What is OpenAPI MCP Server?

This service acts as a stateless proxy between MCP clients and OpenAPI-documented APIs. It requires basic endpoint configuration, which is passed as a base64url-encoded JSON object in the URL.

How to use OpenAPI MCP Server?

To use the server, you need to create a configuration payload containing the OpenAPI schema URL and the API base URL. This payload is then converted to a base64url-encoded string and appended to the server's URL. The resulting URL can then be used with various tools that support MCP servers.

FAQ from OpenAPI MCP Server

What is an MCP server?

MCP stands for Machine Communication Protocol. It's a protocol that allows different tools and services to communicate with each other in a standardized way.

How do I find the OpenAPI schema URL?

The OpenAPI schema URL is typically provided by the API provider. It's a URL that points to a JSON or YAML file that describes the API's structure and functionality.

Can I use this server with any OpenAPI-documented API?

Yes, as long as the API adheres to the OpenAPI specification and the server can access the schema URL.

Is the hosted service reliable?

The hosted service is provided on a best-effort basis and may not be suitable for production environments. For critical applications, consider deploying your own instance of the server.
