Details
From the project READMEFMX MCP by usefulapi
Use your FMX account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read-only access to buildings, equipment, inventory, resources, attachments and users in your tenant. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.
Live endpoint: https://fmx.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io
Connect
- Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste
https://fmx.usefulapi.io/mcp. - Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http fmx https://fmx.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run/mcpto log in. - VS Code: Add to VS Code.
- Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"fmx": {
"url": "https://fmx.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your FMX credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/fmx/
On first connect you provide your FMX tenant (the acme part of acme.gofmx.com), the API user email and the API user password of a dedicated API user. Create an API user type under Admin Settings → User Types, then create the user under Users. The server validates them and stores them per user. No keys go in config files.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
