Turn a ChatGPT conversation into a real, published MiniUp app.
- Connect MiniUp from ChatGPT's Apps directory
- Start from an uploaded file, pasted HTML, or an approved hosted dataset
- Build dashboards, maps, reports, portals, and business apps in plain language
- Publish a shareable result that you can keep managing from MiniUp
MiniUp is for people who like building in chat but still need a usable result. Describe the outcome you want, let ChatGPT understand the available content and data, then publish the finished app to your MiniUp account.
OpenAI now calls connected tools apps in ChatGPT. If MiniUp is available for your account, you can find it in Settings → Apps, connect it once, and use it whenever you want to build, publish, or update a MiniUp app.
How to find and connect MiniUp in ChatGPT
These steps are written for everyday users. You do not need to know anything about APIs or developer tools.
Open ChatGPT Settings
In ChatGPT, open your profile menu and go to Settings → Apps.
Find MiniUp
Browse the Apps directory and look for MiniUp. If your workspace is managed, an admin may need to enable it first.
Click Connect
Sign in to MiniUp if prompted, approve access, and finish the connection flow.
Use it in chat
Start a chat, then add MiniUp from the + menu and More, or use an @ mention if your ChatGPT interface shows apps that way.
Build from new uploads or data you already host
MiniUp gives ChatGPT enough approved context to create useful apps instead of guessing at fields, metrics, or maps.
Published pages and reports
Paste HTML or describe a report, then publish a polished MiniUp page with a shareable URL.
Dashboards from uploaded files
Upload tabular data and ask for useful KPIs, filters, charts, drill-downs, and paged tables.
Maps and data portals
Turn supported geospatial files or hosted spatial datasets into interactive maps and public data experiences.
Apps from your Data Catalog
Let ChatGPT inspect eligible Table APIs, Parquet, GeoParquet, and map layers that you already own on MiniUp.
Multi-dataset apps
Use an approved Dataset Bundle to give ChatGPT clear roles and context for multiple hosted datasets.
Data-backed business apps
Create directories, catalogs, records tools, and lightweight workflows backed by MiniUp Table APIs.
Prompts you can actually use
Focus on the audience and outcome. MiniUp and ChatGPT can choose the appropriate publishing and data workflow.
Use the uploaded file to build and publish a professional MiniUp app.
Make it useful, polished, and easy to understand.
If it is geospatial, make it a map app.
If it is tabular, make it a dashboard.
Publish it and show me the final URLs.Show me the MiniUp datasets available for app creation.
Inspect the most relevant dataset before building.
Create a useful dashboard with appropriate KPIs, filters, charts, and a detail table.
Publish it and explain which dataset it uses.Inspect my approved MiniUp Dataset Bundles.
Use the best matching bundle to build a clear operations portal.
Include an overview, useful filters, linked detail views, and a map when the data supports it.
Do not invent relationships that are not clear from the data.Turn the uploaded geospatial file into a polished interactive map app on MiniUp.
Add useful filters, a clear legend, summary information, and a details view.
Publish it and show me the final page and data links.Move beyond a one-off chat demo
The goal is not just generated code. It is a useful app connected to the right content and data.
You get an idea, but still have to assemble the finished product.
- The page may rely on a browser file picker.
- Uploaded data may only exist inside the conversation.
- Relative file paths may break after deployment.
- You still need to host and manage the site yourself.
You get a published app that can use approved MiniUp-hosted data.
- Uploaded files can become hosted data for the final app.
- Existing datasets can be inspected before the app is designed.
- Dataset Bundles make multi-dataset app context explicit.
- Published URLs are ready to open and share.
- You can keep managing the app and its access later from MiniUp.
