## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Microsoft Excel?

Authorize once with OAuth 2.0. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.

### Can LuumenAI change things in Microsoft Excel on its own?

Read actions answer immediately. Anything that writes is shown as a plan and requires approval by default. Administrators configure that per tool.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Microsoft Excel — read or write, approved or declined — is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
