# Multiple Accounts

> Connect more than one account to the same integration and keep work and personal separate.

Some integrations support connecting more than one account. Gmail is the clearest case: connect your work and personal inboxes separately, and ask Dume to work with either one by name.

  <Card title="Unified access" icon="layer-group">
    Manage every connected account from one place, no switching apps.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Separation with control" icon="users-gear">
    Keep work and personal data apart while still working from one chat.
  </Card>

    Ask Dume to search or act across every connected account at once.

</CardGroup>

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect your main account">
    Connect the integration normally from [Integrations](/integrations/overview).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add another account">
    Use **Add Another Account** on the same integration card to connect a second one.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Give each one a name">
    Label accounts something you'll recognize, like "Work Gmail" and "Personal Gmail."
  </Step>

  <Step title="Reference them by name in chat">
    "Show emails from my work account" or "Send from my personal Gmail" tells Dume which one to use.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Example commands

```
Show emails from my work account
Send from my personal Gmail
Search all Gmail accounts for "invoice"
```

<Info>
  How many accounts you can connect per integration depends on your plan. See [Billing & plans](/account-settings/billing-and-plans).

## Security

Each connected account keeps its own authentication token and permissions, so disconnecting one doesn't affect the others.
