Connect via MCP
Connect a remote MCP client to Certyn with Auth0/OIDC sign-in and tenant-wide assistant tools.
Certyn exposes a remote MCP server over Streamable HTTP so external MCP clients can connect directly to your Certyn workspace.
Server URL
For Certyn Cloud, the MCP endpoint is:
https://api.certyn.io/api/mcp
The public manifest is available at:
https://certyn.io/server.json
Authentication
Certyn MCP uses your existing Certyn user login through Auth0/OIDC.
- Use a normal user sign-in flow when the MCP client prompts for authentication.
- MCP v1 does not support API keys.
- MCP v1 does not support demo tokens.
When an unauthenticated client hits the MCP endpoint, Certyn returns the OAuth protected-resource metadata needed for authorization server discovery.
Capability model
MCP v1 is tenant-wide and tool-only.
- One MCP connection can access any project or environment your user can already access.
- Tools accept
projectIdOrSlugandenvironmentKeyselectors when context matters. - MCP prompts and resources are not exposed in v1.
ask_certynis non-streaming in v1.
Supported tools
list_projectslist_environmentsask_certynlist_conversationsget_conversation
See MCP Tool Catalog for tool arguments and response shapes.
Typical setup flow
- Add the Certyn MCP server in your client using
https://api.certyn.io/api/mcporhttps://certyn.io/server.json. - Start the connection and complete the Auth0/OIDC login flow with your Certyn account.
- Call
list_projectsandlist_environmentsto discover accessible workspace context. - Use
ask_certynwith optionalprojectIdOrSlug,environmentKey,conversationId, and chat context fields.
Notes
- Authorization and access remain tenant-scoped and permission-scoped exactly like the Certyn dashboard.
- Conversation history tools only return tenant-owned conversations.
- For direct tool details, examples, and response payloads, use the MCP Tool Catalog.
