Forest integrates with third-party tools in several ways: as a data source (browse and edit the tool’s data inside Forest), as an action plugin (trigger the tool from a Forest action), as an embed (surface Forest inside another product), as an MCP connector (call the tool from a Forest workflow), or as an AI assistant connection. A tool can offer more than one path. See the MCP Connectors catalog for the full list of workflow connectors. This page lists everything Forest connects to today and where to find it. Looking for a tool that isn’t here? Contact us, most APIs can be connected with a custom data source.
