MIDAS MCP Server: Connecting ChatGPT
Once you've installed and enabled the MIDAS MCP Server, here's how to connect ChatGPT to MIDAS.
Note: This Requires a ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Team, Enterprise, or Edu account, with Developer Mode enabled.
- In ChatGPT, go to Settings → Connectors (or Apps & Connectors).
- Enable Developer Mode under Advanced settings, if not already enabled.
- Select Create, and choose the option to add a custom MCP server.
- Enter a name, such as "MIDAS", and the MCP Server URL:
https://your-midas-url/mcp.pl - For authentication, choose Custom header, and enter:
X-MCP-Key: your-midas-mcp-key
- Save the connector.
- In a new chat, enable Developer Mode, then add the MIDAS connector as a source before making a request.
To connect with the MCP Server and inherit the permissions of a specific user account, you can optionally set a "
X-Query-As" custom header, with its value set to the email address associated with a user account in your MIDAS system.If you have multiple databases setup in your MIDAS system, you can select a non-default database by optionally setting a "
X-MIDAS-DB" custom header, with its value set to the internal ID of the appropriate database.
