Connect Data Parrot MCP to ChatGPT

An approved Data Parrot plugin for ChatGPT is planned. Until it is available, connect through Developer mode and update one OAuth setting before creating the plugin.

  1. Open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
  2. Open Settings → Plugins, or go directly to chatgpt.com/plugins.
  3. Select + and create a developer-mode plugin for a remote MCP server.
  4. Enter Data Parrot and paste https://api-v3.dataparrot.ai/api/v3/data-parrot/mcp as the server URL.
  5. Choose OAuth for authentication.
  6. Open Advanced OAuth settings. Under OpenID support, make sure OIDC enabled is switched off, even if it is already off by default. Remove openid from Default scopes and Base scopes if it appears.
  7. Scan the available tools and sign in with HubSpot when prompted.
  8. Create the plugin, then turn it on in a new conversation.

If Developer mode or plugin creation is unavailable, ask your ChatGPT workspace admin to enable it. See OpenAI's guide to connecting an MCP server for current interface labels.

Connect Data Parrot MCP to the Codex app

You can add Data Parrot from Codex settings without opening a terminal.

  1. Open Settings in the Codex app.
  2. Select MCP servers. In versions that group MCP under developer settings, open Developer settings → Integrations and MCP instead.
  3. Select Add server.
  4. Enter Data Parrot as the name.
  5. Choose Streamable HTTP and paste https://api-v3.dataparrot.ai/api/v3/data-parrot/mcp as the server URL.
  6. Save the server. If Codex displays Restart, select it before continuing.
  7. Return to the server settings and select Authenticate.
  8. Sign in with HubSpot and review the requested Data Parrot access.

You are connected when Data Parrot appears as enabled and authenticated in Codex settings. You can also enter /mcp in a Codex conversation to review connected servers.

The Codex app and Codex CLI share this connection.

Connect Data Parrot MCP to Codex CLI

If Data Parrot is already configured in the Codex app, you do not need to add it again. The Codex app and Codex CLI share MCP configuration.

Otherwise, add Data Parrot from your terminal:

codex mcp add data-parrot \
  --url https://api-v3.dataparrot.ai/api/v3/data-parrot/mcp

Then start authentication:

codex mcp login data-parrot

Sign in with HubSpot in your browser. Start Codex with codex, then run /mcp to confirm that data-parrot is connected.

The connection is also available in the Codex app on the same computer. See OpenAI's Codex MCP guide for current commands, shared configuration, and authentication behavior.

Disconnect Data Parrot from ChatGPT or Codex

  • ChatGPT: Open Settings → Plugins, find the Data Parrot developer-mode plugin, and disconnect or remove it.
  • Codex app or Codex CLI: Remove Data Parrot from Codex settings, or run codex mcp remove data-parrot in your terminal.

The Codex app and Codex CLI share MCP configuration, so removing Data Parrot from Codex removes it from both on the same computer. The ChatGPT connection is separate.
