MCP: Connect an AI Client

ContentStudio’s MCP endpoint is:

https://mcp.contentstudio.io/mcp

Use this endpoint in every MCP client.

Authentication

Use OAuth where the client supports it. Claude and ChatGPT connect with OAuth. Where OAuth is not supported, use api_key in the query parameter or x-api-key in the header. Never place an API key in source control, logs, or shared configuration.

Connect with OAuth

Add the endpoint in your MCP client’s custom connector or remote-server settings:

https://mcp.contentstudio.io/mcp

Complete the sign-in in the browser window the client opens. In ChatGPT, go to Plugins, browse ContentStudio, click Install Plugin, and log in to your ContentStudio account.

Connect with an API key

Where OAuth is not supported, pass your ContentStudio API key in the URL:

https://mcp.contentstudio.io/mcp?api_key=<your-api-key>

Or send it in a request header:

x-api-key: <your-api-key>

To create or copy a key, open the main API module in ContentStudio and select the API tab. Store it in the client’s protected configuration.

Safe first interaction

After connection, begin with a read-only request such as listing ContentStudio workspaces or connected accounts. Confirm the workspace before permitting any create, schedule, approve, update, or delete action.

Key lifecycle and security

• Prefer OAuth for supported clients.

• Regenerating a key requires updating every integration that depends on it.

• Use distinct keys or access configurations for separate environments when supported by your operating model.

• Review and remove unused client configurations.

• Restrict write-capable integrations to authorized users and systems.
