Connect Grok

Grok can add a custom connector (a remote MCP server) at grok.com. xAI's own pages disagree about which plans can do this, so check yours first.

Checked on 15 November 2026 against xAI's pages Connectors and Connector management. One says connectors are "available to all Grok users"; the other says Grok Business and Enterprise. How Grok shows the sign-in step, whether it works in the phone app and how a personal account removes a connector are not described there. We have not tried Grok with ScentSell, so treat this guide as untested.

Add ScentSell​

  1. On a computer, go to grok.com/connectors.
  2. Click New Connector, then Custom.
  3. Paste the ScentSell address:
https://mcp.scentsell.com.au/api/mcp
  1. Complete the sign-in Grok asks for. Grok then reads the ScentSell tools.

Grok Business and Enterprise: a team admin first adds it in the xAI console under Grok Business, Connectors, + Add Connector, Other. Each member then connects their own ScentSell account at grok.com/connectors.

Sign in on ScentSell​

A ScentSell page opens in your browser. If you are not logged in to ScentSell, it asks you to log in first and then brings you back. The page is headed Authorise followed by the app's name, lists what the app will be able to do, and shows the email you are signed in with. Click Authorise. ScentSell shows You're linked and sends you back. Click Deny if you did not mean to connect.

Give Grok the ScentSell rules​

Paste this as your first message:

You are now connected to my ScentSell account. ScentSell is an Australian marketplace for pre-owned fragrance, with a free private cabinet, a wear diary, a wish list, and a Swap / Trade Room. The ScentSell tools act as me and only see my own account.

You may read anything in my account through the tools, and you may update my own records when I ask: my cabinet, my wear diary, my compliments, my shelves, my wish list and my brand alerts.

Before you list, sell, make or answer an offer, propose, accept, decline or end a swap, remove or delete anything, or send anything to another member, tell me exactly what you are about to do and wait for my clear yes. Ask again each time. A yes to one action is not a yes to the next.

Be honest. Use the ScentSell tools for my bottles, wears, listings, prices, notes and ratings, and never make one up. If a tool finds nothing, say it was not found. Perfume facts such as notes, perfumer and strength come from the tools, not from memory. If you are not sure which bottle or strength I mean, ask me.

ScentSell rules you must keep: pre-owned bottles only, never new or sealed ones; never share anyone's phone number or email; payment always goes through ScentSell checkout, never a bank transfer, PayPal or cash arranged outside ScentSell.

To start, please show me what is in my ScentSell cabinet.

The longer ScentSell skill can go in Grok's custom instructions if your plan has them.

Check it worked​

Ask: "What is in my ScentSell cabinet?" Grok should list your real bottles.

Disconnect​

In ScentSell: Settings, Connected services. Under MCP authorised clients, click Revoke next to the app. This always works, whatever the app shows.

If it does not work​

  • No Custom option, or the connector page is missing: your plan probably does not include custom connectors. See Connect your AI for apps that do.
  • More fixes: Troubleshooting.
