# Connect the QUESTIONSTAR MCP with ChatGPT

Connect ChatGPT to the QUESTIONSTAR MCP — a step-by-step guide with screenshots, from the plugin dialog to the OAuth approval.

*Step-by-step guide for ChatGPT (Plus/Team/Enterprise, with custom-plugin support). ChatGPT Free does not support custom plugins — a Plus or higher plan is required.*

## Requirements

- An active QUESTIONSTAR account — **already signed in in your browser** (with the exact account you want the AI client to connect to)
- ChatGPT Plus/Team/Enterprise with custom-plugin access

## Set up the connection

1. Open **ChatGPT** and choose **Plugins** in the sidebar.
2. Click the **+** (New Plugin) at the top right.

3. Under *Name*, enter: “QUESTIONSTAR”.
4. Under *Connection* (Server URL), enter: `https://mcp.questionstar.com/mcp`.
5. Confirm the notice with the **I understand and want to continue** checkbox.
6. Click **Create**.

7. In the next dialog: **Sign in with QUESTIONSTAR**.

**Not signed in?** The QUESTIONSTAR sign-in page opens first. Sign in, then click **Sign in with QUESTIONSTAR** again — the second click completes the MCP connection.

8. In the QUESTIONSTAR dialog: **Allow**, to give ChatGPT access.

QUESTIONSTAR is now available in ChatGPT. Invoke the plugin actively — via the plugin picker or by name in the prompt, depending on the mode.

### First prompts to try

- **“Show me my surveys”** — a quick inventory.
- **“What can I do with QUESTIONSTAR via the MCP — and how can you help me with it?”** — the AI client tells you itself which tools are available. Especially useful when you’re just starting out.
