GConnect Google
Integrations

Connections

Connect one or many Google accounts, agency, client, personal. Switch between them at any time.

Clients

One client = one website. Link its Google properties and WordPress once; every Aurora feature picks it up from here.

Add a client
Step 1 of 3: Basics
Client name
Domain
Homepage URL

The homepage URL is what audits crawl first. It is auto-filled from the domain; edit it if the site lives somewhere else (a subfolder, a different scheme).

Google Workspace
2 connected

Sign in with one or more Google accounts, agency, personal, or per-client. Aurora reads each account's Search Console, Analytics 4, Gmail, and Business Profile through one unified UI. Tokens are stored locally and encrypted.

Privacy by design
  • Tokens are stored at .aurora/google/ on your machine.
  • Encrypted with AES-256-GCM using your AURORA_SECRET.
  • Read-only Google scopes by default, no data leaves your machine.
  • Sign out anytime to wipe the matching token file locally.

Sign in (and add more accounts later)

Each click of Add another account opens Google's account picker, pick which Google identity to link. Aurora will pull data through whichever account is set as Active.

WordPress

Connect any WordPress site (≥5.6) with an Application Password. Aurora reads posts/pages, drafts new ones from briefs, and uploads media, no plugin required to start.

What's an Application Password?
Connect a WordPress site

Sign into WordPress as an Editor / Admin

Open your site's WP admin (/wp-admin).

2
Generate an Application Password

Go to Users → Profile, scroll to Application Passwords, name it "Aurora", and click Add New Application Password.

WordPress shows a 24-character password (with spaces). Copy it now, you won't see it again.

What Aurora reads/writes
Posts, pages, media, categories, and tags, read + draft. Aurora never touches your real password and never deletes anything without your click.
