ChatGPTConnection basics

ChatGPT apps & plugins

Bring supported tools and business references into your conversation.

Try this: Find an approved source document, then use it to prepare a brief or draft.

See setup, first test & fixes +
  1. Open Settings → Plugins and select the app or its plugin.
  2. Install if offered, then choose Connect when prompted.
  3. Sign in to the provider account that holds the files you need.
  4. Review the requested services and permissions, then complete authorisation.

Your first test

Ask it to find one known file and cite the source. Check the file belongs to the intended account.

If it isn’t available

Paste the approved facts or attach a supported file. You can practise the prompts without a connector.

Availability depends on plan, region, workspace and surface. An installed plugin alone does not establish working app access.

Higgsfield + Claude

Optional image and video creation inside a connected conversation.

Try this: Create a conceptual service-brand background, then review the actual output.

See setup, first test & fixes +
  1. In Claude, open Customize → Connectors and add a custom connector.
  2. Use the official Higgsfield MCP address: https://mcp.higgsfield.ai/mcp.
  3. Connect your Higgsfield account and enable it for the conversation.
  4. Check the current plan, model and cost before requesting a generation.

Your first test

Ask for your credit balance or recent generations first. This checks access without making a new asset.

If it isn’t available

Copy your approved prompt into Higgsfield directly.

Plan requirements and generation billing can change. Do not assume web Unlimited includes your MCP route; check your current entitlement.

Your first test

Request one small supported edit on a copy of your own image, then open the actual result.

If it isn’t available

Open Adobe Express directly and add your original media and editable text layers.

This exposes selected Adobe capabilities. Some require an Adobe account or eligible paid plan; not every Adobe feature is included.

Google Workspace + Claude

Use permitted Gmail, Calendar and Drive information as context.

Try this: Find an approved business brief in Drive or draft a reply from a specific email.

See setup, first test & fixes +
  1. Open Customize → Connectors and choose the Google service you need.
  2. Connect the Google account that already has access to the source.
  3. Complete the provider permission flow; managed workspaces may need admin enablement.
  4. Enable the relevant connector in your conversation.

Your first test

Ask for one known document or calendar event and inspect its source link.

If it isn’t available

Paste only the approved brief or email text you need for the exercise.

Drafting a message and sending it are separate actions. Google Docs, Sheets and Slides live editing uses separate connectors.

Higgsfield + ChatGPT

Explore the provider’s supported ChatGPT connection for image and video workflows.

Try this: Create and inspect one conceptual background for a service-brand design.

See setup, first test & fixes +

Your first test

Confirm access before generating. Review one output before requesting variations.

If it isn’t available

Use the same approved prompt on the Higgsfield website.

This guide describes a dated promotion. Do not rely on its expired trial offer or assume identical tools across ChatGPT and Claude.

HeyGen Video Agent

Plan and create video in HeyGen’s own web app. This guide does not set up a connector.

Try this: Turn an approved brief and originals into a portrait video plan.

See setup, first test & fixes +
  1. Open Video Agent from HeyGen Home.
  2. Choose Chat Mode to review the plan before generation.
  3. Choose the supported duration and orientation, then upload your original media.
  4. Explain the exact text and media requirements; inspect the plan before rendering.

Your first test

Check whether the plan supports your requested format, duration and presenter choice.

If it isn’t available

Assemble the same storyboard in your Adobe video editor with the original media.

Selecting uploaded media or disabling generated scenes does not itself guarantee originals only. Check for substituted stock or generated scenes.

WHEN SOMETHING DOESN’T WORK

Fix the connection
before the prompt.

01

Check the account

Use the account that owns or can access the actual files. A personal login won’t unlock your work account.

02

Check what’s enabled

Installation, provider authorisation and conversation availability are different steps. Read the actual error.

03

Use a direct route

Paste the approved facts or work in the tool itself. A missing connector doesn’t stop you learning the workflow.
