xAI Grok Setup

Bookkeeping in Grok

Connect your books through Grok’s custom MCP connector. You do not need a plugin ZIP or a local server.

MCP server URL

Open Grok Connectors
  1. Connect your accounting under Connections.
  2. At grok.com/connectors, choose New Connector → Custom and paste the server URL above.
  3. Choose OAuth, sign in to Bookkeeping and select the company and permissions. Start with read access; allow writes only when you need to prepare changes.
  4. Once connected, ask Grok to show your connected companies, then try an invoice overview.

Grok Business and Enterprise may require an administrator to add the connector in the xAI console before team members can connect it.

Asked for a Client ID and Client Secret?

If automatic registration is unavailable, copy the callback URL shown by your assistant. Under API Keys → OAuth connectors, create a client using that exact callback URL. Enter its Client ID and Client Secret in your assistant’s OAuth settings. Keep the MCP server URL above unchanged.
