How connecting an AI app works

Add the Inbox Triage MCP URL, https://getinboxtriage.com/mcp, to your AI app as a connector. The app opens a sign-in page, you choose Allow, and the app can then work with your connected inboxes.

What is the MCP URL?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI apps use outside services. Inbox Triage is an MCP server. Its address is:

https://getinboxtriage.com/mcp

You can also copy it from Settings, under Advanced, in the Connect your agent card.

What happens when you connect

  1. You add the URL in your AI app's connector settings.
  2. The app opens an Inbox Triage sign-in page in your browser. Sign in if you are not already.
  3. An Allow access page names the app and lists what it will be able to do: read and search mail, write drafts, label, archive, or trash messages, and send a message only after you approve it.
  4. Choose Allow. The app is connected.

If choosing Allow shows Confirm your email address first, open the link we emailed you when you signed up, or choose Send a new confirmation link in Settings. Then start the connection again.

The app never gets your mail passwords. Those stay encrypted on Inbox Triage.

Why didn't pasting the URL into a chat connect it?

The address has to go in the app's connector settings. If you paste it into a message, the app only sees text.

How do I see or remove connected apps?

Open Settings and find Connected agents. Each app shows when it connected and was last used. Choose Disconnect to end its access right away. See Connected agents and API keys.
