Step-by-step setup for connecting Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client to Lifted Work so your AI can manage tasks, emails, and clients.
1 What You Need

- Claude Desktop, Claude Code, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible client
2 Connect from Claude Desktop
- Open Claude Desktop settings and go to the MCP servers section
-
Add a new MCP server with the URL:
https://www.liftedwork.com/mcp - Claude will open a browser window to authorize with your Lifted Work account
- Log in and approve the connection
- Once connected, you can start asking Claude to work with your Lifted Work data
3 Connect from Claude Code
Add the server to your Claude Code configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"lifted-work": {
"url": "https://www.liftedwork.com/mcp"
}
}
}Claude Code will handle the OAuth flow the first time you use a Lifted Work tool.

-
Add a new connection with the URL:
https://www.liftedwork.com/mcp - Authorize with your Lifted Work account when prompted
5 What You Can Do Once Connected
Once connected, your AI has access to your Lifted Work data:
- Create and manage tasks. “Create a daily site backup task for Acme Corp starting Monday through Friday next week.”
- Draft emails. “Draft an email to Acme Corp about their monthly SEO report.” The AI will look up the client’s contacts to find the right recipient.
- Post to client feeds. “Post a summary of this month’s completed work to Acme Corp’s feed.”
- Pull analytics. “How many hours did we spend on Acme Corp last month?” If you’ve connected Google Analytics, Search Console, Google Ads, or Meta, you can pull those reports too.
- Manage milestones and requests. “Create a milestone called Website Launch for Acme Corp due March 15.”
- Create and render reports. “Render the monthly SEO report template for Acme Corp as a PDF.”
- Browse websites. “Check the homepage of acmecorp.com and summarize what they do.”
6 Read-Only vs. Full Access
During authorization, you choose the access level:
- Read-only (
resource:read): List and search tasks, clients, emails, analytics. Nothing is created or modified. - Full access (
resource:write): Everything above plus creating tasks, drafting emails, posting to feeds, and managing milestones.
7 Tips
- The AI already knows your name, email, timezone, and agency from the connection. You don’t need to tell it who you are.
- Use client names naturally in your prompts. The AI will search for the matching client.
- Integration tools (GA4, Search Console, Meta Ads) only appear if your agency has connected that integration in Lifted Work.
