Give Perplexity file storage

Perplexity can call tools on a remote MCP server. Add agentdrive as a custom connector, and it can save files you open with a link.

Custom connectors are on Pro, Max and Enterprise. The Plugins page is in the web, desktop and mobile apps.

  1. Get your free drive

    Sign in and your first drive is created for you. Use the browser where the sign-in page will open. Free: one drive, 500 MB, 25 MB per file.

    Get a free drive
  2. Open Plugins

    Open Plugins in the sidebar, or Customize → Connectors if you do not see Plugins yet.

    Choose Add custom → Add MCP connector, then select Remote.

    Open Perplexity plugins
  3. Fill in the connector

    Enter the name and URL. Under Advanced, set these three options.

    No client ID or secret is needed. Tick the acknowledgement checkbox, then select Add.

    Name: agentdrive
    MCP server URL: https://useagentdrive.com/mcp
    Authentication: OAuth
    Transport: Streamable HTTP
    Network access: Public
  4. Authenticate

    Select the agentdrive card on the Plugins page to start sign-in.

    Pick your drive and allow access.

  5. Ask Perplexity to save

    Try this prompt. The file appears in your drive within seconds, with a link you can share.

    Using agentdrive, save these sources as sources.md and give me the link.

Questions

Which transport should I choose?
Streamable HTTP. agentdrive serves MCP over Streamable HTTP and does not offer SSE.
Does it work in the phone apps?
Perplexity says the Plugins page is in the mobile apps too. Sign-in opens agentdrive in a browser.
Does it work in Comet?
We found no connector setup in Comet’s docs. Use the Perplexity app or perplexity.ai.
