## Where to connect integrations in ApyGuard

All integrations are managed from the ApyGuard integrations panel.

1. Open **Settings** in the dashboard.
2. Go to **Integrations**.
3. Choose the category tab that matches the provider, such as **CI/CD**, **Communication**, or **Development**.
4. Find the integration card you want to connect.
5. Use either the toggle or the action button on the card:
   * **Connect first** opens the setup dialog
   * **Configure** opens the setup or follow-up flow
   * Turning the toggle on enables the integration
   * Turning the toggle off disables the integration

## How the integration cards behave

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Disconnected state" icon="plug-zap">
    A disconnected integration shows a `Connect first` action. Selecting it opens the provider-specific setup dialog.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Connected state" icon="badge-check">
    A connected integration shows `Connected` and can usually be disabled with the toggle. Some integrations also expose a `Configure` action for follow-up steps.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Credential dialogs" icon="file-input">
    Jira, GitHub, GitLab, and Postman require connection details inside an ApyGuard dialog before the integration can be enabled.
  </Card>

  <Card title="OAuth flow" icon="key-round">
    Slack uses an OAuth flow. ApyGuard redirects the user to Slack for approval and then returns to the integrations page after authorization.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Typical connection flow

1. Open **Settings → Integrations**.
2. Click **Connect first** on the integration card.
3. Enter the required credentials or continue through OAuth.
4. Finish the dialog flow and return to the integrations panel.
5. Confirm the card now shows **Connected**.
6. Use the toggle later if you need to disable the integration without fully removing its configuration.
