Loops + ChatGPT
Send transactional emails, fire product events and manage contacts in Loops (the modern product-email tool for SaaS) from any AI agent. 9 tools, Bearer-token auth.
Prerequisites
See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:
LOOPS_API_KEY
Step 1 — Get credentials
Setup:
- Sign in to https://app.loops.so → Settings → API → Create API key.
- Pick the scope: Public API (recommended for most use) or higher.
- Copy the key (prefixed). Set
LOOPS_API_KEY.
Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${LOOPS_API_KEY}.
Mental model: Loops is event-driven. You send events (like 'user.signed_up', 'subscription.upgraded'), and those events trigger loops (the email automations you build in the UI). For transactional sends (password reset, magic link), use loops_send_transactional_email with a pre-built transactional template ID.
…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)
Step 2 — Install the adapter
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d
Step 3 — Add the connector in ChatGPT
Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide showsYOUR_SERVER_ID.
ChatGPT connects to MCP servers as custom apps in developer mode, available on paid plans (not on Free). On Business and Enterprise workspaces an admin may have to allow it first.
- In ChatGPT, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
- Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click +.
- Enter a name and a short description, e.g. Name:
Loops. - Under Connection, enter the MCP server URL
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_IDand create the connection. - When ChatGPT asks, sign in to AnythingMCP (OAuth) and allow access.

FAQ
Does the free ChatGPT plan work with custom MCP connectors? No. Custom MCP connections need developer mode, which is only on paid plans.
