Everything You Need to Know About Connecting Apps with Glances

Even if you connect merely 2 platforms with Glances, such as QuickBooks and monday.com, you can save hours of time per week with multi-tasking Actions, eliminate tab toggling, and reduce context switching. In today’s article, we’ll zero in on the topic of app connections and provide answers for everything you need to know.
How to connect your apps with Glances
If you are new to Glances, getting your favorite apps connected begins after initiating a free trial (no credit card required). You’ll be taken through some prompts to search and select your favorite apps, then connect them with a few easy steps. For most apps, only the minimally-required information is needed to securely connect with Glances, such as your login credentials per platform.
Here are some helpful support articles for connecting an app, editing a Glance, editing My Daily Glances, and sharing an app connection.
What does Quick Connect vs. Guided Connect mean?
As you go through the app connection process, you may see apps labeled as Quick Connect or Guided Connect. Quick Connect apps are those that can be securely added on your own right now, while Guided Connect apps are those that need some initial work with our team before they can be live, such as:
- Customization
- Additional coding to display search results or use Actions
- Working with the app’s API to make data available
