Review checklist: getConnection docs update

​

Connectors resource page

• Step 3 in the intro list says getConnection() instead of getAccessToken()
• “Use in backend functions” section mentions getConnection() with the connectionConfig explanation
• Code example shows const { accessToken } = await ...getConnection("googlecalendar") with Authorization: \Bearer $“
• “Supported services” intro references getConnection() with link to #getconnection anchor
• All existing content (Configure, Deploy, Supported services table, See also) is intact

​

SDK reference: connectors

• getConnection() method appears with description, params, return type, and two examples (basic usage + Shopify)
• getAccessToken() method appears with a deprecation notice pointing to getConnection()
• “Available connectors” table renders correctly in the module overview
• Integration guide links (Gmail, LinkedIn, Slack scopes; Slack connector types) work
• ConnectorIntegrationType and ConnectorIntegrationTypeRegistry type sections render at the bottom

​

Third-party APIs page

• Connectors code block tab title says “Get a connection” (not “Get an access token”)
• Example uses const { accessToken } = await ...getConnection("googlecalendar")
• The Authorization header uses accessToken variable

​

Dynamic types page

• “Connector types” section says “retrieving connections” (not “retrieving OAuth tokens”)
• Example shows const { accessToken } = await ...getConnection("googlecalendar")

​

Changelog

• New entry for March 3, 2026 with tag “SDK” appears at the top
• Title is “New: getConnection() method for connectors”
• Links to /developers/backend/resources/connectors and #getconnection anchor both work
• Entry sits above the SSO authentication provider entry (same date)
