--- area: "email" title: "Email" tools: 10 mcp_server: "https://api.conecto.chat/mcp/email" auth: "Authorization: Bearer " docs_url: "https://conecto.chat/tools/email" --- # Email Email inboxes on the business's own subdomain, like support@halverson-cycle-repair.useconecto.com. The agent sends, receives and reads threads, and an inbox can open help desk tickets or save attachments to the file store. Inboxes are for support, operations and replies, so new addresses a day are capped and free credit never emails outsiders. Replaces: Gmail (Google Workspace), Outlook (Microsoft 365). ## MCP server `https://api.conecto.chat/mcp/email` connects the Email tools only, plus the account tools that come with every MCP server. It speaks MCP over Streamable HTTP; send the key as `Authorization: Bearer `. Every tool here is also a REST call: `POST https://api.conecto.chat/v1/tools/` with the arguments as a JSON object. ## ChatGPT and Claude Add `https://api.conecto.chat/v1/mcp` as a connector in ChatGPT or Claude, one for every area, and tick Email when you sign in. It signs in with OAuth: someone on the account signs in on conecto.chat, ticks the areas it may use and allows it, and it runs on a key of its own that the owner can revoke. ## OpenAPI For a custom GPT's Actions: `https://api.conecto.chat/v1/openapi/email.json` (OpenAPI 3.0, the key as a Bearer token). For Power Automate, Logic Apps and Copilot Studio connectors: `https://api.conecto.chat/v1/openapi/email.swagger.json` (OpenAPI 2.0, the key in the X-Api-Key header). Both list this area's tools and the account tools.
