A manager worries that connecting a document store to Claude will expose files their team cannot normally open. What actually governs access?
- AThe user's own permissions in the source system, which the connector cannot exceed on their behalf
- BThe connector's own service account, which reads the whole store and filters results afterwards
- CThe plan tier of the workspace, since higher tiers unlock deeper access into connected systems
- DThe chat's tool access mode, since a broader mode widens what the connector is allowed to read
Why this is the answer
Connectors inherit each user's existing access: Anthropic states that if someone cannot reach a file, channel or record in the source system, the connector cannot reach it from Claude either. There is no privileged account reading everything and filtering later, plan tier governs features rather than file permissions, and tool access modes decide which connectors load rather than what they may see.
