Why use Vercel Connect with Parallel?
Credentials on demand
Request Parallel credentials only when your application or agent needs them instead of copying secrets into application code.
Access for the right subject
Support both user-authorized and app-scoped Parallel access from the same connection layer.
Centralized credential management
Manage Parallel credentials in one place and retrieve them through a consistent runtime API.
Vercel-native controls
Bind connections to the projects and environments that need them while Vercel OIDC authenticates each runtime request.
Use Parallel with your stack
Follow a complete setup for the Connect SDK or a supported agent framework.
Add Parallel to an existing Vercel application with the Connect SDK.
