Connecting Odds compatibility

Connecting Odds runs one MCP server for every client. ChatGPT calls the same search_jobs and get_job tools, backed by the same ranked search engine the website uses — there is no client-specific search behaviour.

Required transport

Remote MCP (Streamable HTTP). The endpoint is:

https://connectingodds.com/mcp

Authentication

OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration. ChatGPT redirects you to Connecting Odds, you approve the connection, and the client stores a scoped access token. You never paste a key, password or database credential.

Setup steps

Open ChatGPT settings, enable connectors/developer mode, then follow the client's current custom connector flow and paste the Connecting Odds MCP URL. Approve the Connecting Odds sign-in prompt when it appears.

Client interfaces change often, so follow ChatGPT’s current MCP or custom connector setup flow and paste the URL above when it asks for a server address.

Troubleshooting

If the connector does not appear in a chat, enable it from the composer's tools menu and start a new conversation.

  • MCP connection failed: Remove the connector and add it again with the copied URL, then restart the client.
  • Authentication failed: Disconnect and reconnect to trigger a fresh sign-in, and approve the Connecting Odds consent screen.
  • Tools not appearing: Refresh the connector's tools, then start a new chat or session.
  • No jobs returned: Loosen one constraint at a time — drop the salary floor or widen the location — and ask again.
