# Connect ChatGPT

**Answer:** After Coevera activates the ChatGPT Connector for your space, add a connector in ChatGPT with the server URL https://mcp-server.coevera.com/mcp, then sign in to Coevera, pick the space and approve the scopes. Only a user with the Admin API Access right in the space can approve. ChatGPT then works within that user's access and the approved scopes.

The same server serves every client. For Claude see [Connect Claude](/ai/connect-claude/); for
any other MCP client see [Custom MCP connector](/ai/custom-connector/).

## Set up

### 1. An admin requests the connector in Coevera

Go to **Space Administration › Automation Hub › Addons**, open **ChatGPT Connector** and click
**Request**. Coevera Customer Success approves the request and activates the connector for the
space. See [Activate a connector](/ai/activation/).

### 2. Add the server in ChatGPT

In ChatGPT's connector settings, add a connector with this server URL:

```text
https://mcp-server.coevera.com/mcp
```

ChatGPT signs in with PKCE. The server has advertised the `S256` method since version 2.0.8.

### 3. Sign in and approve

Connecting opens the Coevera sign-in. The user signs in, picks a space and approves the scopes
on the consent screen.

- Only users with the **Admin API Access** right in the space can approve.
- Only active spaces with an active subscription are offered.
- File uploads, and exports that ChatGPT downloads to analyse, need `*.coevera.com` in ChatGPT's
  allowed domains, because the file travels straight between ChatGPT's environment and the
  server.

### 4. Try a first prompt

Ask something your own records can answer, for example:

> Which of my opportunities close this month, and what is the next step on each?

To answer, ChatGPT can call `me` to learn the user and space, then `search_records` on
opportunities with a filter on the closing date.

## What users approve

The consent screen lists the scopes the connector asks for, for example `accounts.full` or
`pipelines.read`. Approving creates an application of type OAuth in the space, and ChatGPT then
works within the signed-in user's access and those scopes. The full list and what each scope
grants are on [OAuth and scopes](/ai/oauth-and-scopes/).

## Troubleshooting

> **The connector is not active yet:** The connectors are in beta. After an admin clicks **Request**, the connector stays inactive until
> Coevera Customer Success approves it, and sign-in cannot complete until then.

- **The consent is refused.** The user lacks the **Admin API Access** right in that space, or the
  ChatGPT Connector is not active for it.
- **The space is not offered at sign-in.** The space is not active or has no active subscription.
- **Everything works except file uploads or exports.** Allow `*.coevera.com` in ChatGPT. Upload
  and download links are single-use and expire after a few minutes, so start the upload or the
  export again.
- **A request fails with a rate-limit error.** See [Limits and errors](/ai/limits-and-errors/).
