Connecting ChatGPT

SiteTrax.io publishes an app for ChatGPT. Connecting it lets you ask operational questions in ChatGPT and get answers drawn from the SiteTrax.io projects your account is permitted to see.

Before you start

An active SiteTrax.io account with verified email. Complete verification and confirm the intended account in the application before starting. Share at least one project with that account for useful operational answers.
A ChatGPT account. On workspace plans, an administrator controls whether apps may be added and how they are rolled out.
Use a desktop browser for the documented setup steps. Availability on other surfaces depends on the ChatGPT integration and current product support.

Connect from SiteTrax.io

Open the published SiteTrax.io app in ChatGPT to start directly. A published Intelligence profile is optional for ordinary MCP access. If you already use the personalized Intelligence hub, its ChatGPT card opens the same listing:

Sign in at app.sitetrax.io and open Intelligence.
Scroll to Use SiteTrax.io with your assistant.
On the ChatGPT card, select Open in ChatGPT. It opens in a new tab.
In ChatGPT, choose the option to connect SiteTrax.io. When prompted, sign in on the SiteTrax.io authorization page and review the requested permissions. An existing application session may skip another password prompt; approval is still required.
Authorize the connection, then return to ChatGPT and confirm SiteTrax.io is available.

Authentication is completed through the SiteTrax.io authorization screen. Never type a SiteTrax.io password into an app configuration field, and never paste access tokens into a prompt.

Configuring your own connection

Organizations that manage their own custom apps can point ChatGPT at the SiteTrax.io remote MCP endpoint. This developer-mode path is separate from connecting the published listing above; its plan and workspace restrictions do not describe every published-app installation.

Endpoint: https://mcp.sitetrax.io/mcp

For a custom MCP connection, follow OpenAI's current developer-mode instructions. Enable developer mode where your account and workspace policy allow it, add the SiteTrax.io endpoint, review the discovered tools and complete OAuth authorization. This custom setup is separate from installing the published SiteTrax.io listing.

Check the connection

Ask something you can verify by hand, and name SiteTrax.io in the prompt.

Using SiteTrax.io, list the projects I have access to.

Compare the returned projects with Projects in the application under the same account. Matching results confirm read access for that request; the hub card or a visible app alone does not confirm authorization. An empty list can mean no projects are shared with the account. If account verification interrupted or expired the connection, finish verification and start again from ChatGPT.

What ChatGPT can reach

Only what your SiteTrax.io account can reach. Connecting an app does not widen SiteTrax.io permissions. See Using MCP with SiteTrax.io for the capability groups, and the SiteTrax.io MCP Server reference for the full technical contract.

If answers are generic, check the authorized account, shared projects, whether that account has a published profile, and whether ChatGPT actually retrieved it. The public profile tool returns selected facts and priorities; it does not supply your saved working brief or response-style instructions. Reconnecting only helps when the account or authorization is wrong. See Troubleshooting Connections.

Reading operational data, published profile context, notification lists and delivery history uses sitetrax:read. Creating an alert or digest, or cancelling one, also requires sitetrax:notifications:write. ChatGPT may request that additional approval when you ask for the action, or during initial setup. Approve only the access your workflow needs. See Account Access and OAuth and Alerts and Scheduled Digests.
