Connecting to an MCP server from an MCP client

Connect to a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server from an MCP client by creating an OAuth inbound integration and configuring the client with the server details.

With the Quickstart Server or after creating a server, you can complete the following steps to connect to a server from a client:

1. Create an OAuth inbound integration for an MCP client
2. Configure an MCP client to connect to an MCP server

The process to configure a client to connect to a server is dependent on the client used. For more information, refer to the documentation for your AI application and client.
