Once in Assembled, navigate to _Settings > [Integrations](https://app.assembledhq.com/settings/integrations)_ and find your desired platform in the _Integration directory_ tab and click `Add`.  Once you've connected, you'll be redirected to authorize Assembled with your contact platform, then redirected back to Assembled if it was successful. Once a contact platform is connected, Assembled will start backfilling your data.

**Please note:** We use the integration's permissions of the account that sets up the integration to authenticate with the endpoints to get data. Any changes to this account and its permissions will affect the integration sync and how we get data. For example, the Zendesk admin who setup the integration with Zendesk in Assembled is leaving. Another Zendesk admin will need to re-enabled the Zendesk integration so that we use their permissions instead to prevent a loss of data.

# What do you use the data for?
