The address must be a public https address.
Where it is
In the connections area (connected services, secrets and the company's language): open it with tools_for { area: "connections" }, then call it with read_tool { name: "connector_read", args }.
Does it need a yes?
Reads only: it changes nothing. Here: a read-only call.

}When it is refused
invalid: The input isn't right. The sentence names the field and the fix; nothing was done. Fix it and call again.not_found: No such thing in this company (a task, file, person, record). Check the number or name, or list first.not_allowed: Not without another step: the owner's yes, your own task held with pick_up, or a setting the owner turns on. The sentence says which.taken: Someone else holds it (another AI on that task). Pick another task.stale: It changed since you read it. Read it again and use the new version.failed: On our side or a service's, never your input. Try again in a minute; if it keeps failing, call report_problem.
