GLS Track & Trace + ChatGPT

Track GLS (General Logistics Systems) parcels across Europe using the free public Track & Trace REST API. Look up parcels by GLS tracking number (TrackID) or customer reference.

Prerequisiti

Le istruzioni di setup complete sono incluse nel connettore stesso (visibili nello store quando lo selezioni). Le variabili d'ambiente richieste sono:

(none — public API)

Step 1 — Ottieni le credenziali

Tracking number (TrackID): 10-12 digit numeric string printed on the parcel label.

Customer reference: the reference you (or the shipper) set when creating the parcel. Multiple parcels may share a reference, so results are always an array.

Language: de (German), en (English), fr, it, es, nl, pl, cz. The descriptions in event rows are translated accordingly.

Country scope: use country (ISO 2-letter like DE, AT, CH, FR) to scope lookup to GLS country organisation. 'EU' covers cross-border.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Step 2 — Installa l'adapter

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Step 3 — Aggiungi il connettore in ChatGPT

  2. Clicca "Add custom connector".
  3. Compila:
    • Name: GLS Track & Trace
    • MCP server URL: https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp
    • Authentication: Bearer token → incolla la tua MCP API key (da AnythingMCP → Profile → MCP API Keys → New Key)
  4. Clicca Connect per autorizzare.
