- ChatGPT's general-purpose custom-connector support runs through Developer Mode,
17
- which is available on Pro, Team, Enterprise, and Edu plans. Before Developer
18
- Mode shipped, connector support in ChatGPT was limited to read-only Deep
19
- Research connectors. Use Developer Mode to expose the full range of tools the
20
- Zuplo MCP Gateway provides.
20
+ OpenAI's current ChatGPT docs describe full MCP app support, including
21
+ write/modify actions, as a beta for ChatGPT Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans
22

169
+ or pre-register the redirect URL ChatGPT shows on the app management page.
170
+ - **Users have to reauthenticate often.** Check whether your identity provider
