Connecting Odds compatibility
Connecting Odds runs one MCP server for every client. Microsoft Copilot 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/mcpAuthentication
OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration. Microsoft Copilot 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
Use Copilot Studio to add Connecting Odds as an MCP server for your agent, following Microsoft's current MCP documentation.
Client interfaces change often, so follow Microsoft Copilot’s current MCP or custom connector setup flow and paste the URL above when it asks for a server address.

Troubleshooting
Consumer Copilot chat may not expose MCP; use Copilot Studio agents instead.
- 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.
Only public job data is returned, and account-scoped tools act as your signed-in user.
