Why use Vercel Connect with Convex?
Credentials on demand
Request Convex credentials only when your application or agent needs them instead of copying secrets into application code.
Access for the right subject
Request user-authorized Convex access so actions follow the identity and permissions of the person using your application.
Managed authorization lifecycle
Centralize Convex authorization and token exchange rather than rebuilding the provider flow in every application.
Vercel-native controls
Bind connections to the projects and environments that need them while Vercel OIDC authenticates each runtime request.
Use Convex with your stack
