a. Using environment variables directly:
docker run -e ENDPOINT=your_endpoint -e SUMO_API_ID=your_api_id -e SUMO_API_KEY=your_api_key mcp/sumologicb. Using a .env file:
docker run --env-file .env mcp/sumologicNote: Make sure your .env file contains the required environment variables:
ENDPOINT=your_endpoint SUMO_API_ID=your_api_id SUMO_API_KEY=your_api_key
Usage
The server exposes a search-sumologic tool that accepts the following parameters:
query(required): The Sumo Logic search queryfrom(optional): Start time in ISO 8601 formatto(optional): End time in ISO 8601 format
Example query:
const query = '_index={index} | json auto | fields log_identifier';
const results = await search(sumoClient, query, {
from: '2024-02-23T00:00:00Z',
to: '2024-02-24T00:00:00Z',
});

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.
