Hey Guys,
I want to use the MCP with the new GPT Version where Work and Codex is combined.
If I get it right, weather the MCP Guide for GPT nor for Codex covers the new interface that came with the new App.
“Apps” for example is not a menu point in settings anymore.
Can anybody help me to understand how to connect the new GPT desktop app with wewebs MCP?
Thanks in advance!
Best,
Peer

There are two ways to connect the WeWeb MCP to ChatGPT.
**Option 1: Add it directly from your WeWeb project (recommended).**
Copy the MCP URL from your WeWeb project and paste it into ChatGPT. Ask ChatGPT to install the MCP server, and you’ll be prompted to authenticate your WeWeb account. Once authentication is complete, the MCP server will be connected and ready to use.
**Option 2: Add it manually through ChatGPT.**
Click the **Plugins & Connectors** button in ChatGPT. At the top of the panel, select the **settings** icon. You’ll see several tabs open the **MCP** tab, then follow the on-screen instructions to add your WeWeb MCP server using the MCP URL from yourweweb account
