Notion Developers now applies matching page edits and reports unmatched text or indentation in warnings, failing only when no edits match.
Partial update_content edits return warnings
When some update_content edits match and others don’t, Update page markdown and the notion-update-page MCP tool now apply the edits that match and list each miss in warnings with code no_match, or indentation_mismatch when the text is on the page with different indentation. This works for both markdown versions. The request fails only when no content-changing edit matches. Before, REST skipped misses without saying so, and MCP failed the whole call. See Update warnings.

Glean releases Skill reflection to keep Skills current, streamlines Assistant responses, and adds model controls and integrations for Klue, Power BI, and Informatica. The update also strengthens security, administration, and reliability, while moving web search from OpenAI to Brave.
Release version: 563
This release introduces Skill reflection to keep your Skills current, Auto mode model policies and a redesigned Models page, a cleaner Assistant experience with the collapsed Show work summary, new MCP and connector integrations including Klue and Power BI, and a broad set of security, administration, and reliability improvements. It also deprecates OpenAI Web Search in favor of Brave Web Search.
Major Launches
Keep Skills current with Skill reflection
Skills go stale as tools, processes, and team preferences change, and the corrections people make while using a Skill usually stay in the conversation. Skill reflection identifies feedback you've shared in chat that's worth keeping for future runs and proposes it as an update to your Skill. For example, if you keep asking a Skill to put the decision summary first, reflection can propose adding that instruction.
After about 10 learnings, Glean asks clarifying questions and suggests an update. You can also type /reflect at any time, the same way you invoke a Skill. You review the feedback behind each proposal and approve the change before it applies, so one-off corrections don't become permanent rules. Editors of a shared Skill can improve it the same way, so the Skill gets better as each editor contributes what works.
How to access: Available to anyone who can use Skills. Wait for Glean to suggest an update, or type /reflect in chat.
Learn more
Focus on answers with the collapsed Show work summary
Assistant now collapses its intermediate reasoning and tool calls into a single Show work summary once a response is ready. Instead of scrolling past step-by-step planning and tool activity, you see the finished answer first, with the full trail one click away. Expand the summary anytime to review exactly which sources and tools Assistant used and how it reached its conclusion. This keeps conversations easier to scan while preserving full transparency into how answers are produced. The feature is now available by default for everyone.
How to access: No action is needed. Select Show work on a completed Assistant response to expand or collapse the details.
Connect Informatica catalog tools to Glean with a new MCP template
Glean's MCP template library now includes Informatica Catalog Discovery, so admins can connect governed catalog search and metadata tools to Glean Assistant and agents. Users can then look up governed data assets and metadata from Informatica without leaving Glean, using their own Informatica permissions through OAuth. The template is published in Glean's unverified template tier, so review it carefully before enabling it broadly: an Informatica tenant admin must register Glean's OAuth callback URL and provide client credentials to complete the connection.
How to access: In the admin console, open the MCP server catalog, select Informatica Catalog Discovery, and complete the OAuth setup with your Informatica tenant details.
AI & Model Updates
See recommended models and balance cost with Auto mode policies
The Models page in the admin console now shows the recommended models for each task and how well your enabled models cover them, making it easier to confirm your setup matches Glean's guidance. On Glean-key deployments, admins can also assign departments to Auto mode policies — Economy, Balanced, or Frontier — that automatically balance model intelligence and cost, and can turn on automatic downgrades as users approach their monthly usage limit. Auto mode policies are available through Feature rollouts starting October 15, 2026 and become generally available on October 29, 2026.
How to access: Open Admin console → Platform → Models to review recommended models and coverage. On Glean-key deployments, admins can enable Auto mode policies from the Feature rollouts page during the rollout period.
Critical Updates
Tableau permissions now follow your configured authentication method
Tableau permission discovery now consistently follows the authentication method configured for the connector. Connections that use a personal access token preserve per-user access, while Connected App connections use the Permissions API. This removes unsupported combinations and keeps search access aligned with how your Tableau connection authenticates.
