Guru integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a Guru integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Guru 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 a Guru update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Guru 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.

Guru integration FAQ
How do I add a Guru integration to my product?
Enable the Guru connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Guru account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Guru client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Guru account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Guru 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 Guru 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 searches the customer's own cards and cites the ones it used in an answer.
Who maintains the Guru integration?
fastn does. When Guru 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 Guru integration run under?
Each customer's own Guru grant. Where Guru 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 Guru automatically?
Where Guru 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 Guru integration?
A common starting point: search their own cards and collections from 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 Guru integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Guru does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
