  • See your team members, their roles and quotas, and assign fax numbers from Claude or ChatGPT.
  • For corporate Fax.Plus accounts; the team tools may need an admin or owner role.
  • Looking is read-only; assigning a number asks for your approval.
  • Works with Claude, ChatGPT and other AI assistants that support remote MCP with OAuth sign-in.

On a corporate Fax.Plus account, see your team and assign fax numbers to members from Claude or ChatGPT with the Fax.Plus MCP connector: who is on the account, what role and quota they have, and which number belongs to whom.

Before you start

  • Use a corporate Fax.Plus account on a paid plan and an existing authorized Fax.Plus MCP connection. The team tools may need an admin or owner role.
  • Use a compatible client with remote MCP support. These steps use Claude web; interface labels may differ in ChatGPT and other clients.
  • MCP is unavailable for accounts with Advanced Security Controls, including HIPAA and PHIPA configurations.
  • Not sure about your role? Check your plan and role first.

For connection help, see the Fax.Plus MCP setup hub and the client connection guide.

How to see your team and assign numbers

  1. Open a new chat. Use your connected assistant with Fax.Plus available.
  2. See your team. Enter “Show the members of my account.” The tool catalog calls this list-members (list corporate members). This is read-only.
  3. Check one member. Ask for a member's role and quota (get-member-details: get corporate member role and quota). This is read-only.
  4. See your numbers. Ask which numbers you have and who they are assigned to (list-numbers, get-number). See find your fax numbers.
  5. Assign a number. Name the number and the member. The assistant shows the change and asks for your OK (update-number: update number assignment).

Looking at the team and the numbers changes nothing. Assigning a number does.

Before you confirm

Assigning a number changes who the number is assigned to on your account. Check the number and the team member the assistant names before you confirm, and keep the Fax.Plus number tool on Needs approval so nothing changes without your OK.

What the assistant cannot do

Inviting members, changing roles and quotas, and resending invitations are available through the REST API only. They change who has access to the account, so they are not exposed as MCP tools. See MCP or REST API.

Example prompts

Copy a prompt into your connected assistant and replace the text in brackets.

See my team

Show the members of my Fax.Plus corporate account by name and role. Leave out email addresses.

Copy prompt

Check a member

Show the role and the quota of [team member].

Copy prompt

See number assignments

Show my fax numbers and who each one is assigned to. Leave out the full numbers.

Copy prompt

Assign a number

Assign the fax number [number] to [team member]. Show me the change first and wait for my OK.

Copy prompt

Understand the result

A team lookup returns the members of the account and their roles. If the assistant says it is not allowed, your role may not include the team tools; check your plan and role first. After an assignment, ask the assistant to show the number again to confirm who it is assigned to.

If a tool is unavailable or reports a failure, the action did not run; check the connection and the account before trying again.

Keep member details and full numbers out of shared screenshots and summaries.

FAQs

Why can't my assistant see my team members?

The team tools are for corporate accounts and may need an admin or owner role. Ask your assistant which plan you are on and whether you are an owner or admin, then check with your account owner if the answer is no.

Can my assistant invite a new team member?

No. Inviting members, changing roles and quotas and resending invitations are available through the REST API only. They are deliberately not exposed as MCP tools because they change who has access to the account.

Why do I see no Fax.Plus tools after signing in?

The authorization may not have finished. Return to your assistant, complete the Fax.Plus sign-in and refresh the connection. In Claude, reopen the connector under Settings → Connectors. In ChatGPT, select Refresh. Tools set to Blocked in the permissions also cannot be used. If the problem continues, contact Alohi Support with the client name and the error. Do not include passwords or tokens.

Why does Claude not use Fax.Plus in my conversation?

Connecting the connector and using it in a chat are separate steps. Open the conversation, select + → Connectors and make sure FaxPlus is enabled. Also check the connector's tool permissions: tools set to Blocked cannot run, and tools set to Needs approval wait for your confirmation. If FaxPlus is missing from the list, go back to Settings → Connectors and confirm that it shows as connected.

Why does ChatGPT not use Fax.Plus in my conversation?

Select FaxPlus from the available apps or tools in the chat, or type @ and choose it. If it is not listed, open the app, sign in again and select Refresh. Available options depend on your ChatGPT plan and workspace settings.

Can I connect a HIPAA or PHIPA Fax.Plus account?

No. Fax.Plus MCP is unavailable for accounts with Advanced Security Controls enabled, including HIPAA and PHIPA configurations. Keep the security controls required by your organization in place and contact Alohi to discuss a suitable integration.

Do I need Fax.Plus Enterprise to use MCP?

No. OAuth connections are available on paid Fax.Plus plans starting with Basic. Enterprise is required for Personal Access Tokens. Your AI assistant has its own access requirements. See plan availability.
