MCP servers
Connect Model Context Protocol servers to extend your bot with external tools, APIs, or knowledge. Configure labels, approvals, allowed tools, and headers per server.
- MCP access is gated by plan: Pro (1 server), Advanced (3), Enterprise (unlimited).
- Limits apply per bot; upgrade to increase available slots.
- Open a bot workspace → Tools tab.
- Scroll to MCP servers and click Add.
- Enter Server label (display name) and Server URL.
- Choose Require approval: Always, Never, or If required.
- Optionally add Allowed tools (whitelist) and headers (key/value).
- Save changes.
- Server label: human-readable name.
- Server URL: MCP endpoint.
- Require approval: controls if tool calls need approval (Always/Never/If required).
- Allowed tools: optional whitelist of tool IDs.
- Headers: custom headers sent to the server.
- If you hit the server limit, upgrade your plan or remove an existing server.
- Use allowed tools to restrict the MCP surface area for security.
- Ensure headers are correct (e.g., Authorization) and avoid adding empty entries.
