I have a Nikon D750 with built-in Wi‑Fi. It can be controlled from a smartphone for shooting, viewing, and downloading photos. Can I connect the camera to a Mac over Wi‑Fi and have new photos automatically appear in Capture One? Nikon ViewNX did not work for me.

It is possible in Lightroom, but not directly. The same method should also work for Capture One.
I use qDslrDashboard to automatically download all pictures taken with the camera. Then Lightroom is configured to monitor and auto-import images from the download folder. I can control the camera via the computer, or shoot with the camera directly, and have images automatically show up in Lightroom. Capture One should also have the ability to monitor and auto-import from a folder.
qDslrDashboard works only for cameras with WLAN, which includes most Nikon, Canon and Sony cameras. It is free for Windows, Linux, and Mac. For iOS and Android, it costs 10€, but has more functionality than the Nikon app.

Not directly in Capture One, based on the answers provided. A workable setup is to use separate software to receive the Nikon’s Wi‑Fi transfers, then have Capture One watch that folder and auto-import new files.
One suggested option is qDslrDashboard, which can connect to many Wi‑Fi-enabled Nikon cameras, download each shot automatically, and also allow computer control. Capture One can then monitor that download folder so images appear as they arrive.
Another option is Nikon’s own software such as ViewNX, if you can get it working, since that may be the simplest vendor-supported route.
There’s also a general Capture One approach for unsupported cameras: use a compatible external capture utility and let Capture One ingest from the resulting folder rather than expecting native wireless tethering.
So the practical answer is: yes, you may be able to achieve this workflow over Wi‑Fi, but usually through intermediary software, not direct native Wi‑Fi tethering from the D750 into Capture One.
