Connect Influee to Claude and ChatGPT

The Influee connector lets Claude and ChatGPT work with your Influee account. Ask about your campaigns, draft offers to creators, review deliveries and confirm shipments in a chat, and the assistant runs the steps in Influee for you.

This guide covers setup, example prompts, permissions, how your data is handled and what to do if something goes wrong.

What the connector does

The connector gives your AI assistant access to the same Influee account you use in the dashboard. Once it is connected, you can ask it to:

  • Run campaigns: create a draft campaign, edit it, submit it for review, duplicate it, open or close recruitment, or remove it.
  • Find creators: search creators on Influee, open a creator's profile and add creators to your lists.
  • Manage collaborations: draft and send offers, accept or decline proposals, withdraw offers, change deadlines, complete collaborations and open a dispute.
  • Message creators: write a draft message for you to check, or send one right away.
  • Handle tasks: confirm shipment or delivery, add tracking links and promo codes, and approve delivered content or raw footage or ask for changes.
  • Work with content and briefs: browse your content library and video transcripts, manage briefs and creative assets, and attach documents from Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, Notion or Canva.
  • Look up account details: brands, products, share links, saved documents and answers from the Influee help docs. Account admins can also read payments, invoices and payment methods.

If you use Claude Code, see Influee Agent for Claude Code for what the agent can do there.

Before you start

You need:

  • An Influee brand account. You sign in with the same email and password you use for the Influee dashboard.
  • A Claude or ChatGPT account that can add custom connectors. In ChatGPT, adding a connector by URL requires developer mode.
  • An active Influee subscription to message creators and to see creator contact details.
  • The admin role on your Influee account to use the billing tools (payments, invoices and payment methods).

The connector URL is:

https://mcp.influee.co/dashboard/mcp

Connect Influee to Claude

  1. Go to claude.ai and open Settings, then Connectors. On some plans this lives under Customize.
  2. Click Add custom connector.
  3. Enter Influee as the name and https://mcp.influee.co/dashboard/mcp as the URL, then click Add.
  4. Click Connect. A new window opens with the Influee sign-in page.
  5. Sign in with your Influee account and approve access.
  6. Back in Claude, start a new chat and make sure Influee is turned on in the tools menu.

On Team and Enterprise plans, an organization owner may need to add the connector first before members can connect.

Connect Influee to ChatGPT

  1. In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Apps & Connectors.
  2. Under Advanced settings, turn on Developer mode.
  3. Click Create (or Add) to add a new connector.
  4. Enter Influee as the name and https://mcp.influee.co/dashboard/mcp as the URL, and choose OAuth as the authentication method.
  5. Save, then sign in with your Influee account in the window that opens and approve access.
  6. In a new chat, pick Influee from the tools menu and ask your question.

Once Influee is listed in the Claude and ChatGPT directories, you can also add it straight from there: search for Influee, click Connect and sign in. You don't need to enter a URL.

Example prompts

Try these once you're connected:

  • "List my active campaigns and how many creators applied to each."
  • "Which deliveries are waiting for my review?"
  • "Draft an offer to creator Ana for my Spring Launch campaign with a $150 reward."
  • "Confirm I shipped the product to Ana with tracking link https://track.example.com/123."
  • "Summarize the views and engagement of my Spring Launch campaign."
  • "Find skincare creators in Germany and add them to my 'Q3 shortlist' list."
  • "Draft a message to every creator in my Summer campaign reminding them the deadline is Friday. Don't send it yet."
  • "Add the promo code SPRING15 to all collaborations in my Spring Launch campaign."
  • "Show me the raw footage Marko delivered and ask for a brighter retake of the first shot."

What the assistant can and can't do

The assistant acts only through your account and only when you ask. It can read the same data you see in the dashboard and make the same changes you could make yourself.

Actions that send something to a creator or move money ask for your confirmation before they run. That includes sending a message or offer, accepting a proposal (which charges your payment method), and removing or withdrawing something. Read what the assistant is about to do before you approve it.

The assistant can't:

  • do anything your role or subscription doesn't allow, such as reading billing records without the admin role or messaging creators without an active subscription;
  • see accounts or brands you don't have access to;
  • change your Influee password or login details.

Permissions and security

  • You sign in with Influee, not with the assistant. The connection uses OAuth 2.0. Your Influee password is never shared with Claude or ChatGPT.
  • Your account permissions apply on every request. The connector checks your role and subscription each time the assistant calls a tool, the same way the dashboard does.
  • Access expires. A connection stays signed in for 90 days. After that, the assistant asks you to sign in again.
  • You can disconnect anytime. Remove or disconnect Influee in the assistant's connector settings (Claude: Settings → Connectors; ChatGPT: Settings → Apps & Connectors). This ends the assistant's access to your account.

Data and privacy

Data you request through the connector is sent to the assistant you use, and Anthropic (Claude) or OpenAI (ChatGPT) processes it under its own terms and privacy policy.

Influee logs every action the assistant runs, including the action name, its parameters, the result and the time, for security, troubleshooting and abuse prevention.

A few features use other services to do their job:

  • Help docs search sends your question to OpenAI to write the answer.
  • Message search sends your search query to OpenAI to find matching conversations.
  • Creating a brand or product from a website reads that website and uses OpenAI to fill in the details.
  • Attaching a document to a brief fetches it from Google, Notion or Canva.

Read the full details, including how long data is kept and how to request deletion, in our Privacy Policy. Use of the connector is covered by our Terms of Service.

Frequently Asked Questions

The assistant says my Influee session expired or asks me to sign in again. What do I do?

Connections last 90 days. When one expires or is revoked, open the connector settings in Claude or ChatGPT, disconnect Influee, connect it again and sign in.

I get an error saying a subscription is required.

Messaging creators and viewing creator contact details need an active Influee subscription. Check your plan in the Influee dashboard, then try the request again.

Why can't the assistant see my payments or invoices?

Billing tools are available only to account admins. Ask an admin on your team to change your role, or have them run the request.

The assistant doesn't use Influee when I ask about my campaigns.

Make sure Influee is turned on for the chat in the tools menu, and mention Influee in your prompt, for example 'In Influee, list my active campaigns.'

I connected the wrong Influee account.

Disconnect Influee in the assistant's connector settings, sign out of the Influee dashboard in your browser, then connect again and sign in with the right account.
