Using ChatGPT with DataDoe MCP

This guide shows how to connect DataDoe MCP to ChatGPT as a custom connector, so you can query your DataDoe workspace directly from ChatGPT.

Before you start

  • You must use ChatGPT in a web browser (not the desktop/mobile apps).
  • Your ChatGPT account must be on a plan that supports Apps/connectors (typically Pro / Plus / Business / Enterprise).
  • You must be a workspace admin in ChatGPT to create/publish the app in your workspace.

During setup you will be redirected to DataDoe to sign in and approve access.

Step 1: Copy the MCP server URL

Copy this URL: https://mcp.datadoe.com/mcp/v1.

Step 2: Enable ChatGPT Developer mode

  1. Go to chatgpt.com.
  2. Enable Developer mode: SettingsAppsAdvanced settingsDeveloper mode.
  3. Developer mode adds elevated risk to your account. Read and understand the warning before proceeding.

Step 3: Create the DataDoe app in your ChatGPT workspace

  1. Open Workspace settingsAppsCreate.
  2. Set Name to DataDoe.
  3. In MCP Server URL, paste the URL from Step 1.
  4. In Authentication, select OAuth (or Sign in) and complete the DataDoe sign-in.
  5. Read the risk warning and approve it if you agree.
  6. Click Create and wait for creation to complete.

Step 4: Publish the app

  1. When you see your app in the list, click Publish.
  2. Read the risk warnings and approve them if you agree.
  3. Click Publish.

Step 5: Test the connection

  1. Go back to chatgpt.com and start a new chat.
  2. Select Thinking mode and add the DataDoe app to the chat.
  3. Send a prompt that uses DataDoe data, for example:
Show me my Amazon Seller Central sales for the last 7 days.

If ChatGPT returns real data, you're connected.

Security

  • ChatGPT uses an OAuth-style sign-in and approval flow to access DataDoe.
  • Access is scoped to the permissions of the DataDoe user who approved the connection.
  • To revoke access, go to DataDoe MCP Integrations (opens in a new tab) and/or remove/unpublish the app in your ChatGPT workspace settings.

Troubleshooting

I can't find Developer mode or Apps in settings

  • Confirm you are using chatgpt.com in a browser.
  • Confirm you are on a plan that supports Apps/connectors.
  • Confirm you are a ChatGPT workspace admin (Business/Enterprise workspaces can restrict this to admins).

OAuth sign-in fails or keeps redirecting

  • Allow popups and redirects for chatgpt.com and DataDoe.
  • Temporarily disable ad/tracking blockers that might interfere with OAuth flows.
  • Try a clean/incognito window to rule out extension issues.

I created the app but can't add it to a chat

  • Make sure the app is Published (creation alone is not enough).
  • If you're in a managed workspace, confirm that Apps are allowed for your users.