How to access: No action is required. The behavior applies automatically based on your existing Tableau connector configuration.
Gong folder-based call access is preserved during unrelated crawls
Fixed an issue where an unrelated Gong crawl could remove valid folder-based access to calls. Users who have access to calls through folder permissions now keep that access consistently.
How to access: No action is required.
Azure Files search access stays aligned with New Technology File System permissions
For organizations in the Azure Files connector beta, Glean now uses document-specific New Technology File System (NTFS) permission data to keep search access aligned with source permissions, stores document metadata and permissions consistently during indexing, and refreshes both whenever files change at the source. Together, these changes keep Azure Files results permission-correct as files and access change.
How to access: No action is required for existing Azure Files beta configurations.
Block specific users from ActAs impersonation
ActAs tokens let approved integrations act on behalf of a user. Admins can now block specific users — such as executives or other high-sensitivity identities — from being impersonated this way, covering both Global Token ActAs and user-scoped ActAs tokens. The control is opt-in: list the protected users' emails or user IDs in security.actAsProtectedUsers and enable the ActAs protected-identity redlist.
How to access: An admin must list protected users in security.actAsProtectedUsers and enable the ActAs protected-identity redlist. The control is off by default.
Update integrations that call the renamed usage-limit MCP tools
The usage-limit MCP tools set_usage_limit and evaluate_usage_limit are renamed to set_usage_limits and evaluate_usage_limits. The old names no longer resolve, so refresh your client's tool list and update any hard-coded calls to the previous names. Tool arguments and behavior are unchanged, so no other integration changes are needed.
How to access: Refresh the MCP tool list in affected clients and update references to the old tool names.
Trace actions to the agent run that triggered them
Action events in customer event exports now include a workflow run ID that matches the run ID on workflow-run events. This makes it easier to see which Assistant or agent run triggered each action when auditing activity. The ID is available in both raw and scrubbed event exports and is empty for actions executed outside a workflow.
How to access: No action is required. The field appears automatically in exported action events.
Deprecations & Sunsets
OpenAI Web Search is deprecated in favor of Brave Web Search
OpenAI Web Search is no longer available for new customer setups, and web search now defaults to Brave Web Search. Starting October 19, 2026, we will begin migrating all existing OpenAI Web Search instances to Brave Web Search. Existing instances continue to work until they are migrated and show a deprecated badge pointing to the replacement. Glean handles the migration, so there is nothing you need to change ahead of time.
How to access: No action is needed. Use Brave Web Search for new web-search configurations; Glean migrates existing OpenAI Web Search instances starting October 19, 2026.
Enhancements
Build topic guardrail rules with less friction
Topic guardrail rule editing now lets admins add multiple activity rows before entering text, making it easier to lay out a rule's structure first and fill in the details afterward. Required-field validation still runs when you save, so incomplete rules can't be published by mistake.
How to access: Edit a topic guardrail rule in Glean Protect and add activity rows as needed.
Add conversation starters to agents built outside the UI
Agents created outside the UI — through headless Agent Builder — now support chat conversation starters through trigger.prompts in the agent's spec.yaml. Teams that manage agents as code can offer the same starter prompts as agents built in the UI, so users get a consistent way to begin a conversation no matter how the agent was created.
How to access: Add trigger.prompts entries to the agent's spec.yaml and publish the agent.
Scope the Web SDK to a single agent
The Web SDK adds a restrictToAgent option that replaces the deprecated restrictToApplication, letting you limit an embedded Glean experience to a specific agent.
How to access: Set restrictToAgent in your Web SDK configuration and remove uses of restrictToApplication.
Export sensitive findings as a CSV file
Glean Protect admins can now export sensitive findings as a CSV file, with one row per finding, by creating a findings export with export type FINDINGS_CSV in the Governance API. The CSV opens directly in Excel or Google Sheets, making it easier to review, filter, and share findings with stakeholders who work in spreadsheets. Existing FINDINGS, DOCUMENTS, and ISSUES exports are unchanged and remain JSON Lines files.
