Odoo + ChatGPT

Odoo ERP over the JSON-2 API: search, read, create and update any model, plus purpose-built tools for partners, sales orders, invoices and products. Works against Odoo Online, Odoo.sh and self-hosted Odoo 19+, bearer API key.

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:

ODOO_URL, ODOO_DB, ODOO_API_KEY

Step 1 — Get credentials

Getting an API key

  1. In Odoo open your user menu → My Profile → Account Security and create a new API key. Odoo shows it once.
  2. Put it in ODOO_API_KEY, your instance URL in ODOO_URL (e.g. https://mycompany.odoo.com, no trailing slash) and the database name in ODOO_DB. On Odoo Online the database name is usually the subdomain.

…(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 shows YOUR_SERVER_ID.

ChatGPT adds MCP servers as plugins on its Plugins page, on the web and on paid plans. Developer mode is no longer needed. In a Business workspace only admins and owners can add one; in Enterprise and Edu an admin can grant the Create plugins with MCPs permission.

  1. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins, click Add, then Add custom MCP server.
  2. Enter a name, e.g. Name: Odoo.
  3. Under Connection, enter the Server URL https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID and keep Authentication on OAuth.
  4. Select I understand and want to continue, then Create as a plugin. When ChatGPT asks, sign in to AnythingMCP and allow access.
  5. Install the new plugin from your personal plugins, then type @ in a chat and pick it.
