How do you use the Join tool in Illustrator?

Click the Edit Toolbar icon (three dots) at the bottom of the Basic toolbar. The All Tools drawer appears, which holds all the tools available in Illustrator. To add the Join tool, you can drag it anywhere onto the toolbar or drag it onto a tool group to nest it. For now, drag it to the bottom of the toolbar.

How do I join an intersecting path in Illustrator?

Use keyboard shortcut Command-J/Ctrl-J to join them, OR right-click with your mouse and select Join, OR go to the Object menu > Path > Join. To connect two intersecting lines at the intersection, select both lines with the Selection or Direct Selection tools.
