How to Connect Gomry to ChatGPT

Connect Gomry to ChatGPT with your Gomry account, then use your permitted tools to work with events, attendees, payments and contacts.

Connect Gomry to ChatGPT and ask about your events, attendees, forms, applications, contacts and payment records in plain language. ChatGPT uses Gomry's remote MCP server, which provides tools for working with your organization's records. Access follows your Gomry role, so connecting the server does not give you additional permissions.

You sign in with your Gomry account. The OAuth connection does not require an API key or a copied access token.

What you need

  • A Gomry account with access to the organization you want to work in.
  • A ChatGPT account and workspace that allow custom MCP servers. Account and workspace policies apply; an administrator may need to enable access.

1. Add the Gomry server

Open ChatGPT Plugins, select +, then Add custom MCP server. Enter Gomry as the name and a short description, such as “Work with my Gomry organization.”

For the public server connection, enter:

`` https://www.gomry.com/api/mcp ``

Choose OAuth authentication. Review the risk warning, select I understand and want to continue, then Create as a plugin. These are the steps in OpenAI's current custom MCP connection guide.

The Gomry authorization page asks you to sign in and authorize the connection. Use the Gomry account whose organization access you want ChatGPT to have. You do not need to fill in bearer-token or custom-header fields.

After authorization, review the discovered tools. If the metadata needs to be reloaded, open the connection in ChatGPT Plugins and select Refresh.

2. Begin with a read

Install the resulting plugin, start a new conversation, type @ and select Gomry. Ask for a record you can readily compare with your dashboard:

  • “List my organizations and my upcoming events.”
  • “Who is checked in for Friday's event, and who is still pending?”
  • “Total successful payments by event for last month.”

Name the organization if your account belongs to more than one. Check the event, dates and totals against the dashboard before relying on an answer. A response about the wrong event can look plausible even when the tool call itself succeeded.

3. Make one deliberate change

Once you have confirmed that reads use the right records, try a small update that your Gomry role permits. Name the record and the new value. Review the requested action and any authorization prompt before allowing it: a write changes real data, not a copy of your dashboard.

Do not assume that permission to read an event also permits changing it. The available tool and the authenticated user's role both matter.

What ChatGPT can access

Gomry checks requests against the organizations and privileges of the signed-in user. ChatGPT also applies its own account, workspace and tool policies. Review the tools exposed by the connection rather than treating it as unrestricted access to the organization.

Organization API keys are separate credentials for code that calls the Gomry API. They are not required for this OAuth connection. If your server's available tools change, refresh the connection's metadata before starting a new conversation.

To stop using the connection, remove or disconnect Gomry in ChatGPT. Gomry's setup documentation explains authorization and disconnection. Reconnecting runs the authorization flow again.

Troubleshooting

The server URL does not open as a normal page. The address is an MCP endpoint, not a website. Paste it into the connection form. Gomry documents a missing-authentication response when a request has no credentials.

The tool list is missing or outdated. Open the connection in ChatGPT Plugins and select Refresh. Check the role of the Gomry account you authorized if a particular tool is still unavailable.

ChatGPT cannot connect. Check the exact public server address, including /api/mcp, and retry the authorization flow. Do not paste an organization API key into the form.

Reads work but a write does not. Check that the operation is available to the connection and allowed by your Gomry role. A successful read does not establish permission for a different action.

The connection has expired. Disconnect and reconnect Gomry, then authorize it again with the intended account.

The AI operations guide explains why reading a payment record and being able to change it are different capabilities.
