# Ashby MCP: Use Ashby in Slack and Email

Source: https://maito.app/integrations/ashby

Connect the Ashby MCP server to Maito with one sign-in, and your whole team can use it from Slack or email: “How many candidates are in the onsite stage for the PM role?”

Ashby holds your recruiting data: candidates, jobs, interviews and pipeline. Connect the Ashby MCP server to Maito once, and everyone on your team can use Ashby from Slack, by email, or from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Grok or Muse. Nobody else has to sign in.

What's our average time to hire for engineering this quarter?

Maito uses Ashby to do the work and replies where you asked.

## How to connect Ashby

Open Connections in your workspace and choose Connect next to Ashby. You sign in to Ashby in a new tab, and that's the whole setup. Name the account and choose Workspace under who can use it. That's the only time anyone signs in: your whole team, shared chats and Loops can use Ashby from then on. Or skip ahead and ask for the work: Maito sends you a link if Ashby isn't connected yet.

## Questions

### What is the Ashby MCP server URL?

Ashby publishes it at https://mcp.ashbyhq.com/mcp/v1, and it signs in with OAuth, so there's no key to copy.

### Can I use the Ashby MCP server from Slack?

Yes. Connect it to Maito once, then mention Maito in any Slack channel or send it a direct message. The same connection works by email and from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Grok or Muse.

### Does everyone on my team have to connect Ashby?

No. One person connects it once and chooses Workspace. Then everyone in the workspace, shared chats and Loops can use Ashby, without signing in themselves. Choose Only me instead to keep it to your own chats.

### Do I have to connect Ashby before I ask?

No. If a request needs Ashby and it isn't connected yet, your agent sends you a link. Connect it, and the work picks up where it stopped.

### Can I limit what Maito does in Ashby?

Yes. After you connect, turn off any Ashby tools you don't want Maito to use, such as the ones that change data. Tools Ashby adds later stay off until you turn them on.
