Vaula MCP – Setup and User Guide

Did you know you can use Vaula directly through an AI assistant?

For example, you can ask AI to show your open deals, find a customer’s contact details or log a phone call in Vaula. You don’t need to open your CRM for every task.

No programming skills are required to set up the connection, as long as your AI service supports custom MCP connections.


Before you get started

You’ll need a Vaula user account and an AI service that allows you to add custom connections.

You’ll also need your company’s Vaula MCP address. It follows this format:

https://XXXXX.vaula.pro/api/mcp

Replace XXXXX with your company’s Vaula identifier. For example: https://YOURCOMPANY.vaula.pro/api/mcp

Copy your MCP address. You’ll need it in the next step.

Choose your AI service below and follow the instructions.

Connect Vaula to ChatGPT

The availability of MCP connections in ChatGPT depends on your subscription and your organization’s settings.

Connect Vaula to Microsoft Copilot

MConnecting Vaula to Microsoft Copilot is done through Copilot Studio. This option is particularly useful for businesses building their own AI agents.

  1. Open Copilot Studio.
  2. Create a new agent or open an existing one.

  8. Select OAuth 2.0 as the authentication method and Dynamic discovery, if available.
  9. Create the connection and sign in to Vaula.
  10. Add Vaula’s tools to your agent and test the connection.

Setting up Copilot Studio may require assistance from your company’s IT administrator. The connection also depends on compatibility between Microsoft’s and Vaula’s authentication settings.


Test your Vaula connection

Once you’ve connected Vaula to your AI service, start with a simple request.

Try this first:

“Show me my open tasks in Vaula.”

If the AI assistant retrieves the correct tasks, the connection is working for reading information.

You can also try these requests:

Customer information

“Find Example Company in Vaula and show me its contacts.”

Sales pipeline

“Show me all my open deals and their current pipeline stages.”

Creating a new lead

“Create a new lead for Example Company in Vaula.”

Logging a phone call

“Log a call in Vaula saying that I spoke with Matt Smith today and we agreed to schedule a meeting next week.”

Creating and updating records requires your AI service to support these actions.


What if the connection doesn’t work?

The AI assistant can’t find Vaula

  • Make sure the connection has been added and enabled in the conversation you’re using.

Sign-in fails

  • Check that your MCP address is correct, then try signing in again.

The AI assistant can read data but can’t make changes

  • Check your AI service’s subscription and permissions. Not all services support editing CRM data on every plan.

A customer or deal can’t be found

  • Open Vaula and check that the record exists and that you have permission to access it.

Is the connection secure?

Vaula’s MCP connection uses individual user authentication. You don’t need to give your Vaula password directly to the AI assistant.

The connection operates according to the permissions available to your user account. However, remember that your AI service processes the information shared with it according to its own privacy terms and policies.

For business use, make sure your organization has approved the AI service you’re connecting to Vaula.
