Connect ChatGPT

Accessible to: Workspace Owners, Trainers

You can connect ChatGPT to your Aimee.ai workspace so it can look up your courses, and - if you allow it - create, publish, or assign them for you, right from a ChatGPT conversation. You sign in and approve the connection once; there's no password or key to copy and paste.

Menu names may vary

ChatGPT changes its own menus from time to time. If a step below doesn't match exactly what you see, look for the closest equivalent - the overall process (connect, sign in, approve) stays the same.

Before you start

  • A workspace owner must turn this connection on first. Go to Workspace Settings → Features and switch on MCP access - it saves immediately.
  • Only workspace owners and trainers can connect ChatGPT; other roles can't.

  • You'll need your workspace's address. Find it under Workspace Settings, or in the address bar of any page inside your workspace. It looks like this, with your own workspace's ID in place of <workspaceId>:

Steps to connect

  1. In ChatGPT, open Settings → Security and sign in.
  2. Turn on Developer mode - a ChatGPT setting for connecting outside apps. You only need to turn it on once.
  3. Open Plugins, then select + to add a new app.
  4. Paste your workspace's address (from above) as the app's endpoint.
  5. Under Configure authentication, choose OAuth. ChatGPT fills in the rest automatically - you won't be asked for a password or key.
  6. ChatGPT opens an Aimee.ai sign-in screen. Sign in if needed, check that the workspace and the access being requested look right, and select Authorize.
  7. Back in ChatGPT, open a conversation, open the + menu, and choose Developer mode.
  8. Turn on your new app for that conversation. Try asking it to list your courses to confirm the connection works.

ChatGPT can read and change your workspace

Once connected, ChatGPT can see your courses and workspace data, and can also create, publish, or assign courses on your behalf. There's no option today to give it read-only access. Only connect ChatGPT if you're comfortable giving it the same level of access as a trainer login.

Disconnecting ChatGPT

Go to Profile → Security → Connected apps and select Revoke next to ChatGPT. Access is cut off immediately, and reconnecting means signing in and approving access again. A workspace owner can also cut off every connected app at once by turning off MCP access under Workspace Settings → Features. You can also remove the app from ChatGPT's own settings.

If something isn't working

  • ChatGPT can't connect, or sign-in fails - double check the workspace address, including the workspace ID, and confirm MCP access is switched on for your workspace.
  • The sign-in screen says you're not authorized - only workspace owners and trainers can connect ChatGPT. Ask a workspace owner to change your role, or have them connect it instead.
  • ChatGPT describes an old version of a course - Aimee keeps a read answer for a short time, so a change you just made can take up to 5 minutes to reach your client. Ask again a few minutes later. See How fresh a read answer is.
  • It stopped working after working before - the connection may have been revoked (check Connected apps in your profile) or MCP access may have been turned off for the workspace.
