# Connect to Switcher ### **Parameters** * **Name**: The name of the switcher you wish to connect to. Running this action will cause MixEffect to disconnect from any current active connection and try to connect to the new switcher. Running this action will open MixEffect if it is not already in the foreground. It is highly advisable to add a Show Alert action that pauses execution of the shortcut until after MixEffect has fully connected to the switcher. Once the user taps OK in the alert, the subsequent actions will run. ### **Returns** Nothing --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
