Nodaro DocsChatGPT
Turn on Developer mode in ChatGPT, create a Nodaro connector with the MCP URL, sign in with OAuth, and switch Nodaro on in a chat to generate media.
You connect ChatGPT to Nodaro by creating a custom connector in ChatGPT's Developer mode, with the URL https://mcp.nodaro.ai/mcp. After you sign in with your Nodaro account and switch the connector on in a chat, ChatGPT can call the Nodaro tools you allowed.
Before you start
- Your plan. Developer mode, and with it custom MCP connectors, is available on the ChatGPT Plus, Pro and Business plans.
- Developer mode. This switch lets ChatGPT talk to MCP servers outside its own catalog. It is off by default and changes nothing else about ChatGPT.
- Business and Enterprise workspaces. An admin turns Developer mode on for the workspace before members can use it.
Connect ChatGPT
Turn on Developer mode
In ChatGPT, open Settings › Connectors › Advanced settings and turn on Developer mode. The Create button appears in the connector settings.
Create the connector
Click Create. You can also open the form directly with this link:
https://chatgpt.com/#settings/Connectors?create-connector=trueThe link does not fill in the form. Name the connector Nodaro and paste https://mcp.nodaro.ai/mcp as the server URL.
Confirm and sign in
Tick the box that says you trust the connector, and keep the authentication on OAuth. ChatGPT opens the Nodaro sign-in page. Sign in, review the permissions on the consent screen, and click Allow.
Switch Nodaro on in a chat
In a chat, open the + menu and switch Nodaro on under Developer mode. Then ask, for example: "Generate an image of a knight with Nodaro."
OpenAI documents the switch and its limits in Developer mode and MCP apps in ChatGPT.
Follow a generation to the end
Generation tools start a job and answer at once with its id. When the result does not appear in the chat, ask ChatGPT to check the job with get_job, or to wait for it with wait_for_job. An image usually takes under a minute and a video 2 to 10 minutes. Every result is also saved to your Nodaro library. See Job tools.
Upload your own files
To give ChatGPT a photo, a voice recording or a clip to work with, ask it to request a Nodaro upload. request_image_upload, request_audio_upload and request_video_upload return a link. You open the link in your browser, drop the file, and ChatGPT receives its URL. See Upload tools.
If the connection fails
- The Create button is missing. Turn on Developer mode, or ask your workspace admin to enable it.
- The sign-in fails or never finishes. Check that the server URL is exactly
https://mcp.nodaro.ai/mcp. - Nodaro is connected but ChatGPT does not use it. Switch Nodaro on for the chat under Developer mode in the + menu.

Frequently asked questions
Which ChatGPT plans can connect to Nodaro?
Custom MCP connectors need ChatGPT Developer mode, which is available on the Plus, Pro and Business plans.
Why is there no Create button in my ChatGPT connector settings?
Developer mode is off. Open Settings, then Connectors, then Advanced settings, and turn Developer mode on. In a Business or Enterprise workspace, an admin must turn it on for everyone first.
Does the Open in ChatGPT link fill in the connector form?
No. The link opens the form to create a connector, but nothing is filled in. Name the connector Nodaro and paste https://mcp.nodaro.ai/mcp as the server URL.
How do I use Nodaro in a ChatGPT chat?
In the chat, open the + menu and switch Nodaro on under Developer mode. Then ask for what you want, for example an image or a short video.
