# WolframAlpha

> Connect WolframAlpha to xpander and give agents its 6 actions: how to sign in and connect it, and which actions to hold for approval.

<Badge color="blue">HTTP API connector</Badge>

An HTTP API described by an OpenAPI spec, not an MCP server. Calls go to `https://www.wolframalpha.com` and carry a credential xpander supplies, so there is nothing to paste.

## What the skill can do

API connector: 6 actions, as they appear in the skill panel. 0 of them create, change or delete something in WolframAlpha; mark those under **These actions need approval** when you add the skill to an agent.

* **Computational knowledge** (6): Get Short Answer, Get Spoken Answer, Compute Query with Wolfram Alpha, Validate Query, Get Result Image, Get Full Results

## Connect WolframAlpha

In Xpander Chat, open the agent's settings, click **Add skill**, and search for **WolframAlpha**. The connect dialog asks for a connection name and whether the connection is for the **Organization** (one shared account) or **Personal** (your own account, so the agent acts with your permissions where systems allow). On an agent other people use, a personal connection runs their requests as you unless the binding requires each person's own sign-in; see [whose credential a shared agent uses](/use/agents/permissions#whose-credential-a-shared-agent-uses).

WolframAlpha connects with **Sign in with WolframAlpha**: you authorize in the browser and xpander stores the OAuth token; the agent never sees it, and the token is attached at the moment a skill is called.

Calls go to `https://www.wolframalpha.com`.

## Give an agent the WolframAlpha skill

Once WolframAlpha is connected, any agent you can edit may be given the skill: open the agent's settings, click **Add skill**, and choose **WolframAlpha**. Enable only the action groups the agent needs, and mark the actions that should wait for a named person's sign-off under **These actions need approval**. Which skills exist for your organization, and who may add them, is decided by your admins; see [Skills](/use/skills).