How to access: Create a findings export with exportType set to FINDINGS_CSV using the Governance API.
Confirm staged agent changes before publishing
For deployments that use staged agent versions, publishing now always asks for confirmation. When change review is enabled, the confirmation shows the staged changes compared with the published version, so reviewers can verify exactly what will go live before it reaches users.
How to access: Publish a staged agent version in Agent Builder. The confirmation appears automatically where staged publishing is enabled.
Clearer condition labels for multi-value trigger fields
Agent content-trigger conditions on multi-value fields now read "has any of" and "has any value not in" instead of "is one of" and "is not one of." The matching behavior is unchanged — the new labels make it clear how a rule matches when a document has several values.
How to access: Edit a content trigger's conditions in Agent Builder.
Learn more
Share agents that are working well for you
The agent landing page now highlights sharing after you have used an agent successfully several times, making it easier to pass useful agents along to teammates at the moment they have proven their value.
How to access: No action is needed. The sharing highlight appears automatically on the agent landing page.
Approve access requests directly from Slack
Access request notifications in Slack now include Approve and Deny buttons, so owners can respond to requests for protected chats and artifacts without leaving Slack. This shortens the wait for requesters while keeping the owner in control of access.
How to access: No action is needed. The buttons appear in Slack access-request notifications when Slack notifications are set up.
Meeting briefing cards handle long custom sources
Long custom source names added to meeting briefing cards now stay within the card instead of spilling outside it.
How to access: No action is needed.
Give feedback on agent responses in Slack
Agent responses delivered in Slack now include feedback buttons, so you can rate responses and help improve the agents your team relies on.
How to access: No action is needed. Select the feedback buttons on an agent's Slack response.
More reliable Google Sheets and Gmail tools
Google Sheets tools now accept structured cell values alongside Markdown tables and can create blank Sheets without a content field. Gmail draft rate limits provide clearer retry guidance, and Sheet updates can recover from a transient timeout without creating a duplicate spreadsheet.
How to access: No action is needed. The improvements apply automatically to Google Sheets and Gmail tools.
Search Klue competitive intelligence from Glean
Klue MCP is now generally available. Admins can connect the Klue MCP server so users can search Klue competitive intelligence from Glean Assistant and agents, with results governed by each user's own Klue permissions. Teams that track competitors in Klue can bring that intelligence into the flow of their work in Glean.
How to access: In the admin console, open Connectors → Klue and set up the Klue MCP server. Users then connect with their own Klue credentials.
Learn more
Discover and query Power BI data in Glean
The Power BI connector is generally available. Admins can connect Power BI through Microsoft 365 so users can discover governed reports, dashboards, and semantic models in Glean and query live data in Assistant through Microsoft Fabric IQ MCP, all with their own Power BI permissions.
How to access: Connect Power BI from the admin console connectors page through your Microsoft 365 setup, then enable the Fabric IQ MCP integration for live queries.
Learn more
Add icons to custom People profile links
Admins can upload an icon for a custom People profile link configured on a connector, and People profiles show that icon next to the link. This makes custom links easier to recognize at a glance.
How to access: Configure the custom profile link on the connector in the admin console and upload an icon.
Azure Files crawls use Glean's standard frameworks by default
For organizations in the Azure Files connector beta, each configured connector instance now uses discovery, generic, and chunked crawls by default, improving crawl consistency and reliability.
How to access: No action is required for Azure Files beta configurations.
Cleaner Box setup experience
Box's unified setup now uses the standard display-name field, clearer unnumbered instructions, and help links that stay within their tooltip.
How to access: Open the Box connector setup in the admin console.
Smarter tool suggestions based on app usage
The admin console now ranks tool-setup suggestions by how many employees actually use each app, so the most valuable integrations surface first.
How to access: No action is needed. Review the updated suggestions in the admin console.
Use a separate Microsoft app for SharePoint and OneDrive
SharePoint and OneDrive setup now supports configuring a separate Microsoft app for each source, with permissions tailored to its connection mode. This lets you scope each app to only the permissions its source needs.
