1
Copy the server URL
This is the hosted endpoint ChatGPT connects to:
```
https://mcp.canva.com/mcp
```
2
Add a custom connector
In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Connectors (Apps and connectors), and add a custom connector with this URL. Some plans need developer mode turned on first.
3
Sign in if asked
If the server uses OAuth, ChatGPT opens a sign-in page. Then pick the connector from the tools menu in a chat.

MCP servers run with your permissions. If Canva MCP needs an API key, add it under env in the config. Check its README.
