ChatGPT can be connected to Glow so you can ask about every website you manage without opening each one. This article covers ChatGPT specifically. For Claude see Connecting Claude to Glow, and for what a connection can and cannot do in general see Connecting an AI assistant.

Connect in one click

Glow is listed in ChatGPT's app directory. Open Glow in ChatGPT, choose Connect, then sign in to Glow and approve what it asks for, as described in Step 2 below.

Or add it by address

If your ChatGPT workspace does not allow directory apps, you can add Glow yourself. A connection made this way works the same.

Before you start

You need your own ChatGPT subscription on a plan that allows custom connectors, and developer mode turned on: Settings, Security and login, Developer mode.

Step 1: add the connector

In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Plugins, then Browse plugins, and use the + button.
Give it a name, and this address: https://my.getglow.io/api/mcp
Set Authentication to OAuth.
Tick the permissions you want under Advanced OAuth settings. You can pick fewer than all of them, but you cannot add one later without removing the connector and adding it again, so it is worth deciding now.
Confirm the risk notice and create it.

Use this address even if you normally sign in on your own domain.

Step 2: sign in and approve

ChatGPT sends you to Glow to sign in. You will then see a screen naming exactly what it is asking for, and where it will be sent.

Reading your websites, updates, backups, uptime and reports is the standard request. Running updates, changing uptime monitoring, and logging work are separate permissions: you can approve the connection without any of them and everything else still works.

ChatGPT asks again before anything that cannot be undone. Updating a theme or WordPress core prompts you first and says plainly that the change cannot be rolled back. Safe plugin updates take a backup and a screenshot first, and can be rolled back from Glow.

Once connected

What needs attention across my sites today?
Which sites run Elementor below 3.18?
Which certificates expire this month?
Which clients are over their hours?

What it can see

Exactly what your own Glow login sees, and nothing more. If your account is restricted to certain websites, the connection is restricted to the same ones, for reading and for running updates alike.

It never receives passwords, connection keys, or anything that would let it reach one of your websites directly.
