OneSignal AI is the assistant built into the OneSignal dashboard. The OneSignal connector and plugin bring OneSignal into Claude and ChatGPT, where you may already do the rest of your work.
Prerequisites
- A OneSignal login with access to the apps you want to work with.
- Claude or ChatGPT. On a business plan, your admin may need to allow OneSignal first. Each setup section below explains what to ask for.
What you can ask
Ask in your own words. You don’t need special commands. Your assistant picks the right OneSignal action and shows you the result. Look up users- “Find the user with external ID
user_123and list their subscriptions.” - “Add the email address jane@example.com to that user.”
- “Show my last 10 messages and how each one performed.”
- “Give me the delivery and click numbers for yesterday’s push.”
- “Create a segment of users with the tag
planset topremium.” - “List my email templates and show me the newest one.”
- “How is my onboarding Journey performing, step by step?”
- “Duplicate my welcome Journey as a new draft.”
- “Is my sending domain set up correctly?”
- “What are my bounce and spam complaint rates?”
- “I’m about to email 500,000 people. Do I need to warm up first?”
- “Send a push to my QA segment that says the sale starts at noon.”
- “Export my subscribers to a CSV.”

-
send_messageis marked as a high-impact action, so compatible AI clients may ask for confirmation before running it. - Your login sets the limits. Your assistant can see and change only what your OneSignal login can, in every app you have access to.
- You can disconnect at any time. Go to Settings > Account settings > Connected apps in OneSignal and revoke the connection. Revoking it doesn’t affect your teammates’ connections.
Troubleshooting
- OneSignal doesn’t show up in my Claude chat. Click +, hover over Connectors, and turn on OneSignal for that chat.
- I can’t connect or install OneSignal. Your Claude organization or ChatGPT workspace may need an admin to allow it first. See the note in your assistant’s setup section.
- The assistant says “tool access is not enabled for this application.” OneSignal hasn’t turned on AI tool access for your OneSignal login yet. Contact OneSignal support.
- I see the wrong apps, or an app is missing. You may be signed in with a different OneSignal login. Disconnect OneSignal in your assistant’s connector or plugin settings, and sign out of OneSignal in your browser. Then connect again and sign in with the right login.
- I added OneSignal to Claude by URL before it was in the directory. Remove that connector and connect again from the directory.
- Something else isn’t working. Disconnect and reconnect OneSignal, then start a new chat.