How to access: Configure the apps during SharePoint or OneDrive connector setup in the admin console.
Zendesk setup now uses OAuth
New Zendesk connector instances use OAuth authorization during setup instead of requiring an API token. Existing API-token instances keep their current setup flow, so no migration is forced.
How to access: Create a new Zendesk connector instance in the admin console and complete the OAuth authorization flow.
Learn more
Improved platform availability during transient stalls
When a server that runs Assistant and agents slows down briefly, Glean now routes new requests away from it sooner and gives it more time to recover before restarting it. This keeps responses flowing during momentary disruptions.
How to access: No action is required.
Fixes
Outlook search results stay scoped to the signed-in user
Fixed an issue where loading more Outlook search results did not verify that the next page belonged to the signed-in user. Results now always stay within the requesting user's own mailbox.
Faster chat loads for admins in large deployments
Fixed slow chat page loads for admins in deployments with many identity provider groups. Chat no longer downloads the full group list on every load.
Canceled Assistant responses now stop cleanly
When an Assistant response is canceled, loses its connection, or is interrupted by a server restart, the tool calls and background tasks it started now stop as well, instead of continuing to run, re-running in the next response, or appearing stuck. Interrupted runs end immediately with a final status.
Slack agents with the Workday time-off tool respond again
Fixed an issue where Slack agents that include the Workday List Time Off Types tool returned a generic error instead of responding.
Skill Creator role assignment works for all deployments
Fixed an error that could prevent admins from assigning the Skill Creator role to users and groups.

Notion Developers now lets comment-only connections retrieve their own bot user, making it easier to look up a bot ID without restricted-resource errors.
Comment-only connections can retrieve their own bot user
Retrieve your token’s bot user now works for connections that have only comment capabilities. Before this change, those connections got a 403 restricted_resource error, so they had no direct way to look up their own bot ID.

Smartsheet lets admins add users to plans or remove organization users from a unified Non plan users tab.
You can now add users to your plan or remove them from your organization from the Non plan users tab on the Seat types and true-up page in Admin Center. The tab lists users who belong to your organization but aren't on your plan, and users deactivated on your plan more than 30 days ago, in one place.

Notion Developers adds search property filtering and new MCP tools to list page backlinks and look up permission groups, helping users retrieve focused page data and identify accessible groups by name.
Return fewer page properties from search
Search now accepts the filter_properties query parameter, so you can return only the page properties you need. It works like it does on data source queries, except that search skips names or IDs that don’t exist on a page.
List page backlinks in Notion MCP
The new notion-list-page-backlinks tool lists the pages in the same workspace that link to or mention a page or database. It returns IDs, titles, and URLs, and only for pages the user can open. See List page backlinks.
Look up permission groups in Notion MCP
The new notion-get-groups tool lists the permission groups a user can see, with their IDs and names. People properties show a group only as space_permission_group-, so assistants can now turn that ID into a name, or find a group by name before setting it. See Get groups.

Notion 3.8: Context for your agents
Notion expands its shared context platform with agent and tool connections, reusable skills, granular database permissions, upgraded version history, and rebuilt synced databases. It also adds ChatGPT plan support, new AI models, and improved integrations and controls for teams and admins.
Your agents and teams run on context. If you switch agents, add a new tool, or welcome a new teammate, you shouldn’t have to explain everything again. With Notion, there’s a durable, shared place to remember what matters.
This update is all about context. Connecting data, tools, and skills so you’re free to use any agent or model.
With so many things changing, your context can stay in Notion.
Explore connections →
Connect your agents to Notion with MCP
Connect an MCP-compatible agent to Notion so it can read your workspace context and update docs and task trackers. Whether you use Claudes, Muses, GrokBots, Dots, or another agent, Notion gives them a shared place to find what they need, so you can switch agents without starting from scratch. Set up an agent with Notion →
And with Notion MCP controls, admins can see who connected each AI tool, check when it was last used, and revoke a person’s access without affecting other connections. Set up MCP controls →
Connect your Notion Agents to 150+ tools with MCP
Bring the tools your team already uses into Notion. MCP connections let Notion Agent and Custom Agents draw on context from those tools and take action across them. Create an account brief in Notion using HubSpot pipeline data, add Stripe billing details to a customer health review, or bring Cloudflare infrastructure details into a postmortem. And that’s just the start. Browse 150+ MCP connections →
Write a skill once. Use it with every agent.
