ChatGPT Configuration

Follow these steps to connect ChatGPT to your MCP server.

Important Note

MCP (Model Context Protocol) support in ChatGPT is currently only available in Developer Mode, which requires a paid ChatGPT plan (Plus, Team, or Enterprise). We expect that the process of adding MCP servers will soon be simplified, once the MCP connectors are generally available in ChatGPT.

Setup Instructions

Step 1: Enable Developer Mode

First, you need to enable Developer Mode in ChatGPT's connector settings. This will allow you to add custom MCP servers.

Open Connector Settings →

Toggle "Developer Mode" to enable custom connector configuration.

Step 2: Create New Connector

Go to the main Connectors page and click the "Create" button to add a new MCP server connection.

Open Connectors Page →

Click the "Create" button to start configuring your MCP server.

Step 3: Configure MCP Server

Fill in the connector configuration form with the following details:

Step 4: Authenticate and Grant Permissions

After adding the MCP server connection, ChatGPT will prompt you to:

  1. Email token authentication - ChatGPT will require you to authenticate yourself with an email token
  2. Login to your account - You'll be redirected to log in to your Data account
  3. Grant permissions - Review and accept the data access permissions for the MCP server
  4. Select organization - Choose which organization to connect to

Step 5: Enable Connector in Chat

To use the MCP connector in a chat conversation:

Enabling the MCP in Chat

  1. Click the + icon - In any chat conversation, click the plus (+) icon next to the message input
  2. Enable Developer Mode - Toggle on Developer Mode if it's not already enabled
  3. Select Entropy Data - Your "Entropy Data" connector should now appear and be selectable

Once enabled, ChatGPT will have access to your data products and can help you interact with your metadata.

Setup Complete

ChatGPT uses Dynamic Client Registration for each of your users. It will not show up in the list of MCP Clients.
