Frequently asked questions

Can ChatGPT create an eLearning course?

Yes. With the Skillsail plugin connected, ChatGPT can create complete eLearning modules with slides, quiz questions, and interactive activities. Skillsail handles structure, storage, and export while you direct the content in the conversation.

Can ChatGPT export SCORM files?

Not on its own. Connected to Skillsail, ChatGPT can export your module as SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, xAPI, cmi5, or HTML5 and hand you a download link that works with any major LMS.

How do I connect Skillsail to ChatGPT?

Add Skillsail as a custom connector: turn on developer mode in ChatGPT's connector settings, enter the Skillsail address, and sign in with your Skillsail account. The exact menu location varies by ChatGPT version and plan, and workspace administrators control whether custom connectors are allowed. The setup guide in our documentation walks through each step.

Do I need a Skillsail account?

Yes. The plugin works inside your Skillsail organization, so every module is stored in your workspace and stays available in the web app, where you can keep editing and publishing it.

Is my content secure?

Skillsail only accesses the organization you signed into, transfers are encrypted, and Skillsail never uses your content to train AI models. Your conversation with ChatGPT itself is governed by OpenAI's data controls.

What is the difference between the plugin and MCP?

The Skillsail plugin is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard for connecting AI assistants to tools. ChatGPT packages it as a plugin, and other MCP clients can connect to the same server. The technical details are in our MCP documentation.
