Email & Messaging

What the Sendbird connector can do

Sendbird powers in-app chat, voice, and video for other products, with users, channels, and moderation managed through its API. With Sendbird connected to a type.com Space, the agent can create a group channel, add members to an existing one, or ban a user who's violating the rules, so a support or community team can act without opening the Sendbird dashboard.

One connection, many Spaces

Connect Sendbird once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Sendbird

Can Claude moderate Sendbird channels?

Yes. With a Sendbird connection shared to a type.com Space, the agent can create channels, add members, or ban a user from a thread.

How does Sendbird authenticate in type.com?

Sendbird uses an API key, added once by an admin when the connection is created.

Can channel cleanup happen on a schedule?

Yes. A review of inactive Sendbird channels can become a type.com automation that reports stale channels to a channel weekly.

Is this the same as a Sendbird MCP server?

Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
