5+
6+
<Note>
7+
MCP support in ChatGPT is currently a beta feature. The interface and availability may change as OpenAI continues development.
8+
</Note>
9+
10+
Add web scraping and search capabilities to ChatGPT with Firecrawl MCP.
11+
12+
## Quick Setup
13+
14+
### 1. Get Your API Key
15+
16+
Sign up at [firecrawl.dev/app/api-keys](https://www.firecrawl.dev/app/api-keys) and copy your API key.
17+
18+
### 2. Enable Developer Mode
19+
20+
Open ChatGPT settings by clicking your username in the bottom left corner, or navigate directly to [chatgpt.com/#settings](https://chatgpt.com/#settings).
21+
22+
In the settings modal, scroll to the bottom and select **Advanced Settings**. Toggle **Developer mode** to ON.

26+
</Frame>
27+
28+
### 3. Create the Connector
29+
30+
With Developer mode enabled, go to the **Apps & Connectors** tab in the same settings modal.
31+
32+
Click the **Create** button in the top right corner.
33+
34+
<Frame>
35+
<img src="/images/integrations/mcp/chatgpt/apps-connectors-create.png" alt="Apps & Connectors tab with Create button highlighted" />
36+
</Frame>
37+
38+
Fill in the connector details:
39+
40+
- **Name:** `Firecrawl MCP`
41+
- **Description:** `Web scraping, crawling, search, and content extraction` (optional)
42+
- **MCP Server URL:** `https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/YOUR_API_KEY_HERE/v2/mcp`
43+
- **Authentication:** `None`
44+
45+
Replace `YOUR_API_KEY_HERE` in the URL with your actual [Firecrawl API key](https://www.firecrawl.dev/app/api-keys).
46+

49+
</Frame>
50+
51+
Check the **"I understand and want to continue"** checkbox, then click **Create**.
52+
53+
### 4. Verify Setup
54+
55+
Go back to the main ChatGPT interface. You should see **Developer mode** displayed, indicating that MCP connectors are active.
56+
57+
If you do not see Developer mode, reload the page. If it still does not appear, open settings again and verify that Developer mode is toggled ON under Advanced Settings.
58+
59+
### 5. Access Firecrawl Tools
60+
61+
To use Firecrawl in a conversation, click the **+** button in the chat input, then select **More** and choose **Firecrawl MCP**.

65+
</Frame>
66+
67+
## Quick Demo
68+
69+
With Firecrawl MCP selected, try these prompts:
70+
71+
**Search:**
72+
```
73+
Search for the latest React Server Components updates
74+
```
75+
76+
**Scrape:**
77+
```
78+
Scrape firecrawl.dev and tell me what it does
79+
```
80+
81+
**Get docs:**
82+
```
83+
Scrape the Vercel documentation for edge functions and summarize it
84+
```
85+
86+
## Tool Confirmation
87+
88+
When ChatGPT uses the Firecrawl MCP tools, you will see a confirmation prompt asking for your approval.

92+
</Frame>
93+
94+
You can check **"Remember for this conversation"** to avoid repeated confirmations during the same chat session. This security measure is implemented by OpenAI to ensure MCP tools do not perform unintended actions.
95+
96+
Once confirmed, ChatGPT will execute the request and return the results.
