Vercel made Connect generally available, letting applications and automated agents request short-lived access tokens for outside services at run time instead of storing passwords and keys that never expire. The service now covers more than 100 connectors, including Slack, GitHub, Salesforce and Snowflake, and adds role-based permissions, audit logs and usage tracking. It is offered on all plans, priced per token request and per incoming event.
What changed
Apps stored long-lived provider secrets in environments or vaults, with manual rotation.
What it unlocks
