Connect Claude & ChatGPT to MapsIndoors

Ask your AI which rooms and points of interest are on a floor, to rename a meeting room, or to put a set of desks in a new category in your MapsIndoors solution. It can create and update geodata, categories and location types, find what lies at a coordinate, and lock or reopen route elements so routes avoid a closed area.

Try asking

“List all meeting rooms in building A.”
The AI reads the geodata for the solution filtered by type and lists the rooms with names and IDs.
“What is at 55.676, 12.568 on floor 2?”
It finds the venue, building, floor and room at that point.
“Rename room 2.14 to Aurora.”
It reads the room, updates its name and saves it. The new name shows on the live map.

What your AI can do

Locations

List, create, update and delete geodata such as venues, buildings, floors, rooms and POIs, and find what lies at a point.

Categories and types

Read and edit categories with translated names, and location types with their icons and labels.

Routing

List routing graphs and route elements, and update wait times, restrictions and one-way directions.

“Create a category Charging stations in English and Danish.”
It creates the category with the key and the translated names you gave.
“Block the stairs by gate B for the next hour.”
It finds the route element in the routing graph and sets its restriction to locked, so routes avoid it.
“Which location types do we use, and what icons do they have?”
It lists the location types with their display rules, such as icons and labels.

Questions

What can the AI do in MapsIndoors?

The AI can read the dataset, list, create, update and delete geodata, find the geodata at a coordinate, manage categories and location types, list routing graphs and route elements, update route elements' restrictions and wait times, and list app user roles.

Does the AI see my MapsIndoors API key?

No. Your MapsIndoors 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 with lookups only. Changes to geodata, location types and route elements show on your live map, and deletes cannot be undone, so those tools can require your approval before they run. 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 MapsIndoors account. PipMCP is an independent service and is not affiliated with MapsIndoors.

Why does PipMCP ask for my login and a solution API key?

The MapsIndoors Integration API signs in with your CMS username and password and returns an access token, which PipMCP renews for you. The solution API key picks which solution the AI reads and edits. Your account needs a role such as editor or admin to make changes.
