Set up on their behalf

Use a single-use connect link to set a studio up without the owner having to handle keys — while their data stays theirs.

The owner can do their own setup. But if you're helping several studios, or the owner would rather you handle it, you can do the connecting for them using a single-use connect link — without ever needing their passwords.

How the connect link works

1. The owner creates their Kula account and, from their admin, mints a single-use connect link scoped to a permission level they choose.
2. They share that link with you.
3. In your AI assistant, Add custom connector and paste that link as the Remote MCP server URL (leave Advanced settings blank), then Add → Connect and follow the sign-in/approve prompts. Your assistant connects to their studio scoped to the link's permission level — no password of theirs changes hands.

The link is single-use and time-limited: once you've used it, it's spent, and it expires on its own if unused. The owner can revoke it at any time. This is the same secure front door the product uses everywhere — you never hold a long-lived secret, and the owner can cut access in one click.

Connecting the studio's data sources

With access in hand, connect the studio's sources the same way the owner would — each source's page has the steps:

• Stripe · Wix · Mindbody · Xero
• Meta · Google Analytics 4 · CSV & ClassPass

A few things worth doing well, since you're the one setting up:

• Start with the studio's spine — usually their booking platform (Mindbody or Wix) plus payments (Stripe). That alone unlocks most questions.
• Use the right keys. Where a provider offers a read-only or restricted key (Stripe, Wix, Meta), use it. The connector pages call out which.
• Kick off the import and let it run. A big studio takes 20–30 minutes to import. Set it going, then move on to the diagnostic prep.

Keep the owner's permission level sensible

When you connect, you're working at the permission level on the link. Operations is the right default — names visible, contact and payment details hidden. Only step up if a specific task needs it. See Permission levels.

Once the data's importing, get ready to facilitate the first diagnostic.
