> Add Grovs to ChatGPT so you can manage links and pull analytics from a chat.

Add the Grovs MCP server to [ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com) and you can create deep links, pull analytics, and change project settings from any conversation.

> **Note:** Custom MCP connectors require a ChatGPT **Plus** or **Pro** plan and are currently part of the **Developer Mode** beta. Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans also support connectors when enabled by an admin.

## Prerequisites

- A ChatGPT Plus or Pro account
- A Grovs account with at least one project

## Setup

### 1. Enable Developer Mode

In ChatGPT, go to **Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced settings** and toggle **Developer Mode** to on.

This unlocks the ability to add custom MCP connectors. You only need to do this once.

### 2. Add the Grovs connector

Go back to **Settings → Apps & Connectors** and click **Add new connector** (or **+ Add**).

Fill in the form:

- **Name:** `Grovs`
- **MCP Server URL:** `https://mcp.grovs.io/mcp`
- **Authentication:** `OAuth`

Click **Create** (or **Connect**).

### 3. Authorize access

ChatGPT opens an authorization window:

1. Log in to your Grovs account if prompted
2. Review the permissions and click **Authorize**
3. The window closes and ChatGPT confirms the connection

### 4. Start using Grovs

In any conversation, enable the Grovs connector from the chat tools menu, then try:

- _"Show me my Grovs projects"_
- _"Create a smart link for the landing page"_
- _"What are the analytics for my top links?"_

ChatGPT will use the Grovs tools to fulfill your request.

> **Note:** Self-hosting Grovs? Use your own MCP server's URL; see [Self-hosted MCP](https://docs.grovs.io/docs/ai/mcp/self-hosted).

## Managing the Connection

Open **Settings → Apps & Connectors**, click the Grovs connector, and select **Disconnect** or **Remove**.

You can also revoke access from the Grovs dashboard — see [Revoking access](https://docs.grovs.io/docs/ai/mcp/introduction#revoking-access).

## Troubleshooting

### Grovs tools not appearing

- Verify the connector is active in **Settings → Apps & Connectors**
- Make sure you've enabled the connector for the current chat via the tools menu
- Check that your ChatGPT plan supports custom connectors
- Try disconnecting and reconnecting the server

### Authorization fails

- Check that your browser allows popups from `chatgpt.com`
- Verify you can access `https://mcp.grovs.io` in your browser
- Make sure **Authentication** is set to `OAuth` when adding the connector

### "Server unavailable" errors

- Check [Grovs status](https://status.grovs.io) for any outages
- If self-hosting, check that your MCP server is reachable from the public internet: ChatGPT connects from its own servers
