The Vero MCP server is in early access. Please provide feedback or issues via email.
Setup has two parts: an admin registers Vero as a custom plugin, then each user connects it individually. Once connected, Vero is available in both ChatGPT Classic and ChatGPT for Work.

​
Prerequisites

  • A ChatGPT plan that supports custom connectors (Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, or Education).
  • On a Business or Enterprise workspace, an admin to enable Developer Mode. On a personal account, you can enable it yourself.
  • A Vero Campaigns API secret key (see Authentication).

​
Part 1: Add Vero as a custom plugin (admin)

Custom MCP servers are added through Developer Mode, which lets ChatGPT call any MCP server you register—not just OpenAI’s vetted connectors. OpenAI notes this carries some risk, so only enable it for servers you trust.
  1. Go to Settings → Security and Login and turn on Developer mode. On a Business or Enterprise account, only an admin can do this. On a personal account, you can enable it yourself. Note that this is under Settings and not Workspace Settings.
  2. Go to Workspace Settings → Apps and click Create. Follow the setup guide. Plugins are superseding apps but, for now, this is the easiest way to add the server.
  3. For authentication, choose API key/Bearer token and paste in your Vero Campaigns API secret key. ChatGPT sends it as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.
  4. Once you’ve saved and added your app, go to Workspace Settings → Plugins, find your new custom app/plugin and select Manage plugin. Ensure it’s set to Enabled. You should now be ready to actually connect to the MCP server, following the steps below.

​
Part 2: Connect the plugin (you)

Once the custom plugin exists, each user connects it under their own account:
  1. Go to Settings → Plugins.
  2. Search for the plugin by the name it was registered under (e.g. “Vero”).
  3. Click Connect.

​
Try it out

Ask ChatGPT things like:
  • “List my scheduled broadcasts for this week”
  • “What’s the status of my [journey name] journey?”
  • “Draft a broadcast called ‘July Newsletter’ on the email channel”
ChatGPT calls the relevant Vero MCP tool and returns the result in the chat.
