Connect Buffer to Perplexity on the web or desktop using OAuth. No API key needed.

Open Perplexity

Open perplexity.ai in your browser.

2

Open Connectors

Go to "All settings", then "Connectors", and add a "Custom connector".

3

Add the custom connector

Fill in the form, check the "I understand custom connectors can introduce..." consent checkbox, and click "Add":

  • Name: Buffer
  • MCP Server URL: https://mcp.buffer.com/mcp

Under the "Custom" connectors list, find Buffer and click "Add connector".

1

Open Connectors in Perplexity Desktop

Open the desktop app, go to "Settings", then "Connectors", and click "Add connector".

2

Add the server config

Open the "Advanced" tab, then set the Server Name and paste the configuration below, then click "Save":

  • Server Name: Buffer
{
  "command": "npx",
  "args": [
    "-y",
    "mcp-remote",
    "https://mcp.buffer.com/mcp"
