# Connect Checkbox

> Get a Partner API key from your Checkbox admin, then connect Checkbox to GC AI

Checkbox connects with a Partner API key that your Checkbox admin creates. You enter the key when you connect. GC AI stores the key encrypted and does not show it to the assistant. Checkbox is in beta.

## Connect Checkbox

<Steps>
  <Step title="Get a Partner API key">
    Ask your Checkbox admin to create a key in Checkbox under **Settings → Partner API Keys**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect in GC AI">
    Open **Settings → Integrations → Agent Connectors**, select **Connect** on Checkbox, and choose your **Environment**: `app.checkbox.ai` for production or `sandbox.checkbox-app.com` for your sandbox. Then enter the key in **API Key**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add your Account ID (optional)">
    Enter your **Account ID** if you want GC AI to start Checkbox workflows. Everything else works without it.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What you can do

With Checkbox connected, you can ask GC AI in chat to:

* Find matters on your boards and check where each one stands
* Read a matter's fields, comments, and attached files
* Create a matter, or update its subject and fields, such as status or priority
* Add an internal comment, or an external comment that reaches the requester
* Start a Checkbox workflow, such as routing a reviewed contract for approval

To include a file in a workflow's file upload field, upload it in Checkbox.
