GoCanvas MCP by usefulapi

Read GoCanvas forms, submissions, users, dispatches and reference data; create dispatches.

Live endpoint: https://gocanvas.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/gocanvas

Connect

• Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://gocanvas.usefulapi.io/mcp.
• Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http gocanvas https://gocanvas.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
• VS Code: Add to VS Code.
• Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gocanvas": {
      "url": "https://gocanvas.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 GoCanvas credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/gocanvas/

On first connect you'll paste the client ID and client secret of a GoCanvas OAuth application (create one as an administrator in your GoCanvas profile → API Settings; the secret is shown only once). The account needs API v3 access (Pro/Max plan or the API add-on).
