The Streamtime public MCP server is in beta release, accessible to anybody. During the beta period, users may experience some instability as we update and strengthen the capability. Report any issues experienced to help@streamtime.net.
Connection instructions below are current as of August 2026. The AI platforms below change their setup flows often, so check with your specific platform for the most up to date information.
🕰️ Est. Time: 5–15 minutes, depending on your assistant
🎯 Goal: Get your AI assistant talking to your Streamtime account
🔑 Requirements: An active Streamtime login, and an AI assistant that supports remote MCP servers. Plan requirements vary by platform, see each section.
⚠️ Connecting your Streamtime data to a large language model is done at your own risk. AI assistants can misread requests and generate inaccurate or incomplete output. Streamtime is not responsible for the accuracy of AI-generated output, and you should independently review anything that matters, especially financial figures, edits, and deletions, before relying on or acting on it.
Once connected, your assistant can read from and write to your Streamtime account on your behalf. If you haven't yet, read what the connector can and can't do before setting it up.
🔑 What you'll need
No matter which assistant you use, you'll need the following.
The server address: https://mcp.streamtime.net
How sign-in works: The connector uses OAuth 2.0 with Dynamic Client Registration (DCR). In plain terms, that means most assistants only need the server address above. Paste it in, a Streamtime login window opens, sign in, and you're connected.
You don't need to generate an API key, client ID, or client secret by hand. If an assistant asks for those, you can usually leave them blank.
The connector signs in as you and inherits your Streamtime permissions exactly. It can't see or do anything you can't already see or do in the app. Read more about permission levels here.
🤖 Connecting to Claude
Custom connectors are available on Claude Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans, and are in beta.
On Pro or Max:
Go to Customize → Connectors (or open claude.ai/new#settings/customize-connectors).
Click Add custom connector from the top left.
Paste
https://mcp.streamtime.netas the remote MCP server URL.Click Add, then click the Connect button.
A Streamtime sign-in window opens. Log in to authorise the connection. Leave the optional OAuth Client ID and Client Secret fields (under Advanced settings) blank. If you have multiple accounts, ensure you've got the account you'd like to connect to selected.
Once authorised, you can test the connection in any chats. To check the connection, you can ask Claude to run the Streamtime health check.
On Team or Enterprise: an Owner or Primary Owner has to add the connector for the organisation first, under Organization settings → Connectors → Add custom connector. After that, each member connects and signs in individually from their own Connectors settings.
💬 Connecting to ChatGPT
ChatGPT reaches custom MCP servers through Developer mode, on the web app. It's available on Plus and Pro personal accounts; on Business, Enterprise, and Edu a workspace admin has to enable it (and can restrict it) first. Free accounts can't add custom MCP servers.
Turn on Developer mode. In personal accounts this currently lives under Settings → Security and login → Developer mode.
On Business/Enterprise/Edu, an admin enables it under Workspace Settings → Permissions & Roles → Connected Data.
Head to Plugins → Add a new Plugin. Paste
https://mcp.streamtime.net, and set authentication to OAuth.A Streamtime sign-in window opens. Log in to authorise the connection. Leave the optional OAuth Client ID and Client Secret fields (under Advanced settings) blank. If you have multiple accounts, ensure you've got the account you'd like to connect to selected.
Enable the plugin in your conversation. ChatGPT may ask you to confirm each tool call, so approve actions as they come up.
Note: ChatGPT has historically leaned on search and fetch style tools and has been less consistent at using a server's full tool set than some other assistants. If it isn't calling the Streamtime action you expect, ask for it explicitly. You can also check the connection by asking ChatGPT to run the Streamtime health check.
🟦 Connecting to Microsoft Copilot
Copilot is the fiddliest of the three, because "Copilot" covers a few different products and MCP support is aimed at people building agents or administering a tenant, not at the everyday Copilot chat box. You'll need to have an account with Copilot Studio to build the agent, then publish it to your Copilot through Microsoft. Some information on agents and Copilot Studio is available here.
In Copilot Studio (building an agent)
Open your agent and go to Tools → Add tool → New tool → MCP.
Enter
https://mcp.streamtime.netas the server URL.You'll be taken to the MCP configuration wizard. Name and describe the connection however you like. Then select OAuth 2.0 with Dynamic Client Registration
You may need to then complete the connection by clicking the button and signing into Streamtime. As with other tools, ensure you've selected the correct account.
Copilot connects to MCP servers over the Streamable HTTP transport and requires Power Platform / admin permissions for most of this. You may need to ask your Microsoft administrator for the correct permissions and environment setup. If you just want to try the connector quickly, Claude or ChatGPT will be faster to set up.
🔧 Connecting a custom or other client
Any MCP-compatible client such as coding tools like Cursor or VS Code, or even your own application, can connect the same way.
Point the client at:
Server URL:
https://mcp.streamtime.netTransport: Streamable HTTP (SSE is deprecated and not supported)
Authentication: OAuth 2.0 with Dynamic Client Registration. No pre-issued credentials are required, the client registers itself and sends you through a Streamtime sign-in.
Beyond that, follow your client's own instructions for adding a remote MCP server. As with every other assistant, the connection acts as the signed-in Streamtime user and is bound by that user's permissions.
🤝 Official partner listings are on the way. We're lodging applications to be listed as an official partner in the directories of some major AI platforms. Once approved, connecting Streamtime will be simpler. You'll be able to add it from the platform's built-in directory instead of pasting the server address by hand. This guide covers the manual setup that works today.
