Arlet makes Netlify's official MCP server available from the AI client you already use. Signing in completes the connection.

The AI can create, configure and deploy projects and manage environment variables, forms, access controls and extensions. The available tools are those provided by Netlify's official server, split into reader and updater tools.

How to connect Netlify to Gemini Enterprise

  1. 1

    In the Arlet dashboard, open Integrations → Add an integration and choose Netlify. Sign in with Link Netlify, name the connection and click Create.

  2. 2

    Sign in to Gemini Enterprise with your organization Google account and open the gear icon at the bottom left → Connectors → Add MCP Server.

  3. 3

    In the MCP info tab, enter https://mcp.arlet.dev/mcp/ as the Server URL and "Arlet" as the Name. In the Auth tab, enter the OAuth settings from the Arlet docs (Authorization URL / Token URL / Client ID / Client Secret / Scopes) and click Add.

  4. 4

    In the connector list on the chat screen, click Connect on Arlet, sign in with Google and authorize. Arlet can then be enabled with the toggle.

Adding custom connectors (MCP) requires a Gemini Enterprise subscription and is not available in the consumer Gemini app. See the docs for the values to enter in the Auth tab.