Skills are the best way to teach agents how you work … and not just for engineers. Now, Notion is the best place to create, share, and keep them current. Sync your Skills across ChatGPT, Claude, and more with the new Skills API, which loads Skills from Notion into GitHub.
Already have Skills for your agents? Ask your agent to recreate them in Notion with MCP, then keep building your library there. Here’s a quick demo, and here are docs to learn more.
See every change by every person and agent
With agents and people making constant updates, version history has never been more important. So we’ve upgraded ours! You get a clearer record across pages and databases, with highlighted edits, detailed database changes, and attribution. Let your agents work while keeping their changes visible and secure. Review what changed, see who changed it, and restore prior versions with a quick click. Learn more →
Don’t pay twice. Use your ChatGPT plan in Notion.
Yes, you just read that right. If you have ChatGPT Plus or Pro, your subscription can now cover your AI usage in Notion. Just connect your plan, pick a GPT model, and go. We don’t add a markup. We just want you to have the best tools for the job, for the best price. Available for Business and Enterprise plans. Check out a quick demo and the docs.
Column permissions in databases
Notion databases give teams and agents a shared, up-to-date source of context. But both teams and agents need the right level of access. Column permissions were a top requested feature for years (we spent time getting this one right). They let database owners control which properties each person or agent can view or edit. Recruiting teams can collaborate on candidates without exposing compensation. Support agents can use account context without seeing restricted customer data. Watch the trailer from one of it’s creators!
Reintroducing synced databases
We rebuilt our synced databases, starting with GitHub, Jira, and Salesforce, so your teams and agents always work from the latest data. They’re faster, more reliable, and show a live health status for each sync. They work like any other Notion database, so you can add your own properties, create views, and trigger automations. At Notion, we build customer hubs by syncing Salesforce accounts and linking to meeting notes and feature requests, so every team works from the same current view of each customer. Learn more →
New week, new models
The labs are at it again. Seven new models all added, including GPT 6.1-Sol, GPT-6 Luna, Opus 5.5, and Sonnet 5.5. Use any of them knowing they’ll all know the latest about your team works.
And ICYMI, we’ve been evaluating how models perform across a range of knowledge-work tasks, using live anonymized traffic and judged by models. Check out our Knowledge Board →
More ways to connect and govern context
- Redesigned Connections settings: Search or browse by category, see how each tool connects, and preview example workflows. Admins can allow only tools verified by Notion or specific tools they choose.
- Notion notifications in Microsoft Teams: Get Notion mentions, comments, and access requests in Teams, then reply or respond without switching apps.
We can’t wait to see how Notion can be the backbone of your dock.

Glean releases Deep Research in the skill picker for Universal Key customers, adds Microsoft Fabric IQ and Loopio connections, and expands custom model options. The update also improves agent sharing and API controls, Azure Files search, browser companion and voice experiences, alongside security and reliability fixes.
Release version: 562
This release brings Deep Research to the skill picker for Glean Universal Key customers, adds the Microsoft Fabric IQ MCP template, and makes GPT-6 series models available through custom providers. It also adds Loopio connector setup, agent sharing and API token controls, clearer Azure Files search, and companion and realtime voice updates, alongside admin, security, and reliability improvements.
Major Launches
Connect Glean to Microsoft Fabric IQ
Admins can use the Microsoft Fabric IQ MCP template to discover and query Power BI reports and semantic models through Microsoft's Fabric IQ endpoint. The template gives teams a supported starting point for connecting Glean to Fabric IQ and using the resulting tools through an MCP server, subject to the required Microsoft and Glean permissions.
How to access: In the Admin console, open the MCP server setup experience and choose the Microsoft Fabric IQ template. Complete the Microsoft authorization and connection steps.
