Already Using the Manual Connector?
You can switch to the directory version: remove your existing custom Return Helper connector, then connect Return Helper User from the directory listing. Keeping both may show duplicate tools in your conversations.
Testing the Connection
Once connected, ask Claude:
"What tools are available from Return Helper?"
"Who am I in Return Helper?"
Claude should list tools for return requests, warehouse inventory, shipment status, and related account data, and confirm which Return Helper account is connected.
Troubleshooting
Can't find Return Helper User — Try the search link. On Team/Enterprise plans, an Owner must add it first, or click Request. Otherwise, use Option B.
Sign-in page doesn't load — For manual setup, confirm the Server URL is exactly https://mcp-user.returnhelpercentre.com/mcp
"Authorization failed" after login — Double-check your Return Helper username and password. Contact your account admin if you're unsure of your credentials.
Connected, but tools return no data — Confirm your Return Helper account has access to the warehouses or shipments you're querying.
Connector not visible to team members — Confirm an organization Owner has added it (Option A or Option B).
Duplicate Return Helper tools — Remove the old custom connector and keep Return Helper User.
Security Note
Return Helper User is published by Return Helper and appears in Claude's directory as a Community connector, meaning it has passed Anthropic's automated review. Each user signs in with their own credentials, and Claude can access only the data that account is authorized to view.
Only connect accounts you're authorized to use, do not share Return Helper credentials between users, and review what data Claude can access before enabling the connector in shared or sensitive conversations.

For Workspace Administrators
If your organization manages plugin access:
-
Open your ChatGPT workspace settings or admin console.

Allow members to install and connect Return Helper User according to your organization's policies.

Using both versions may result in duplicate Return Helper tools.
