Model Context Protocol (MCP) is how compatible AI apps talk to external tools. WhopMail’s MCP server lets ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and Grok work inside your email account—reading live data, drafting campaigns, and, when you allow it, sending or activating automations.
Without a connection, you paste numbers into a chat, get advice, and rebuild the campaign by hand. With WhopMail MCP, the assistant can pull the right report and prepare the work in the product. That saves handoffs, and it makes permissions matter more.
The WhopMail MCP endpoint
https://www.whopmail.com/api/mcp
Use www.whopmail.com every time. Other hosts may strip auth headers. Full OAuth and API-key setup: WhopMail MCP docs.
OAuth is the usual path for ChatGPT, Claude connectors, Cursor, and Grok Custom Connectors. Create an MCP key in Settings → MCP / AI agents, then paste it on the consent page when the browser opens. CLI and legacy clients can send Authorization: Bearer wpml_… instead.
The company is always taken from the credential. Agents cannot pass another companyId.
Scopes you choose
| Scope | What it unlocks |
|---|---|
mcp:read |
Dashboard, campaigns, automations, audiences, settings, abandoned shoppers, related insights |
mcp:draft |
Draft/update/delete campaigns, draft automations, prepare or upload audiences, promo codes, sending settings, custom domain helpers |
mcp:send |
Test send, live or scheduled send, cancel schedule, and documented Whop internal DM/support sends |
mcp:automate |
Activate or deactivate automations, sync abandoned checkout (and related sync tools where documented) |
Start with read. Add draft when you want saved work in the account. Add send and automate only after a successful acceptance test.

What the tools cover
WhopMail exposes account actions in plain groups:
- Reads —
get_dashboard_summary,list_campaigns,list_automations,list_audiences,get_settings, abandoned-shopper lists and insights, and other documented read tools - Drafts —
draft_campaign,update_campaign,delete_campaign,draft_automation,prepare_audience,upload_manual_audience,create_promo_code, plus sending-settings and custom-domain updates - Sends —
test_send_campaign,send_campaign,cancel_scheduled_campaign - Automations —
activate_automation,deactivate_automation,sync_abandoned_checkout
Exact tool names can grow as we ship features. If a tool is missing for a job you need, say what you want—we build MCP coverage as merchants grow.
Shopify merchants use the same model through EmailSync.
Evaluate your WhopMail connection
Use this checklist on your account, not a brochure claim.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Which reads and writes does my key allow? | A reporting-only key will not create or send campaigns |
| Is authentication tied to my company? | Access should land on the correct business every time |
| Can I leave send off while drafting? | Analysis should not require live-send power |
| Do drafts stay unsent until I approve? | “Prepare a campaign” must not launch one |
| Are suppressions enforced? | Preferences have to survive agent workflows |
| Can I revoke the key or disconnect the client? | You need a clean off switch |
| Can I review what changed? | Unexpected actions should be investigable |
| How are retries handled? | A timeout must not create duplicate sends |
These are the bar for a production connection. Pass them before you expand scope.
Run a small acceptance test
Use a test workspace or a carefully limited key if you have one. Keep mcp:send off for the first pass.
- Ask the assistant to identify the connected WhopMail business and summarize a campaign you already know. Compare the answer with the dashboard.
- Ask for one unsent draft from an approved brief. Confirm it stayed unsent and matches the brief.
- Leave out a required detail (for example the destination URL). The assistant should ask or mark it missing—not invent a link.
- Test audience selection with known eligible and suppressed people. Confirm exclusions hold.
- Only then, if live sending is part of your plan, grant
mcp:send, use an explicitly approved internal recipient, and inspect the result.
Precise prompts to start with
Discovery:
Identify the connected WhopMail workspace and list the email marketing actions available through this connection. Do not modify anything. Explain which actions are read-only, which create drafts, and which can send or schedule messages. If you cannot determine a permission, say so.
Narrow draft:
Create one unsent draft in WhopMail from this approved brief. Do not create a new audience or alter subscription status. Return the saved draft identifier and any missing fields. Do not retry a potentially completed write until its status is checked.
Use the current docs for client setup. Interfaces change; the docs are the source of truth for configuration.
You still own the decision
MCP transports access to tools. It does not verify your offer, prove consent, or guarantee a campaign will convert. Keep a clear owner for audience, content, approval, and follow-up.
