Connect Meta Muse Beta
Add MerchLens AI to Muse as a custom connector, then ask about your sales, best sellers, stock and buying plans in Muse, on the web, in the Meta AI app or in WhatsApp. It takes about three minutes.
New in Muse. Meta's custom connectors are new, and Meta hasn't published exact menu names yet. If a step doesn't match what you see, or Muse can't finish connecting, email support@merchlensai.com and we'll help.
What you need
- A Meta account with Muse. Muse is available in the United States and Canada.
- Muse on the web, in the Meta AI app on your phone, or in WhatsApp.
- Your connector link from MerchLens AI (step 1).
Set it up
-
Copy your connector link
In MerchLens AI, open the 🔧 Tools menu, choose 🔌 Connect a chatbot, and click Copy link.
It looks like
https://mcp.merchlensai.com/. Treat it like a password: anyone who has it can read your store's numbers.…/mcp -
Open Connectors in Muse
Go to Settings › Connectors and choose Add custom connector. Paste your connector link and name it
MerchLens AI. When Muse asks how to sign in, choose no sign-in (none).No Add custom connector button? Skip to step 3 and ask Muse to do it for you.
-
Or ask Muse to add it
Send Muse this message, with your own link in place of the example:
Create a Custom Connector for a remote MCP server, then connect to it. Name: MerchLens AI. Transport: streamable HTTP. URL: (paste your connector link). Auth: none, it needs no sign-in or key.Muse saves the connector, so you only do this once. Afterward, delete that message from the chat so the link isn't sitting in your history.
-
Check that it works
Ask Muse: "List the MerchLens AI tools." It should name about sixteen, such as the store overview and the inventory tools. If Muse asks how freely it may use the connector, you can let it run without asking: every tool only reads data.
Try it
Every MerchLens AI tool only reads data; none of them can change your store.
What Muse can see
- Shared: daily sales totals, sales by product, brand and collection, products and stock levels, forecasts, discounts, customer segments as counts, your buying and marketing plans, and your weekly AI briefings.
- Never shared: customer names, emails, phone numbers or addresses, and your Shopify login.
- How fresh: updated every night, and through the selling day while MerchLens AI is running.
Troubleshooting
Muse tries to send me to a sign-in page
MerchLens AI doesn't use a sign-in; the link itself is the key. Tell Muse: "This server needs no authentication. Connect without signing in."
Muse says it couldn't connect
Copy the link again from 🔌 Connect a chatbot. The whole link must be pasted, including the long code in the middle and /mcp at the end.
Muse isn't using my store data
Start your question with "Use MerchLens AI…". Check Settings › Connectors to make sure it's still connected.
The answers use old numbers
The connector panel in MerchLens AI shows when the data was last updated. If it's more than a day old, open 📤 Export for ChatGPT and click Export now. That refreshes the data for every chatbot.
How do I remove it?
Go to Settings › Connectors and disconnect MerchLens AI, or ask Muse to delete the connector.
I shared my link by mistake
Email support@merchlensai.com and we'll issue a new link right away. The old one stops working, and you add MerchLens AI to Muse again with the new one.
Using another chatbot? See all guides. Muse's steps were checked in October 2026 and may change.