Learn more
Start Deep Research from the skill picker
Deep Research is a skill in chat for Glean Universal Key customers. Open the skill picker and select Deep Research, or type /deep-research and your question. The report is still a cited write-up from company sources and the web, and it still runs in the background until Glean notifies you.
On the Glean Universal Key, Adaptive, Fast, and Thinking are no longer choices. Glean routes each question, and Deep Research uses standard Assistant terms. Use the Deep Research skill when you want the long report.
If Deep research is still in the mode picker, your organization has not moved yet. Customer Key organizations keep Deep Research as a chat mode with the existing monthly quota until migration.
A chat that used the previous Deep Research agent shows a banner. Start new chat fills in /deep-research.
How to access: In Chat, select Deep Research from the skill picker, or type /deep-research and your question. An admin has to turn Deep Research on.
Learn more
AI & Model Updates
Choose GPT-6 series models with custom providers
GPT-6 series models are not automatically available to every customer. Organizations using supported, configured custom model providers can now select GPT-6 series models where those models are available. This expands model choice for teams that manage their own provider connections while preserving the provider, permission, and configuration requirements already in place for custom models.
How to access: In the Admin console, open your custom provider configuration and select a supported model from the models available to that provider.
Admin Features
Retire the Deep Research monthly quota on the Glean Universal Key
The per-user monthly quota, which defaults to 10 runs and has a maximum of 50, is retired for Glean Universal Key organizations. Saved quota values do not block skill runs. Glean routes each Deep Research question, and a run uses standard Assistant terms. On Enterprise Flex, standard models follow Assistant terms, and premium models consume FlexCredits. You can still turn Deep Research on or off, including for a subset of users.
Customer Key organizations keep Deep Research as a chat mode with the existing monthly quota until migration. On the skill, Deep Research uses the model selected for that chat. On the Glean Universal Key, that is the model Glean routes to.
How to access: Go to Admin console → Platform → Assistant → Settings and open Deep Research.

Enhancements
Configure Loopio as a knowledge connector
Admins can now configure Loopio in the admin console so Glean can connect to Loopio content as a knowledge connector. This gives your team another way to bring relevant Loopio knowledge into Glean search and AI experiences while keeping setup in the same place as other connectors. An admin may need to enable the connector, and availability may depend on rollout.
How to access: In the Admin console, open the connector setup area and choose Loopio. Follow the connection and configuration steps shown there.
A Halloween surprise on the homepage
On October 30 and 31, click the greeting on the Glean homepage to reveal a seasonal swarm of bats. This lighthearted experience is available for a limited time and does not change search, content, or admin settings.
How to access: Open the Glean homepage on October 30 or 31, then click the greeting.
Fix private GitHub skill imports
Private GitHub skill imports now request the correct connector authorization, use configured GitHub connector credentials when available, and retry after sign-in when access requires it. This fixes an import issue for skills that depend on private repositories and makes the recovery path clearer. Connector permissions still determine which repositories and content Glean can access.
How to access: In the Skills experience, start importing a skill from a private GitHub repository. Follow the GitHub connection or sign-in prompt if it appears.
Learn more
Keep embedded agent chats focused
The Web SDK's restrictToApplication option now keeps an embedded chat focused on a single agent. Users see that agent's chat history and a New chat button without the general navigation or chat header, making embedded experiences more focused and consistent.
How to access: Configure restrictToApplication in your Web SDK chat options for the embedded agent experience.
Learn more
Get email updates when usage-limit requests are approved
When an agent or user usage-limit increase request is approved, the relevant requester receives an email with the updated limit and a direct link to view usage. Agent owners and editors are also notified when an agent's limit changes. Workspace admins, super admins, and billing moderators can also receive a daily email summary when spend-limit increase requests are pending. These updates make it easier to track limits without checking the admin console manually.
How to access: No action is needed to receive an approval email. Admins continue to review usage-limit requests through the existing usage-limit workflow.
