Which Dash apps do we have on Plotly Cloud?

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

## How to connect Plotly Cloud

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

## Questions

### What is the Plotly Cloud MCP server URL?

Plotly publishes it at https://cloud.plotly.com/\_mcp, and it signs in with OAuth, so there's no key to copy.

### Can I use the Plotly Cloud 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 Plotly Cloud?

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

### Do I have to connect Plotly Cloud before I ask?

No. If a request needs Plotly Cloud 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 Plotly Cloud?

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