Connecting ChatGPT

Add the server URL as a custom MCP server and authorize.

Pressbotics is a remote MCP server with OAuth. Any ChatGPT surface that supports custom MCP servers can use it, and no API key is involved.

The steps

  1. 1Open your client's settings and find where custom MCP servers (sometimes called connectors, integrations or tools) are added.
  2. 2Add a server with the URL https://mcp.pressbotics.com/mcp.
  3. 3Leave any API key or token field blank — Pressbotics uses OAuth.
  4. 4Connect. The client opens Pressbotics in your browser.
  5. 5Sign in and click Authorize. The client now lists the Pressbotics tools.

Menu names and their nesting change between clients and between versions of the same client. The shape above is stable; the exact wording on your screen may not be. If you cannot find the setting, search your client's own documentation for "MCP server".

Check it worked

Ask the model to call list_sites. If it returns your sites, the connection is live. If it returns nothing and you have connected a site, you are probably authorized as a different Pressbotics account — sign out of Pressbotics in the browser and re-authorize.

What can go wrong

  • The authorization window is blocked by a popup blocker. Allow popups for the client and try again.
  • The client only accepts local (stdio) MCP servers. Pressbotics is remote over HTTPS — you need a client with remote MCP support.
  • Tools appear but every call fails with an authorization error. Remove the server, add it again, and complete the OAuth screen fully.