Review downvoted Slack responses by email
Customers who have chat feedback emails enabled can now receive email notifications when someone downvotes a Glean response in Slack. The email includes the submitted feedback, the question, the downvoted response, and a link to the Slack message when available. In channels and group DMs, the email includes the downvoted exchange; one-to-one DMs may include earlier turns when available.
How to access: An admin must enable chat feedback emails. After that, eligible downvotes in Slack are included in the configured feedback notifications.
Search Azure Files with richer filters and metadata
Azure Files search now supports more consistent file-type handling, created-date filtering, share and connector-instance filters, and clearer result metadata. Results can show creation and modification dates, owner, path, department, file share, storage account, and custom metadata tags. Links also follow the configured file or HTTPS URL format, while document permissions remain enforced.
How to access: Search content from an Azure Files connector, then use the available filters and result details. Use in: for a share or appinstance:"" for a uniquely named connector instance.
Use Glean companion in supported browsers
Glean companion is a browser-extension widget that works on highlighted text in supported browsers. You can use it to explain terms, find related documents and experts, improve writing, summarize content, or translate without leaving the page. Glean companion is turned off in Brave and may require additional browser permissions on some webpages.
How to access: Install the Glean browser extension, open a supported webpage, and highlight text. Select the Glean icon that appears next to the highlighted text.
Learn more
Make realtime voice easier to discover
A one-time in-product tip now appears on the voice button for eligible Glean key customers. It introduces the more natural, low-latency realtime voice experience so users can recognize when spoken, back-and-forth interaction is available. Only eligible organizations with the feature enabled can use realtime voice.
How to access: Open Glean and select the voice button when realtime voice is available for your workspace.
Create API tokens for agents from the share dialog
Agent owners and editors can create and manage an API token directly from an agent's share dialog. An agent API token provides programmatic access to that agent. The API area now appears first in publishing options and shows the token status with Create token and Delete actions. Admins can turn off editor token creation so only admins and agent moderators can create tokens.
How to access: Open an agent's share dialog, select the API publishing option, and use Create token or Delete when permitted by your admin settings.
Find sharing controls faster in the agent library
Agent library cards and the agent details view now place Share next to Duplicate, while the View usage icon is removed from those headers. The updated layout makes the most common publishing and collaboration action easier to find without changing the agent's permissions.
How to access: Open the agent library, choose an agent, and use Share from the card or agent details view.
Agent access granted notifications on Slack
When you receive access to an agent through direct sharing or an approved access request, Glean can now send a Slack DM in addition to the existing email notification. When sharing a chat about an agent, the share dialog can also grant the recipient Viewer access to that agent directly. These updates make access changes easier to notice and complete in one workflow.
How to access: Enable Slack notifications to receive access DMs. When sharing an agent chat, use the Viewer access option in the share dialog when it is available.
See shared work in trending discovery
Discovery experiences that explicitly request shared work can now include shared-work signals in trending results. Document access permissions continue to apply, so users only see content they are allowed to view. This helps relevant shared work surface in discovery experiences without changing the underlying permissions on that content.
How to access: Use a discovery experience that requests shared work. No additional setup is required for users.
Connect Gemini to Glean through MCP
Glean now provides a dedicated MCP server for Gemini with core Glean tools, including search, document reading, code search, and people search. Admins can also copy a Gemini tool specification from the MCP server page and paste it into Google's Gemini Agent Registry. This gives teams a more direct setup path for connecting Gemini to authorized Glean content.
How to access: In the Admin console, open the MCP server page for Gemini. Use the provided setup details, then copy the tool specification into the Gemini Agent Registry when configuring the connection.
Clarify Box API allocation settings
The Box connector setup field formerly labeled Monthly QPS allocation is now labeled Monthly API call allocation. The new label makes clear that the value represents a monthly call count, not a per-second rate, so admins can configure the connector with less ambiguity.
How to access: Open the Box connector configuration in the Admin console and use Monthly API call allocation.
