# Custom connector

## Overview

The Spark Custom Connector can be easily integrated with Claude on both the web and desktop versions.

There are two types of actors for this integration:

* **Team Admin**: adds the GWI connector integration for their organisation.
* **Team Members**: connect to the GWI connector by using their GWI account.
