ChatGPT reaches the same hosted MCP server as a custom connector. Once it’s added, ChatGPT can fetch any page’s HTML, get AI-parsed JSON, run a Google search, or list a page’s interactive elements - through ScrapeUnblocker, bypassing anti-bot protection (Cloudflare, DataDome, PerimeterX, Akamai, Shape).
Set this up in ChatGPT on the web (chatgpt.com). The connector screens are not available in the ChatGPT desktop app.

What you need

  • A paid ChatGPT plan (Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise) with developer mode. All four ScrapeUnblocker tools are read-only, so a Plus plan is enough.
  • Your ScrapeUnblocker API key - grab it from the dashboard.

Add the connector

1

Turn on developer mode

Open chatgpt.com in your browser, then go to Settings → Plugins and turn on Developer mode (near the bottom of the list; the toggle itself lives under Security & login).

Fill in the connector

  • Name: ScrapeUnblocker
  • Connection: keep Server URL
  • Authentication: No Auth
  • Tick I understand and want to continue
  • MCP Server URL (your key is already in it):
Then click Create.

Use it in a chat

Open the connector to confirm it lists the four tools, then use it in any chat - just ask ChatGPT to fetch or search a page.

Tools

Example prompts

  • “This page keeps blocking me: https://example-shop.com/product/123. Fetch it and list the price.”
  • “Fetch the parsed data for https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08N5WRWNW and summarise the product.”
  • “Search Google for best running shoes 2026 and give me the top 5 links, then fetch the first one.”
Keep the connector URL private - it carries your API key. Anyone who has it can spend your quota. You can rotate the key any time in the dashboard.
ChatGPT connects with your key in the URL (No Auth). OAuth sign-in (no key in the URL) is available on claude.ai.

Troubleshooting

  • No “Plugins” or “Developer mode” in Settings - you’re likely in the ChatGPT desktop app. Open chatgpt.com in a browser instead. (OpenAI renamed “Connectors” to “Plugins” in 2026.)
  • The connector shows fewer than four tools - reopen it from Plugins and check again; all four (fetch_html, fetch_parsed, google_search, list_elements) should be listed.