Keep topic memories aligned with agent permissions
Topic memories for identity-backed agents now update to match the agent's current viewer, editor, and general-access permissions after publication and later access changes. Newly created topic memories are also updated asynchronously. This helps keep memory access aligned with the permissions of the agent that uses it.
How to access: No user action is needed. Agent and memory permissions are synchronized as access changes are published.
Strengthen GCP Node Agent deployment identities
GCP deployments now provision a dedicated service account and Cloud SQL IAM user for Node Agent. This creates a narrowly scoped deployment identity with access to the frontend Cloud SQL instance, deployment configuration, key management, and observability services. The identity is provisioned on every deployment; Node Agent pods use it when the Node Agent capability is enabled.
How to access: No end-user action is needed. GCP administrators can review the deployment configuration and Node Agent setting in their existing deployment workflow.
Improve upgrade reliability for private-beta tools
Deployment upgrades now preserve the capitalization of existing tool names. This prevents affected private-beta tools from becoming unavailable when Code Writer tools are added during an upgrade.
How to access: No action is needed. The protection applies during supported deployment upgrades.
Attribute MCP tool calls more accurately in Insights
MCP Insights now credits calls made through run_tool to the tool that actually ran, such as a Jira or Slack tool under its MCP server name, instead of attributing the call to run_tool itself. Each dispatched tool call is counted once, historical run_tool entries are no longer shown, and usage events include each tool dispatched through run_tool.
How to access: Open MCP Insights in the Admin console. No additional setup is required.
Capture more agent context in customer event logs
Customer event log entries now include an agent's WorkflowId and an agent schedule's SubscriptionId when an action is taken on a specific agent or schedule. These identifiers help administrators and support teams trace activity to a specific agent run or scheduled trigger.
How to access: Review customer event logs through your existing logging workflow. No additional user action is required.
Fixes
Protect restricted tools when duplicating agents
When you duplicate an auto mode agent, custom tools and MCP tools that you are not allowed to add to agents are now removed from the duplicate instead of being copied. If a tool is removed, Glean shows a message asking you to reconfigure the affected steps. This helps prevent a duplicated agent from retaining tools that the new owner or editor is not permitted to use.
Analyze indexed documents when live fetch is turned off
Glean Document Reader can now use stored document bytes for indexed documents when live or federated fetching is turned off. This prevents analysis from falling back to truncated indexed snippets when the complete stored document is available, improving the reliability of document analysis for supported indexed content.
Keep uploaded files available after extraction failures
Uploaded files remain available for raw-file analysis when text extraction cannot produce usable content. This gives you another way to work with supported uploads whose extracted text is incomplete or unavailable, instead of losing access to the original file for analysis.
Make Monday MCP setup easier to complete
Monday MCP setup now explains the redirect-URL allowlisting requirement and provides guidance for contacting a Monday representative before connecting or retrying. The clearer setup path helps admins understand why a connection may fail and what must be configured before trying again.
Resume Desktop tool connections after sign-in
When connecting extension tools from the Glean Desktop app, users are now prompted to sign in if the browser is signed out. The connection continues after authentication instead of failing at the sign-in step, making it easier to authorize tools from Desktop.

Notion Developers adds MCP tools to delete pages and databases with user confirmation, and to edit comments, manage discussion status, and react to comments. Comment tools require a Business or Enterprise plan.
Delete pages and databases in Notion MCP
Two new Notion MCP tools move content to Trash after the user confirms. notion-delete-pages moves up to 20 pages, and notion-delete-databases moves up to 20 databases with their rows. Both need the update content capability. Locked pages and databases can’t be moved to Trash. To undo a deletion, use notion-restore-pages or restore the item from Trash in Notion. See Supported tools.
Edit, delete, and react to comments in Notion MCP
Four new Notion MCP tools change existing comments. notion-update-comment replaces the text of a comment the user wrote, and notion-delete-comment deletes one. notion-set-discussion-resolved resolves or reopens a discussion. notion-set-comment-reaction adds or removes the user’s emoji reaction. The tools need a Business or Enterprise plan. Get comment and discussion IDs from notion-get-comments or notion-create-comment. See Supported tools.
