Setting up my first Connector

Updated this week

This guide will help you set up your first Connector, whether you’re looking to use one of the pre-built Featured Connectors, browse our third-party MCP Connectors directory, or configure your own MCP Custom Connector.

Featured Connectors

As an example, we provide detailed guides for a subset of most popular Featured Connectors, covering both connection and disconnection processes, as well as administrator setup where applicable.

Let’s dive in!

Gmail

The Gmail Connector doesn’t need to be set up by an Organization administrator.

Google Calendar

The Google Calendar Connector doesn’t need to be set up by an Organization administrator.

Google Drive

⚠️ The Google Drive Connector needs to be previously set up by an Organization administrator.

Microsoft SharePoint

⚠️ The Microsoft SharePoint Connector needs to be previously set up by an Organization administrator.

Although we don’t provide detailed guides for all Featured Connectors, you can still connect them to le Chat by following the generic instructions below:

  • Select the Connector you want to connect and click it

  • Optionally, if the Connector requires an administrator setup (such as a key or a token—e.g, Github):

    • prepare your credentials or ask your administrator to provide you with the required information

    • enter it in the corresponding configuration fields on the Connector’s page

  • Follow the connection instructions provided by the Connector (typically, you will be redirected to the Connector’s website to authenticate and authorize le Chat to access your data).

  • Once connected, you can start using the Connector in le Chat

Third-party MCP Connectors

Besides our Featured Connectors, Organization administrators can explore our directory of MCP Connectors, or configure their own.

📌 Le Chat Free/Pro/Students are solo-organizations, and the owner of the organization is also the only Admin by default.

Browse the MCP Connectors directory

Configure a Custom Connector

⚠️ This process is more technical and requires a basic understanding of APIs and MCP.
