Alternative: Custom GPT with REST API​

If you prefer using a Custom GPT with API key authentication instead of the MCP connector:

Step 1: Create a New GPT​

  1. Go to ChatGPT → My GPTs → Create
  2. Click Create a GPT

Step 2: Configure the GPT​

Name and Description:

  • Name: My Health Assistant (or whatever you prefer)
  • Description: Access my health data for sleep, recovery, and workout insights

Instructions:

You are a personal health assistant with access to my health data via the Wellpipe API.

When I ask about sleep, recovery, workouts, or strain, use the getHealthData action to fetch the relevant data. Provide clear, actionable insights.

For sleep questions, use type=sleep. For recovery, use type=recovery. For workouts, use type=workout. For an overview, use type=summary.

Step 3: Add the Action​

  1. Click Create new action
  2. Click Import from URL
  3. Enter the OpenAPI schema URL:
https://wellpipe.io/openapi.json
  1. Click Import

Step 4: Configure Authentication​

  1. Click the gear icon next to the action

  2. Set authentication:

    • Authentication type: API Key
    • Auth Type: Bearer
    • API Key: Paste your Wellpipe API key (from your dashboard)

  3. Click Save

Step 5: Test and Publish​

  1. Test the GPT in the preview panel
  2. Try: "How did I sleep last night?"
  3. If it works, click Publish (or keep it private)
Don't Share Your API Key

If you share the GPT publicly, anyone who uses it will make requests with YOUR API key and count against YOUR quota.

For public GPTs, each user should:

  1. Get their own Wellpipe account
  2. Create their own GPT with their own API key

Troubleshooting​

  2. Check that the endpoint URL is correct: https://wellpipe.io/api/mcp/chatgpt
  3. Try disconnecting and reconnecting the app

  1. Verify your health provider is connected in the Wellpipe dashboard
  2. Check that your provider has recent data
