Coding agent

Apizee’s developer documentation exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that allows AI-powered editors and coding agents to query documentation natively.

Your MCP server URL is:

https://developer.apizee.com/apizee-docs/~gitbook/mcp

When connected to your editor, your assistant (Claude, Copilot, Cursor Agent, Windsurf AI) can retrieve documentation, search pages, and use documentation-aware tools without scraping or copy/pasting.

This guide walks you through steps per tool.

2. Go to Settings → MCP Servers.

3. Choose Global or Workspace configuration.

%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Linux:

~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

1. Add the server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apizee-docs": {
      "transport": "http",
      "url": "https://developer.apizee.com/apizee-docs/~gitbook/mcp"
    }
  }
}

1. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

Validation

Ask Claude:

“Connect to the apizee-docs MCP server and list its tools.”

Windsurf (Codeium IDE)

Validation

Open the AI assistant panel and type:

“Show my MCP servers.”

You should see apizee-docs.

Best Practices

• Your Apizee Developer Docs MCP endpoint is public and requires no authentication, making integration straightforward.

• If running behind a corporate firewall, ensure HTTPS access to:

  Copy

  developer.apizee.com

• If MCP tools do not appear, restart the IDE.
