The Perplexity connector lets the agent search the web and get cited answers. Use it to bring current facts, sources and research into what it builds.

What the agent can do

  • Search the web
  • Ask a question and get an answer with its sources
  • Reason through a harder question step by step
Perplexity’s long-running research mode is not available through the connector.

What it costs

Searches spend your Perplexity API credits. They are billed by Perplexity, not by Polymet.

​

  2. In Polymet, click Agent connectors in the generation input.
  3. Find Perplexity and click Connect.
