Give your agents persistent memory backed by your Cognee Cloud tenant. Once connected, an agent recalls relevant context before it answers and writes new knowledge back into your knowledge graph automatically — memory survives across sessions, terminals, and even across different agents that share a dataset. This section walks through connecting each supported agent to Cognee Cloud. For local-only setups and full configuration references, each page links out to the dedicated integration guide.

​
How agents connect

Agents read and write Cognee memory in one of a few ways. Pick the one your agent supports:

​
Before you start

Every Cloud connection needs two values from your tenant:
1

Copy your tenant base URL

Your Cloud base URL looks like https://your-tenant.aws.cognee.ai. It’s shown in the dashboard and in the Integrations page, which prefills it into every copy-on-click snippet.
2

Create an API key

Generate a key on the API Keys page. Store it securely — treat it like a password.
Most plugins read these from environment variables:
The in-product Integrations page (under CONNECT in the sidebar) has quickstart cards for each agent that inject your live base URL and API key into ready-to-paste snippets — the fastest path to a working connection.
