Connect an AI app

Open .md

An AI app such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor can work in your YoPrint team for you. You ask in plain words. The app looks things up, or makes the change you asked for, as you and within your role. It sees and changes only what you can see and change in the web app.

You never copy an API key into the app. You sign in to YoPrint once and approve the app. YoPrint then gives the app its own sign-in, which the app keeps fresh by itself.

  1. Add the addressIn your AI app, add https://mcp.yoprint.com/mcp
  2. Sign inThe app opens YoPrint’s sign-in in your browser
  3. ApprovePick the team, then Read and change data or Read only
  4. Ask“List my five newest orders.”
Connecting takes a few minutes, once per app.

Before you start

Section titled “Before you start”
  • Your team’s plan includes API access (Pro or higher), and the team has an active subscription or trial.
  • Profile shows an AI apps card. Every team whose plan includes API access has it.
  • Your team’s AI access is Read and change or Read only. A team that has never changed it allows Read and change. See Your team’s AI access.
  • Your AI app can add a remote MCP server. MCP is the standard way AI apps connect to other software. Some apps need a paid plan, or an admin’s permission, for this.
  • You can sign in to YoPrint in a browser on the same computer.

The address

Section titled “The address”

Every AI app uses the same address:

https://mcp.yoprint.com/mcp

Use it exactly as shown, with https:// at the start and /mcp at the end. You can also copy it in YoPrint: open Profile, find the AI apps card, and copy Address to add to your AI app.

Add YoPrint to your app

Section titled “Add YoPrint to your app”

Each app’s menus change from time to time. If a name below doesn’t match what you see, look for the app’s way to add a custom connector or a remote MCP server, and give it the address above.

Claude on the web or in the desktop app.

  1. In Claude’s settings, add a custom connector.
  2. Paste https://mcp.yoprint.com/mcp as its address. If Claude offers a client ID and secret, leave them empty: YoPrint registers Claude by itself.
  3. Connect it. Claude opens YoPrint’s sign-in in your browser.
  4. Sign in and approve the connection.
  5. In a chat, check that YoPrint is turned on among Claude’s tools.

On a Claude Team or Enterprise plan, an owner may need to add the connector for the organization first. Each person then connects it and signs in to YoPrint as themselves.

Many apps also ask you before YoPrint changes anything for them. Allow it only for changes you asked for.

Sign in and approve

Section titled “Sign in and approve”
  1. Your app opens YoPrint in your browser. If you aren’t signed in to YoPrint there, sign in first.
  2. YoPrint asks Connect app name to YoPrint? and shows:
    • App: the name the app gave itself, the web address YoPrint sends you back to, and a tag, Verified or Not verified by YoPrint.
    • Signed-in account: your email.
    • Team: the team the app will work in. If more than one of your teams can connect, pick one from the list. A connection works on one team only. A team that allows AI apps to read only is marked “(reading only)”.
    • For an app YoPrint hasn’t verified, a warning: Check this app before you connect. See below.
  3. Under Access, choose:
    • Read and change data: the app can look things up and make changes, as you. It is selected at first.
    • Read only: the app can only look things up. Choose this if you only want answers.
  4. Select Connect. YoPrint sends you back to your app. Cancel stops here, and nothing is connected.

Finish within 10 minutes, in the browser your app opened. After that, start again from the app.

You only see Read only when none of your teams allows changes, or when the app asked only to read.

What “Not verified by YoPrint” means

Section titled “What “Not verified by YoPrint” means”

The name on this page is whatever the app calls itself. Anyone can make an app and call it “Claude”. Not verified by YoPrint means YoPrint hasn’t confirmed who made this one. You can see it for well-known apps too.

Before you select Connect:

  • Make sure you started this connection yourself, from your app, a moment ago.
  • Check the web address after the app’s name. For an app in your browser, it should belong to the company behind it: claude.ai or claude.com for Claude, chatgpt.com for ChatGPT. An app on your own computer, such as Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code, shows your computer’s own address or the app’s name.
  • If anything looks wrong, select Cancel.

Check that it worked

Section titled “Check that it worked”

Back in your app, ask:

List my five newest orders.

It should answer with orders from the team you picked. If it asks you to sign in again, or says it can’t reach YoPrint, see Troubleshooting.

What the team owner controls

Section titled “What the team owner controls”

The team owner, and members whose role has Manage Settings, choose what AI apps may do on the team: Read and change, Read only or Off. That setting is the most any connection can do. See Your team’s AI access.

The first time anyone on a team connects an AI app, YoPrint emails the team owner.

See and end connections

Section titled “See and end connections”

In YoPrint, open Profile, then the AI apps card. Your connected apps on this team lists the apps you connected here. Each row shows what the app can do now, whether YoPrint has verified it, when you connected it, and when it was last active. Apps you connected on another team show when you switch to that team.

To end one, select Disconnect next to it, then confirm. The app loses access to YoPrint at once. Your data and the changes it made stay. To use the app again, connect it again from the app.

Removing YoPrint inside your AI app doesn’t tell YoPrint. Select Disconnect in Profile as well.
