In this guide, you open the Tools page, find a tool, check its settings, and turn it on or off for your organization. Use this page to control which tools assistants can use and which tools new assistants start with.Only Global Admins can access the Tools section in Organization settings.
How the Tools page works#
The Tools page in Organization settings lists every tool in your organization, internal and external. Each row shows:Enabled: whether assistants in your organization can use the tool.
Default: whether the tool is switched on automatically for new assistants.
Classification: Internal (built into Ejento AI) or External (a connector to an outside service).
Category: the kind of service an external tool connects to.
Use cases#
Review before rollout: A new connector was added, but you want to test it first. Turn off Enabled so no assistant can use it until you're ready.Set up new assistants faster: Most of your assistants answer from documents and attachments. Keep those tools set as Default, so every new assistant starts with them on.Change how web search works: Your team prefers results from a different search engine. Open the Web Search Tool's settings and change the search engine for every assistant at once.
