UserJot

ChatGPT

Shayan TaslimUpdated

ChatGPT desktop connects to UserJot over MCP. You add the remote server in the desktop app, not by editing a local editor config.

ChatGPT on the web works differently. It uses MCP-backed tools from installed plugins and does not take a custom server URL or bearer token in settings.

Use these UserJot values

When ChatGPT asks for your MCP server details, use:

text
Endpoint: https://api.userjot.com/v1/mcp
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_USERJOT_API_TOKEN

Create the token in UserJot under Settings → API Tokens.

Add the server in ChatGPT desktop

  1. Open Settings, then select MCP servers.

  2. Select Add server.

  3. Enter a name such as userjot.

  4. Choose Streamable HTTP and paste the UserJot endpoint.

  5. Provide bearer-token authentication using your UserJot API token.

  6. Save the server, then select Restart.

Type /mcp in the composer to confirm the server is connected.

If the Add server form has no auth field, set the same URL in ~/.codex/config.toml with bearer_token_env_var pointing at an environment variable that holds your token. ChatGPT desktop shares that config with Codex.

ChatGPT web

On the web, ChatGPT does not accept a local or remote MCP server configuration. MCP-backed tools come from plugins you install, not from pasting https://api.userjot.com/v1/mcp into settings.

Use ChatGPT desktop when you want UserJot with your own API token.

Notes

  • Workspace admins may restrict MCP servers or plugins.

  • Availability can still vary by plan and workspace settings.

  • Keep your token out of anything you would commit or share.
