# Merchkit MCP: Use Merchkit in Slack and Email

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

Connect the Merchkit MCP server to Maito with one sign-in, and your whole team can use it from Slack or email: “Which products are missing descriptions or images?”

Merchkit is a product catalog for ecommerce: product data, feeds and listings. Connect the Merchkit MCP server to Maito once, and everyone on your team can use Merchkit from Slack, by email, or from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Grok or Muse. Nobody else has to sign in.

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

## How to connect Merchkit

Open Connections in your workspace and choose Connect next to Merchkit. You sign in to Merchkit 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 Merchkit from then on. Or skip ahead and ask for the work: Maito sends you a link if Merchkit isn't connected yet.

## Questions

### What is the Merchkit MCP server URL?

Merchkit publishes it at https://www.merchkit.com/api/mcp, and it signs in with OAuth, so there's no key to copy.

### Can I use the Merchkit 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 Merchkit?

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

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

No. If a request needs Merchkit 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 Merchkit?

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