Connect ChatGPT to Clikso

View as Markdown Open in Claude Open in ChatGPT

In short

On chatgpt.com, add a custom MCP server with the Clikso server URL. ChatGPT opens Clikso so you can sign in and pick workspaces. Whether you can add custom servers, and whether they can make changes, depends on your ChatGPT plan.

You need

ChatGPT: A plan that allows custom MCP servers. At work, your admin may need to allow it too.
A browser: You add the server on chatgpt.com. The phone apps cannot add one.
Clikso: Any plan, including Free.

Add the server

Open plugins

On chatgpt.com, open Plugins. Press +, then Add custom MCP server.

Describe it and paste the URL

Name it Clikso, and add a short description such as "Create and manage my short links." For the connection, paste https://app.clik.so/mcp.

Set up sign-in when ChatGPT asks. Read its notice, press I understand and want to continue, then Create as a plugin.

Sign in to Clikso

A Clikso page opens. Tick the workspaces, choose View and make changes or View only, and press Allow access.

CancelAllow access

The Clikso screen ChatGPT opens when you connect it. You choose the workspaces and what ChatGPT may do.

Use it in a chat

Pick Clikso in a new chat and ask, for example, "Which of my links point to example.com?"

Approve changes in the chat

When a tool needs your approval, Clikso shows a card in the chat. It says "Clikso needs your approval" and shows exactly what will change. Press Approve and Clikso makes the change at once, or press Deny. See Approvals.

ChatGPT asks too

ChatGPT asks you to confirm before a tool makes changes. That prompt belongs to ChatGPT.

Clikso's settings apply on top of it, and Clikso's setting is the one enforced for every app. A tool set to Needs approval in Clikso still waits for you on the Clikso card.

Good to know

ChatGPT changes this screen often. If a button name differs, look for "custom MCP server" or "developer mode" in its settings.
Some plans can only read and search with custom servers. If ChatGPT will not create links, check what your plan allows.
To stop, remove the plugin in ChatGPT. Then press Disconnect in Clikso under Settings → AI connections.
