ChatGPT connects to the Equibles MCP server as a custom connector — sign in over OAuth and there's no key to manage.

## 1. Open ChatGPT

Sign in at [chatgpt.com](https://chatgpt.com). Custom connectors require a paid plan with developer mode / connectors enabled in **Settings**.

## 2. Add the Equibles server

Add Equibles as a custom connector over OAuth:

1. Open **Settings → Connectors** (enable developer mode if prompted).
2. Click **Create** / **Add custom connector**.
3. Paste the server URL:
   ```
   https://mcp.equibles.com/mcp
   ```
4. Click through to sign in to Equibles and **approve** access. ChatGPT holds a short-lived OAuth token — no key to copy.

> **Prefer an API key?** Instead of signing in, paste a URL with your key from [/dashboard/apikeys](/dashboard/apikeys):
> ```
> https://mcp.equibles.com/mcp?api_key=eq_your_api_key
> ```

## 3. Test it

Enable the Equibles connector for a chat, then ask any of these:

<div class="doc-prompts">
  <div class="doc-prompt"><span class="q">›</span> Show me Apple's last five daily closes. <span class="tag">Prices</span></div>
  <div class="doc-prompt"><span class="q">›</span> Who are NVIDIA's top institutional holders this quarter? <span class="tag">13F</span></div>
  <div class="doc-prompt"><span class="q">›</span> Summarize Microsoft's most recent earnings call. <span class="tag">Earnings</span></div>
</div>

## Troubleshooting

<details class="doc-ts"><summary>Connector not appearing?</summary>

Reload ChatGPT and confirm the connector is toggled on for the conversation; re-add it under **Settings → Connectors** if it's missing.

Make sure the connector is enabled for the chat and tell it explicitly to "use the Equibles MCP server".

Re-approve the connector in **Settings → Connectors**, or if you're using a key, re-copy it from [/dashboard/apikeys](/dashboard/apikeys). If you're over your daily limit, see [Rate limits](/docs/rate-limits).
