MCP
Turn on the MCP surface so an AI assistant can work with your organization, and find the connection address.
The MCP tab lets an MCP-capable assistant work with your organization's pitches, stories and newsroom connections. It holds the switch that turns that on, the address an assistant connects to, and a control over self-registered clients. How to connect a particular assistant, and what it can do, is in Agents.
Who can use it
Owners and admins (mcp:manage). The tab is missing for Members and Viewers.
Turn MCP on
- Open MCP.
- Under MCP surface, turn on Enable MCP for this organization.
You see MCP enabled. While the switch is off, every MCP call is rejected, whatever credential it carries. Turning it off shows MCP disabled.
Connect an assistant
Once MCP is enabled, Connecting a client appears with what an assistant needs:
- Connection URL: the address of your organization's endpoint, with a copy button. Most MCP clients take this in their own connector screen and sign you in when prompted: no configuration file or API key is needed.
- Client configuration, for a client with no browser: a configuration snippet for a command-line tool, script or unattended job that cannot sign in interactively. Paste it into the client's configuration and replace the placeholder with a real API key. The snippet carries a placeholder only: keys are shown once when created, so this page cannot show yours.
- Getting an API key points to Settings → API keys, where you create a service key for the whole organization. It is a link for owners and admins. See API keys.
Block self-registered clients
A self-registered client is one that registered itself with no operator involved. Turn on Block self-registered clients from holding a token to refuse them: such a client can then never hold a working token for your organization, a token already issued stops working on its next use, and a consent request from one is refused. You see Self-registered clients blocked; turning it off shows Self-registered clients allowed.
This setting is independent of the MCP surface switch, and an API key is never affected by it.
See which applications are connected
If you are an owner, the tab links to Connected apps, which lists every application holding standing access, including the ones that connected over MCP. See Connected apps.
