Setup guides
AI Connector for JobAdder is a remote MCP connector. You add it to your AI app once, sign in with your JobAdder user, and the app can then work with JobAdder on your behalf.
Connector URLs
- Connector URL (
/mcp): every tool. Use it for everyday chat. - Read-only connector URL (
/mcp/readonly): only tools that read JobAdder. Use it for scheduled tasks and other unattended runs, where nobody is there to approve a change.
Signing in and permissions
The first time you use the connector, your AI app opens a sign-in window. You choose what the app may do, then sign in to JobAdder:
- Read your JobAdder data: always included. The app sees only what your JobAdder user can see.
- Make changes in JobAdder: optional. Allows adding notes, updating records, changing statuses and scheduling events as you.
- Create and manage automations: optional. Allows scheduled digests and alerts delivered to destinations you verify.
JobAdder may ask you to sign in again even if you are already signed in. Then the connector shows the JobAdder user you signed in as: choose Continue if it is you. If it shows someone else, choose Not me, sign out of JobAdder in that browser and connect again.
To change these choices later, disconnect the connector in your AI app and connect again. JobAdder administrators can also make the connector read-only for the whole account from the dashboard.
