Manual client registration

Connect to an MCP connector in Connect Hub by providing OAuth 2.1 credentials from the third-party provider, for connectors such as GitHub and Figma that require a registered OAuth application.

Before you begin

• Note the Client ID and Client secret generated for your OAuth application. You must provide these values during the connection setup.
• Some connectors may require additional configurations. See Additional connector configurations for the list of supported connectors that require additional configurations. If your connector is listed, perform the required configurations before registering the client manually.
• Role required: wdf_builder or admin.

About this task

Some MCP connectors require you to manually supply OAuth 2.1 credentials instead of using an automatic authorization redirect. Connect Hub displays the label Manual setup may be required next to connectors that use this method.

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > Workflow Data Fabric > Connect Hub.
2. Click Create and select Model Context Protocol.
   The list of all available MCP connectors is displayed.

   

3. Locate the connector you want to use.
   • To search for a connector by name, enter the connector or system name in the Search system or connector field.
   • To filter by system, select System, select one or more systems from the list, and then select Apply.
   • To change the sort order, select Sort by and choose the preferred option.
4. Select the connector card for the system you want to connect.
   A details panel opens showing the connector description, system, type, endpoint URL, and the label Manual setup may be required.

   

5. Select Connect.
   The Authentication dialog opens for the selected connector. The dialog shows the authentication method as OAuth 2.1 and includes fields for authentication..
6. On the form, fill these values.

   Field	Description
   Client ID	Client ID from your OAuth application in the third-party system.
   Client secret	Client secret from your OAuth application in the third-party system.
   Authorization scopes	Optional OAuth scopes as a comma-separated list.

   Note:

   Refer to the third-party system's OAuth documentation for the list of supported scopes. For example, the Figma connector uses the scope mcp:connect. If no scopes are required, leave the field empty.
7. Select Connect.

   

   Connect Hub processes the OAuth credentials and creates the connection record. The Edit MCP Connector page is displayed with the connection record details. A Connected label is displayed next to the connection name when the connector is ready for use.

Result

The MCP connector is connected to Connect Hub using the OAuth 2.1 credentials you provided. The connector is available for use in AI agent configurations and automation flows.
