# Bring live data from your tools

> Connect Jira, Slack, Notion, GitHub and other apps so Mida can turn real tickets, threads and docs into boards.

Your team's work already lives in other apps: sprints in Jira, discussions in Slack, specs in Notion, issues in GitHub. Connect them to Mida and it can work with that live data on your board, for example showing the current Jira sprint as a kanban or turning a Slack thread into an affinity map. Your Concept Builders can use the same connections.

## Connect an app

1. Open Mida and click the plug icon (**Connections**) below the prompt field.
2. Find the app in the list, or type its name in **Search connections...**.
3. Click **Connect** and sign in to the app in the window that opens. Some apps ask for a detail first, such as your Jira site address.

MockFlow confirms when the app is connected. Click **Examples & tools** on an app to see example prompts and what Mida can do with it, such as searching issues or listing sprints in Jira.

## Use a connected app with Mida

1. In **Connections**, click **Apply** on the app. It shows as a pill above Mida's prompt.
2. Ask for what you need, for example _Show my current Jira sprint as a kanban_ or _Turn this week's #launch Slack thread into an affinity map_.

Mida reads the data from the app and builds the result on the board. Click **Deactivate** to stop using the app in your requests.

## Apps you can connect

The list includes Slack, Trello, Notion, Jira, Linear, GitHub, Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Gmail, Google Calendar, Asana, Airtable, HubSpot, Microsoft Teams, Outlook and analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Mixpanel. More apps are added over time.

## Which plans include connections

Slack and Trello connections work on every plan. Connections to the other apps are part of the Max plan. On other plans, those apps show **Unlock Connections**. See [MockFlow pricing](https://mockflow.com/pricing/) for details.
