Managing connected apps

See which AI apps have access to your Missive account, what they can do, when they last used it, and how to revoke them.

Every AI app you've authorized is listed in Settings > Login & Security > Connected apps.

To open Settings, click your avatar in the bottom-left corner of the sidebar, then Settings (or press ⌘,).

You may be asked for your password when you open Login & Security. That's expected.

What the list shows

Column

App

The app that connected, with its icon.

Scopes

The permissions you granted it.

Last IP used

The IP address of the most recent request. Click it to look up its location.

Last used

When the app last called Missive. Updates every few minutes, not instantly.

Authorized on

When you approved it.

Check this list occasionally. An app you forgot about still holds whatever you granted it, and Last used is the quickest way to spot access you no longer need.

Revoking an app

  1. Go to Settings > Login & Security > Connected apps.

  2. Click the ... menu on the app's row.

  3. Click Revoke access, then confirm.

Access stops immediately. The app can't read anything, send anything, or refresh its way back in. To use it again, connect it from scratch and approve a fresh request.

Revoke anything you don't recognize, then change your Missive password.

Reconnecting an app

Authorizing an app you've already connected replaces the previous access rather than adding to it. You'll always see one row per app.

This is also how you change permissions, since there's no way to edit them in place. Revoke the app, connect it again, and check a different set of boxes on the way through.

When access expires

Access lasts 30 days, after which the app has to be authorized again. Apps that support silent renewal handle this in the background and you won't notice. Others will ask you to approve again, and you'll see the same authorization screen.

Two other things end access early:

  • You revoke the app, as above.

  • An admin turns off MCP for one of your organizations. Every connected app for every member of that organization stops working right away. See Admin controls.
