## Introduction

### How to integrate ActiveMerge MCP with ChatGPT Work
[ChatGPT Work](https://openai.com/chatgpt-work/) is an agent inside ChatGPT built for your most ambitious work. It takes action across your apps and files, stays with a project for hours, and turns a goal into finished materials like sheets, slides, and docs - not just answers.
In this guide, I will explain the easiest and most secure way to connect your ActiveMerge account to ChatGPT Work via Composio Connect, so it can generate invoices from saved templates, merge contract files for client signature, store signed ndas in project folders through natural language commands without ever putting your account credentials at risk.

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio over default connectors?
- Apps with read and write access. Default connectors mostly can read your data. Composio's ActiveMerge integration lets ChatGPT Work take actions like creating drafts, sending updates, labeling records, and more.
- 1,000+ SaaS toolkits out of the box. Composio gives you instant access to a vast catalog of pre-built connectors, from Gmail and Slack to Notion, Linear, and Salesforce.
- One MCP server for every app. Connect any of your applications on demand through a single endpoint, rather than juggling a separate server for each app.
- Smart, context-aware tool loading. Unlike traditional MCP servers that dump every available tool into the LLM context window, Composio searches for and loads only the tools relevant to the task at hand.
- Cross-app automation. Chain actions across multiple apps in a single run - fetch a thread, summarize it in Notion, and post highlights to Slack without leaving the conversation.

## Connect ActiveMerge to ChatGPT Work

### Prerequisites
- A ChatGPT account with access to ChatGPT Work (rolling out across Pro, Enterprise, Edu, Plus, and Business plans). We will use the [ChatGPT desktop app](https://openai.com/chatgpt/download/), which is available on every plan.
- Access to the ActiveMerge workspace you want to connect.
- [Composio MCP](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=chatgpt&utm_content=composio_connect&next=%2F~%2Forg%2Fconnect%2Fclients%2Fchatgpt).
Note: Composio connects through OAuth. You will be asked to sign in and approve specific permissions. Review the permission screen carefully if you are using a work account.
### Step-by-step: Connect ActiveMerge to ChatGPT Work
### 1. Open the MCP settings
In ChatGPT Work, go to Settings and open the Plugins section. Inside the Plugins page, click the MCP tab.
### 2. Add the server
Click Add server. In the Name field enter Composio, for Type select Streamable HTTP, and in the URL field paste the Composio MCP server URL:

```bash
https://connect.composio.dev/mcp
```

## What is the ActiveMerge MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The ActiveMerge MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your ActiveMerge account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform ActiveMerge operations on your behalf.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and ActiveMerge MCP?

With a standalone ActiveMerge MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of ActiveMerge tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from ActiveMerge and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with ChatGPT Work?

Yes, you can. ChatGPT Work fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right ActiveMerge tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for ActiveMerge while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which ActiveMerge scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your ActiveMerge data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
