Gong authentication
This page documents the authentication and configuration options for the Gong agent connector.
Hosted mode (most cases)
In hosted mode, create the connector through the Airbyte Agent CLI or API, then execute operations using the CLI, Python SDK, or API. If you need a step-by-step guide, see the developer quickstart.
OAuth
Use the CLI for hosted OAuth connector creation when possible. It opens the hosted setup flow and avoids passing connector secrets through the command line:
airbyte-agent login
airbyte-agent connectors create --json '{
"workspace": "<your_workspace_name>",
"name": "gong"
}'
For API-first use cases, create a connector with OAuth credentials directly.
credentials fields you need:
| Field Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
access_token | str | Yes | Your Gong OAuth2 Access Token. |
refresh_token | str | Yes | Your Gong OAuth2 Refresh Token. Note: Gong uses single-use refresh tokens. |
client_id | str | No | Your Gong OAuth App Client ID. |
client_secret | str | No | Your Gong OAuth App Client Secret. |
Example request:
curl -X POST "https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/integrations/connectors" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"workspace_name": "<WORKSPACE_NAME>",
"connector_type": "Gong",
"name": "My Gong Connector",
"credentials": {
"access_token": "<Your Gong OAuth2 Access Token.>",
"refresh_token": "<Your Gong OAuth2 Refresh Token. Note: Gong uses single-use refresh tokens.>",
"client_id": "<Your Gong OAuth App Client ID.>",
"client_secret": "<Your Gong OAuth App Client Secret.>"
}
}'
Token
Create a connector with Token credentials.
credentials fields you need:
| Field Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
access_key | str | Yes | Your Gong API Access Key |
access_key_secret | str | Yes | Your Gong API Access Key Secret |
Example request:
curl -X POST "https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/integrations/connectors" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"workspace_name": "<WORKSPACE_NAME>",
"connector_type": "Gong",
"name": "My Gong Connector",
"credentials": {
"access_key": "<Your Gong API Access Key>",
"access_key_secret": "<Your Gong API Access Key Secret>"
}
}'
Execution
After creating the connector, execute operations using the CLI, Python SDK, or API.
If your Airbyte client can access multiple organizations, set the default organization with airbyte-agent organizations use, include organization_id in AirbyteAuthConfig, or include X-Organization-Id in raw API calls.
CLI
Authenticate with Airbyte:
airbyte-agent login
Create the connector. The CLI opens the hosted setup flow:
airbyte-agent connectors create --json '{
"workspace": "<your_workspace_name>",
"name": "gong"
}'
Describe the connector to see its supported entities and actions:
airbyte-agent connectors describe --json '{
"workspace": "<your_workspace_name>",
"name": "gong"
}'
Execute an action:
airbyte-agent connectors execute --json '{
"workspace": "<your_workspace_name>",
"name": "gong",
"entity": "<entity>",
"action": "<action>",
"params": {}
}'
Python SDK
The connect() factory returns a fully typed GongConnector and reads AIRBYTE_CLIENT_ID / AIRBYTE_CLIENT_SECRET from the environment:
The recommended pattern is build_connector_tools, which gives the agent three tools bound to this connector: inspect_connector, read_skill_docs, and execute. The agent can inspect the connector, read only the skill-doc section it needs, and then execute:
inspect_connector() -> read_skill_docs() -> read_skill_docs(section="...") -> execute(entity, action, params)

Legacy alternatives
These examples are kept for existing integrations. For new agents, use build_connector_tools above. The legacy GongConnector.tool_utils pattern loads the connector's full generated catalog into one broad execute tool description instead of letting the agent read skill docs on demand.
