Use Knack from Claude Code
Bring Knack context into engineering work while Type keeps app access attached to the teammate and workspace.
AI agent integrationKnack
Knack integration for multiplayer collaboration with AI agents using Claude Code or Codex
One governed connection your whole team and its AI agents can share, with approved actions and human review, so working in Knack never means pasting credentials into a prompt.
CategoryDeveloper Tools & IT
Automate Knack with Codex
Let coding agents ask for the right app action, preserve conversation context, and keep humans in the approval loop.
Connect open agent workflows
Use Type as the collaboration layer around OpenClaw and other LLM workflows that need app access.
Developer Tools & IT
What the Knack integration exposes
No-code database and business application platform for building custom web apps without coding.
One connection, many teammates
Connect Knack once, then decide which teammates can use it for threads, automations, skills, and coding work.
Representative actions
- Create object record
Tool to create a new record in a specific Knack object. Use when you need to add new data to a Knack database object. Requires object-based API key authentication.
- Create View Record
Tool to create a new record through a form view in Knack. Use when you need to add a record to a Knack object using a form view interface. Only fields that exist in the form will be used, and any record rules configured on the form will be triggered.
- Delete Object Record
Tool to delete a single record from a specific Knack object by its ID. Use when you need to permanently remove a record from an object. This action is permanent and cannot be undone. Requires API key authentication (X-Knack-Application-Id and X-Knack-REST-API-KEY headers).
- Delete View Record
Tool to delete a record through a view that contains a delete link. Works with tables, lists, searches, calendars, and details views. This operation is permanent and cannot be undone. Use only after confirming the correct scene_key, view_key, and record_id.
- Get Object Record
Tool to retrieve a single record by its ID from a specific Knack object. Returns the complete record with all field values in both formatted and raw formats. Use this for object-based access which requires API key authentication.
Connection
API and auth details
Knack documents APIs for no-code database applications and live app pages. Integrations can read, create, update, and delete records; query objects and views; work with files and forms; and connect custom business apps to external workflows using app IDs, API keys, and user tokens.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Knack
Can Claude Code use Knack?
Yes. Type lets an AI teammate use connected Knack actions from a governed workspace context, so Claude Code work can reference the app without copying credentials into a local prompt.
Can Codex work with Knack through Type?
Yes. Codex can collaborate through Type with app context, skills, and approved actions. The Knack catalog entry includes public integration details and example capabilities where available.
Is this the same as a Knack MCP server?
Type exposes connected app capabilities to AI teammates and coding agents through Type's integration layer. Teams use it when they want shared app access, human review, and teammate-level permissions around agent work.
