Workspace owner quickstart

Free and Pro open directly in the personal Apps experience and keep workspace ownership lightweight. Enterprise keeps the same personal setup under For me and adds a separate control plane for policy and managed rollout.

​

Create your workspace

Sign up at passportmcp.com and confirm your email, or stand up your own deployment (see Self-host). The first person in a workspace is its admin. Joining is invite-only by default, so no one else can appear in your workspace until you add them.

​

1. Connect your first MCP

Connect the first MCP you want to use. You have two paths: Catalog apps start read-only, so an AI client never sees a write capability its user cannot call. On Free and Pro, verified apps are self-service; the owner only steps in when an app needs company setup or a custom endpoint. Enterprise admins can additionally require review and scope rollout to requesters, teams, or the workspace. See Catalog access and passes.

​

2. Connect an AI client

Connect one of your own AI clients so you can test the gateway end to end. The macOS desktop app wires Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and Codex to your workspace in one click, and gives you a paste-in connector URL for ChatGPT and Claude.ai. See the member quickstart for the install steps.

​

3. Invite your team

On Free and Pro, open Settings → Workspace essentials → Manage workspace to invite people and manage the lightweight roster. On Enterprise, open Workspace controls → People to assign roles and teams, manage lifecycle, and apply organization-wide policy. See People and teams.

​

4. See your first governed call

Ask a connected AI client to use one of your MCPs. Within seconds the call lands in Activity, attributed to you, with the client, tool, and outcome. That first governed call completes the checklist.
