Showpad
Add Showpad to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Showpad organises sales content by division and by tag rather than by folder, so what a seller can see depends on the division they belong to and the labels an asset carries. An embedded Showpad integration searches and reads those assets and their versions, reads users and divisions so visibility is decided by Showpad instead of by a cached list, creates shares for a buyer, and reads the engagement those shares produce. One detail is easy to miss: Showpad carries coaching and internal training material alongside buyer facing content, and the tags are what tell the two apart, so a search that ignores them will surface the wrong thing. fastn holds each tenant's credentials, follows the API and keeps every call audited per customer.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let each customer connect their own Showpad instance so their sellers search their own library from inside your product.
Read divisions and tags so the results a user sees match what Showpad itself would show them, rather than everything.
Create a share for a named buyer without anybody leaving your product, and keep the record of it on your own timeline.
Read engagement on what was shared so your product can show which asset a buyer actually opened.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent finds the asset that fits a deal stage and industry, and cites the version it used.
An agent prepares a share for an upcoming meeting and leaves a human to send it, with the action logged.
An agent reports which shared assets went unopened before a follow-up gets written.
Example prompt
Find the current customer story for this industry and tell me whether the buyer opened the last one we shared.
Set up Showpad in 4 steps
- 01Enable the Showpad connector in your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authorise their own Showpad instance so asset visibility follows their divisions rather than a shared login.
- 03Map the asset properties and tags your product searches on, and choose which engagement data you read.
- 04Call it from your product and expose the same connection to your agents through the MCP gateway.
Why teams use the Showpad integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a Showpad integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Showpad 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 Showpad update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Showpad 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.

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