Connect Claude & ChatGPT to ClickHelp

Ask your AI where something is explained in your ClickHelp documentation, or have it draft a new topic in the right place. It can search topics across projects, read and update topic content and status, and create folders and move entries in the table of contents. When the docs are ready, it can publish a project and check on the publishing task.

Try asking

“Where do we explain how to reset a password?”
The AI runs a full-text search across your topics and shows the matching topics with their projects.
“Write a topic called 'Exporting reports' under the Reports folder in the User Guide project.”
It finds the folder in the table of contents and creates the topic with a title and HTML body there.
“Update the Installation topic with the new system requirements and set it to Ready for review.”
It reads the topic, updates the body and sets the workflow status you name.

Questions

What can the AI do in ClickHelp?

It can list and read projects, publications, topics, table of contents entries, workflow statuses and users, search your documentation and ask AnswerGenius. It can create projects, topics and folders, update topics and table of contents entries, publish projects, change publication visibility and delete topics if you switch that tool on.

Does the AI see my ClickHelp API key?

No. Your ClickHelp credentials are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with search and reading only. Publishing makes content visible to readers and deleting a topic cannot be undone. Both can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT, open Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced, turn on Developer mode and add your HeyMyApps link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

HeyMyApps has a free plan, and you do not need a credit card to start. Paid plans are billed per completed task. You also need your own ClickHelp account.

What do I need in ClickHelp to connect?

Your portal needs the REST API & MCP add-on, and you need a Contributor account, because only those can get API keys. You get the key by clicking Reset API key on your profile page; ClickHelp then emails it to you. Use that key, not your password.
