As a workspace administrator, you may need to explain where a thread’s data is kept, where its work runs, and how Sidekick handles connector credentials. For controls shared across Oximy, see Security and privacy.

Where data lives

A thread keeps its conversation, tool activity, approvals, files, and outputs together in your workspace. The people who can open that information depend on whether the thread is personal or belongs to a Room.

Choose where work runs

Work can run in the cloud or on an approved computer after you enable This computer for the workspace. Cloud work runs in a managed environment. Work on a computer uses only the files, folders, and tools available through the permissions granted on that device. The thread remains in Sidekick in either case. If a selected computer is unavailable, Sidekick reports the failure instead of silently moving the work to the cloud.

Connector credentials stay hidden

When Sidekick uses a connector, the saved credential is not shown in the thread or provided to the model. Sidekick adds the credential only when it sends the approved request to the connected service. Saved secrets are write-only; replace a credential when it needs to change.

Review actions in the thread

The thread shows the tools Sidekick used, approval decisions, results, and errors alongside the conversation. Use Sidekick → Activity for a workspace-wide view of tool activity and Settings → Audit Log for completed administrative changes.
