Rather than duplicating or indexing your data, MCP connectors retrieve information directly from the source, keeping your workflows accurate, current, and governed by your existing permissions.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To connect an MCP tool to GoSearch, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>From your GoSearch dashboard, navigate to Settings in the left-hand menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select My Connectors, then click Add Connector.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Browse or search for the MCP connector you want to enable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow the on-screen prompts to authenticate and authorize the connection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once connected, your AI agents in GoSearch will be able to reference and act on data from that tool during conversations and workflows.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is MCP?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that allows AI models and agents to interact with external systems as secure, structured tools. Instead of copying your data into a separate index, MCP allows GoSearch agents to query your connected tools directly and in real time. This means your agents always work from the most current, permission-aware information available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about how MCP works and why GoSearch adopted it, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosearch.ai\/blog\/model-context-protocol-smarter-ai-interactions\/?trackSource=gosearch_ai_chat\">Model Context Protocol: Smarter AI Interactions<\/a>.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Can You Do With MCP Connectors?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Once an MCP connector is enabled, your GoSearch agents can retrieve content, surface insights, and take action across your connected tools without ever leaving the GoSearch interface. This enables cross-functional workflows that span multiple systems, all grounded in real-time, trusted data from your source applications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a broader look at how MCP connectors work within GoSearch, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosearch.ai\/blog\/introducing-mcp-connectors-in-gosearch\/?trackSource=gosearch_ai_chat\">Introducing MCP Connectors in GoSearch<\/a>.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Available MCP Connectors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>GoSearch currently supports a growing library of MCP connectors. Each connector is designed to bring a specific tool&#8217;s intelligence directly into your AI workflows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosearch.ai\/blog\/introducing-the-miro-mcp-connector-in-gosearch\/?trackSource=gosearch_ai_chat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Miro MCP Connector<\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Access visual boards and collaborative content from Miro.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosearch.ai\/blog\/introducing-the-hubspot-mcp-connector-in-gosearch\/?trackSource=gosearch_ai_chat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HubSpot MCP Connector<\/a> &#8211; Surface CRM data, contact records, and deal insights from HubSpot.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosearch.ai\/blog\/introducing-the-box-mcp-connector-in-gosearch\/?trackSource=gosearch_ai_chat\">Box MCP Connector<\/a> &#8211; Retrieve files and content stored in Box.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosearch.ai\/blog\/introducing-the-asana-mcp-connector-in-gosearch\/\">Asana MCP Connector<\/a> &#8211; Access project tasks, timelines, and team workspaces from Asana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Security and Governance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>MCP connectors enforce your existing permission model at the source system level. GoSearch agents can only access content that you are already authorized to view, and no data is stored or replicated externally. This ensures that enterprise security, compliance, and governance standards remain intact across every AI-powered workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your MCP connectors are now ready to power smarter, cross-functional AI workflows in GoSearch.
