Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Acquia DAM

Ask your AI to find the right image or file in Acquia DAM, check its metadata and release dates, or tag a batch of assets. It can search assets, read and update metadata, manage tags and file names, and see versions. It can also look up and create products, and set up Workflow projects with deliverables.

Try asking

“Find the latest product photos for the Nordic range.”
The AI searches assets with the DAM quick-search syntax and lists matches with file details and preview links.
“What metadata does the spring campaign hero image have?”
It reads the asset's metadata field values, so you can see what is filled in and what is missing.
“Tag these three assets with 'campaign-2026'.”
It adds the tag to each asset and leaves the other tags in place.

Questions

What can the AI do in Acquia DAM?

The AI can search and read assets, metadata, versions, security settings, collections, categories, metadata fields, asset groups, users, products, product categories and channels. It can update metadata, add and remove tags, rename files, delete assets, create and rename products, and create Workflow projects and deliverables.

Does the AI see my Acquia DAM access token?

No. Your Acquia DAM credentials are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start read-only. Deleting an asset can require your approval before it runs, and you can leave metadata and product changes switched off until you trust the setup. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your PipMCP link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

PipMCP has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own Acquia DAM account.

Where do I get an Acquia DAM access token?

Log in to Acquia DAM as an admin and open Admin > Global Settings > API Setup. Generate a personal access token there, copy it and paste it into PipMCP.
