How to Connect Dodo Payments to ChatGPT

Query your Dodo Payments data directly from ChatGPT using Sequel’s MCP server. Ask questions in plain English, with no SQL, no dashboards, and no context switching.

Short answer

Connect Dodo Payments to Sequel, then add Sequel's MCP server to ChatGPT using the config on this page. ChatGPT can then query your live Dodo Payments data in plain English, with no connector code and no CSV exports. Both steps take a few minutes.

Example prompts

Everything you can ask ChatGPT about your Dodo Payments data.

Ask in plain English — Sequel translates it into a Dodo Payments query, runs it, and ChatGPT hands back the answer. No SQL, no dashboards, no CSV exports.

What you can ask ChatGPT
  • What was our total revenue last month, by currency?
  • How many active subscriptions do we have and how many are set to cancel at the next billing date?
  • Show payments that failed this week with their error codes.
  • Which products drove the most revenue this quarter?
  • List refunds in the last 30 days and the reason for each.

How it works

Three steps to get started

1

Connect Dodo Payments to Sequel

In your Sequel dashboard, go to Connections and add Dodo Payments. Sequel handles authentication and schema discovery automatically.

2

Add Sequel to the agent

Copy the Sequel MCP configuration into ChatGPT's settings file (shown below). Swap in your API key from Settings → API Keys.

3

Ask ChatGPT about your data

Restart ChatGPT and start asking questions. "What was our total revenue last month, by currency?" — and get a real answer backed by live Dodo Payments data.

Why ChatGPT

What ChatGPT does with your Dodo Payments data

Real data, not hallucinations

ChatGPT with Sequel queries your actual databases in real time. Instead of guessing or making up numbers, it fetches accurate data from your connected sources and presents verified results.

Share data insights via ChatGPT conversations

Teams that already use ChatGPT for work can now use it for data questions too. Sequel handles the database access; ChatGPT handles the explanation and formatting.

Analyze data with Python in the same thread

When SQL isn't enough, Sequel's workbench tool lets ChatGPT run Python analyses — statistical summaries, charts, transformations — without leaving the conversation.

Configuration

Add Sequel to ChatGPT

Place this in ChatGPT Settings → Connectors and replace sql_your_api_key with a key from Settings → API Keys.

ChatGPT Settings → Connectors

Server URL:
https://api.sequel.sh/mcp

Authentication:

Install

Install Dodo Payments MCP in ChatGPT

Pick your app and Sequel installs itself: a one-click link where the client supports it, that client’s own few steps where it doesn’t. Every route signs in with your Sequel account over OAuth, so there is no API key to copy and nothing to keep in sync.

Already have an MCP client?

https://api.sequel.sh/mcp

Add it as a remote (streamable HTTP) server and sign in when prompted. Skills come with it; nothing else to install. Manual setup per client

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Dodo Payments to ChatGPT?

You need two things: (1) connect Dodo Payments to Sequel in your Sequel dashboard under Connections, and (2) add the Sequel MCP config to ChatGPT using the setup shown above. Once both are done, ChatGPT can query your Dodo Payments data directly.

What Dodo Payments data can ChatGPT access?

ChatGPT can access any data available through your Dodo Payments connection in Sequel. Use Sequel's search tool to discover available metrics and dimensions, then execute queries to pull the data you need.

Is my Dodo Payments data sent to ChatGPT's servers?

Query results are returned to ChatGPT as context within your conversation. Only the data you explicitly ask about is retrieved. Sequel never stores your query results permanently — they exist only for the duration of the tool call.

Do I need a Sequel account?

Yes. You need a Sequel account to connect Dodo Payments and generate an API key. Sign up free at sequel.sh — no credit card required. Then create a connection to Dodo Payments and generate an API key from Settings → API Keys.

Can I connect multiple Dodo Payments accounts?

Yes. Sequel supports multiple connections of the same type. If you have multiple Dodo Payments accounts or properties, add each as a separate connection in Sequel. ChatGPT will be able to query all of them.

How do I connect Sequel to ChatGPT?

In ChatGPT, go to Settings → Beta Features → Connectors (or Settings → Integrations, depending on your plan). Enter the Sequel MCP URL and your API key as the Authorization header.

Which ChatGPT plans support MCP?

MCP connector support is available on ChatGPT Plus, Team, and Enterprise plans. Check OpenAI's latest documentation for the most current availability.

Can I use Sequel with the ChatGPT API?

Yes — you can pass Sequel as a tool in any OpenAI API request by calling Sequel's MCP endpoint and converting the tool definitions to OpenAI's tool format. Contact us for guidance on this integration.

Is my data stored by OpenAI when I query through ChatGPT?

Query results are sent to OpenAI as context within your conversation and are subject to OpenAI's data handling policies. Review OpenAI's privacy policy for details. Sequel does not store query results.

How do I connect Dodo Payments to Sequel?

In the Dodo Payments dashboard go to Developer → API Keys, add a key with 'Enable write access' unchecked, and paste it into Sequel. Pick 'test' if the key was created in test mode. That's it; no OAuth and nothing to install.

Can Sequel change anything in my Dodo Payments account?

No. Sequel only calls list and read endpoints, and we recommend a read-only key so the credential itself cannot create refunds, products or subscriptions.

Are amounts in dollars or cents?

Dodo Payments returns every amount in the currency's smallest unit (cents for USD, yen for JPY). Sequel's agent knows this and divides before reporting, and never sums across currencies without saying so.

Does it work with test mode?

Yes. Test mode is a separate environment with its own keys; choose 'test' when connecting and Sequel will query test.dodopayments.com instead of live.
