# Connect to ChatGPT

> Add Along as an app in ChatGPT to query your Safes directly from conversations.

ChatGPT supports Along as an OAuth-authenticated connector. After connecting, ChatGPT can search your knowledge graph and switch between your Safes — all from within the chat interface.

## Prerequisites

* An Along account with at least one active Safe
* ChatGPT Plus, Team, or Enterprise subscription

## Connect Along to ChatGPT

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open ChatGPT connected apps">
    In ChatGPT, go to **Settings** → **Connected apps**. Alternatively, click the **+** button in the model selector to add a new app.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the Along app">
    Search for "Along" in the app list — or enter the MCP URL manually:

    ```text theme={null}
    https://along-api-qrd5m37v3a-ey.a.run.app/mcp/v1
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize your Along account">
    ChatGPT redirects you to the Along authorization page. Sign in with your Along account credentials.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize the connection">
    Click **Authorize**. ChatGPT completes the connection and your Along tools are now available.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start using Along in conversations">
    In a new conversation, Along tools are active. Ask a question and ChatGPT will use the `along` tool to retrieve answers from your knowledge graph.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## After connecting

Once connected, ChatGPT has access to three Along tools:

| Tool                | What it does                              |
| ------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| `along_list_safes`  | Lists all Safes your account can access   |
| `along_select_safe` | Switches the active Safe for this session |
| `along`             | Queries the active Safe's knowledge graph |

If you didn't select a Safe during authorization, ChatGPT will call `along_list_safes` first and ask you to choose one before running any queries.

Your selected Safe persists in your session token and carries over until you switch.

## Switching Safes

You can switch your active Safe from any ChatGPT conversation:

* **"List my Along safes"** — ChatGPT calls `along_list_safes` and shows available options.
* **"Switch to \[Safe name]"** — ChatGPT calls `along_select_safe` with the matching Safe ID.

<Tip>
  Select the right Safe before starting a long conversation. Switching Safes mid-conversation changes the knowledge graph context, which can affect the relevance of earlier answers.
</Tip>
