Marketing & Social

What the Lob connector can do

Lob provides direct mail automation and address verification for sending postcards, letters, and checks, plus tools for managing custom domains and shortened links used alongside that mail. A marketing or ops Space in type.com can ask the agent to register a custom domain, create a shortened link, or remove an old upload, handling the supporting infrastructure around a Lob mail campaign from one thread.

One connection, many Spaces

Connect Lob once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Lob

Can Claude manage Lob links and uploads?

Yes. With a Lob connection shared to a Space, the agent can create and delete custom domains, shortened links, and uploads, right from a thread.

How does type.com authenticate with Lob?

Lob uses an API key. An admin adds it once when creating the connection.

Can Lob link cleanup run on a schedule?

Yes. A type.com automation can check for unused Lob links or uploads on a schedule and flag them for cleanup.

Is this the same as a Lob MCP server?

Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
