What is Integration App MCP Server

Integration App MCP Server

Overview

This is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes tools powered by Integration App.

Managing Tools

This server uses Actions defined in an Integration App workspace as tools. To understand how this works and how to effectively manage tools for each application, please refer to the Using Tools guide.

Running the server

  1. Install node.js
  2. Configure some actions in your Integration App workspace
  3. Get Integration App token from your Workspace Settings page or generate using your Workspace Key and Secret (Authentication Guide).

You need to provide two environment variables to the server:

  • INTEGRATION_APP_TOKEN - token for accessing Integration App API
  • INTEGRATION_KEY - key of the integration you want to use tools for

This server exposes tools from one integration at a time. If you want to expose tools from multiple integrations, you can create multiple servers or modify the code to iterate over multiple integrations.

Here is an example of claude_desktop_config.json file with the server configured:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "integration-app-hubspot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@integration-app/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
         "INTEGRATION_APP_TOKEN": "<your-integration-app-token>",
         "INTEGRATION_KEY": "hubspot"
      }
    }
  }
}

Testing

To understand if everything works as expected, you can ask Claude what tools are available:

Frequently Asked Questions

What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications, providing a standardized way to connect AI models to different data sources and tools.

What are MCP Servers?

MCP Servers are lightweight programs that expose specific capabilities through the standardized Model Context Protocol. They act as bridges between LLMs like Claude and various data sources or services, allowing secure access to files, databases, APIs, and other resources.

How do MCP Servers work?

MCP Servers follow a client-server architecture where a host application (like Claude Desktop) connects to multiple servers. Each server provides specific functionality through standardized endpoints and protocols, enabling Claude to access data and perform actions through the standardized protocol.

Are MCP Servers secure?

Yes, MCP Servers are designed with security in mind. They run locally with explicit configuration and permissions, require user approval for actions, and include built-in security features to prevent unauthorized access and ensure data privacy.
