MCP

The netsapiens-api Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enables AI-powered code editors like Cursor and Windsurf, plus general-purpose tools like Claude Desktop, to interact directly with your netsapiens-api API and documentation.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI applications to securely access external data sources and tools. The netsapiens-api MCP server provides AI agents with:

  • Direct API access to netsapiens-api functionality
  • Documentation search capabilities
  • Real-time data from your netsapiens-api account
  • Code generation assistance for netsapiens-api integrations

netsapiens-api MCP Server Setup

netsapiens-api hosts a remote MCP server at https://docs.ns-api.com/mcp. Configure your AI development tools to connect to this server. If your APIs require authentication, you can pass in headers via query parameters or however headers are configured in your MCP client. you can also configure a specific version via https://docs.ns-api.com/mcp?branch=45.0

Add to~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "netsapiens-api": {
      "url": "https://docs.ns-api.com/mcp?branch=45.0"
    }
  }
}

Testing Your MCP Setup

Once configured, you can test your MCP server connection:

  1. Open your AI editor (Cursor, Windsurf, etc.)
  2. Start a new chat with the AI assistant
  3. Ask about netsapiens-api - try questions like:
    • "How do I [common use case]?"
    • "Show me an example of [API functionality]"
    • "Create a [integration type] using netsapiens-api"

The AI should now have access to your netsapiens-api account data and documentation through the MCP server.
