Dashpivot MCP allows you to connect your Dashpivot account directly to ChatGPT so you can query and interact with your Dashpivot data using natural language. Since
Dashpivot MCP is not currently available in the ChatGPT App Store, it must be connected manually using ChatGPT’s Dev Mode. This guide is for users with MCP access who want to enable and use Dashpivot MCP within ChatGPT.

Confirm that you are redirected back to ChatGPT and that the connection shows as Connected.
Test the Integration
Open a new chat in ChatGPT.
Look for the tools icon below the message input to confirm the Dashpivot MCP tools are available.
Start asking ChatGPT questions about your Dashpivot data, for example:
“Show me my workspaces in Dashpivot”
“What forms were submitted this week?”
“List all overdue forms in [project name]”
