Introduction
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) server allows you to seamlessly integrate Docebo with enterprise AI assistants (MCP clients) like ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, and Gemini.
By using this integration, you can interact with your learning content through natural language, without navigating through menus in the Docebo platform.
This article is intended for standard users. It explains how to connect your AI assistant to Docebo, which learning activities are available, and how to prompt your AI assistant effectively.
Requirements and limitations
- The Docebo MCP server must be configured by your administrator before you can use it. Contact your administrator if the Docebo connector is not available in your AI assistant.
- The integration operates entirely within your existing Docebo permissions. The visibility of content and the actions available to you are the same as in the platform. If an action cannot be completed, you will receive an error message.
- MCP clients can perform actions in Docebo on your behalf. Review requests carefully before confirming.
- Playing learning items directly inside the AI assistant is officially supported in ChatGPT on the browser and desktop app. Other MCP clients are not officially supported for this capability, and playback is not currently available in Claude.
Getting started
Before you can use the integration, you need to connect your AI assistant to Docebo. This is a one-time step.
Open a browser tab and log into Docebo as you normally would. Then, in your AI assistant, find the Docebo connector in the list of available enterprise connectors and click the authorization link to start the authentication flow. Once authorized, your AI assistant is linked to your Docebo account and you can start using the integration right away.
Note for SSO users: If your organization uses Single Sign-On (SSO), you should be redirected to your organization's sign-in page when authorizing your AI assistant.
If you are prompted to enter your Docebo username and password instead, open a new browser tab, sign in to Docebo through your organization's normal SSO process, then return to your AI assistant and retry the authorization.
Interacting with Docebo through your AI assistant
Once your AI assistant is connected to the Docebo MCP server, you can use natural language to find learning content, check your learning activity, retrieve information about your certifications, and ask questions about supported learning items.
If your administrator has enabled the “Play learning item” tool and you are using a supported AI assistant, you can also launch and consume learning items directly within the conversation.
Checking your learning activity
Try asking:
- “What courses have I completed?”
- “Which courses and learning plans am I currently enrolled in?”
- “Do I have any certifications expiring soon?”
Finding learning content
Try asking:
- “I am interested in data privacy. What courses do we have available?”
- “Find learning content about leadership.”
- “Based on my completed courses, what advanced leadership courses should I take next?”
Asking questions about learning content
Try asking:
- “Summarize the key concepts covered in the compliance training.”
- “What does the cybersecurity course cover?”
- “What are the main principles of effective communication?”
Playing learning content
If the “Play learning item tool” is available, try asking:
- “Play the cybersecurity course.”
- “Open the recommended compliance training.”
The selected learning item opens directly within the supported AI assistant, allowing you to start learning without leaving the conversation.
