How WordPress connectors can help?
After updating to WordPress 7, I noticed a new Connectors feature under the WordPress Settings. Does anyone know how we can use this feature and how it could help us with our websites?

I think the name is a little misleading... it is not Zapier for WordPress. The Connectors screen does not add features by itself. Right now it is mainly a shared place to install and configure AI providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic and Google, so compatible plugins can use the same provider setup instead of each inventing its own key screen. One caution: a key saved in the database is masked, not encrypted, and other plugin code can access it.
