Granola MCP | Chipp Docs

Connect your Granola account through Granola’s official MCP server. Your AI assistant can then list your meetings, read meeting notes and summaries, and ask Granola questions about your meeting history.

Two ways to connect Granola

Chipp has two Granola connections. They are separate, and you can keep both.

	Granola (sign in)	Granola API key
How you connect	Sign in to Granola in a popup	Paste a Granola API key
Granola plans	Every plan, including Basic (free)	Business and Enterprise
Whose notes	The person who signed in, in their active Granola workspace	The workspace the API key belongs to
Best for	A personal Granola account	One shared workspace credential for a team
Server	`https://mcp.granola.ai/mcp` (Streamable HTTP)	Granola’s REST API (`public-api.granola.ai`)

Use the sign-in connection for a personal account. Use the API key when your team wants one shared credential, or when your workspace admin prefers API access.

What Granola shares

Granola MCP connects as you, an individual Granola user. It returns notes you can access in your active workspace (the workspace selected in the Granola app). It does not combine notes across workspaces.

Personal notes: notes you own, notes shared directly with you, and notes in private folders shared with you.
Public notes: notes visible to everyone in the workspace, and notes in the workspace’s Team space.

Your Granola plan decides how much of this the connection can see:

Basic (free): personal and public notes from the last 30 days. Some folder, search, and transcript tools are not available.
Business: personal and public notes with full history, per Granola’s policy.
Enterprise: your Granola admin chooses which scopes members get. If neither Personal notes nor Public notes is enabled, the connection is blocked.

Connecting Granola to Chipp

Granola uses OAuth with automatic setup. There is no client ID, client secret, or API key to enter.

Go to build.chipp.ai and open your app
Click Brain in the sidebar
Open the Integrations tab and click Browse all integrations
Find Granola under Note-Taking. Pick the one that says Sign in with your own Granola account
Click Connect Granola
Sign in to Granola in the popup and approve access
When the popup closes, Chipp checks the connection with Granola and loads its tools
Check the tools you want and click Save & Enable

ℹ️

Chipp only shows Granola as connected after it has loaded Granola’s tool list with your sign-in. If that check fails, nothing is saved and you can try again.

Available tools

The tool list comes from Granola when you connect, so it depends on your plan. Granola currently offers:

query_granola_meetings - Ask Granola a question about your meetings
list_meetings - List meeting notes you can access, with title, date, and attendees
get_meetings - Read meeting notes, including summaries and your private notes
get_meeting_transcript - Read a meeting’s raw transcript (paid plans only)
list_meeting_folders - List folders you can access (paid plans only)
get_account_info and other helpers - For example, which Granola account and workspace is connected

A Basic (free) account connects without the paid-only tools. That is expected.

Troubleshooting

”Your Granola admin needs to enable MCP access”

Your workspace is on Granola Enterprise and the admin has not enabled MCP note access. Ask them to open Settings -> Workspace -> General -> Apps & connectors -> MCP access and enable Personal notes, Public notes, or both. If your workspace uses a Granola API key, you can connect with the Granola API key integration instead.

Notes are missing

Granola MCP uses your active Granola workspace. Switch workspaces in the Granola app, or ask your assistant which Granola account is connected.
On Basic (free), only the last 30 days are available.
Check that the note is one you own, one shared directly with you, or a workspace-visible note.

Wrong Granola account

Granola can keep you signed in, so the popup may skip the login step. Sign out at mcp-auth.granola.ai/api/logout, then click Connect Granola again.
