Get Server

GEThttps://api.confident-ai.com/v2/mcp-servers/{mcpServerId}

Retrieves an MCP server by id, with its full configuration and the tools its last successful connection discovered. The stored OAuth client secret is not returned: authConfig.clientSecretPreview masks it instead.

Headers

  • CONFIDENT_API_KEYstringRequired

    The API key of your Confident AI project.

Path parameters

  • mcpServerIdstringRequired

    The id of the MCP server.

Response

Get Server succeeded.

  • successboolean

    Indicates if the request was successful.

  • dataobject

    An MCP server registered with your project: how Confident AI reaches it, how it authenticates, and the tools the last connection found. The stored OAuth client secret is never returned — authConfig.clientSecretPreview masks it.

    Show 12 propertiesHide 12 properties
    • idstring

      The id of the MCP server, generated by Confident AI.

    • namestring

      The name of the MCP server.

    • descriptionstring | null

      What the MCP server is for.

    • transportenum

      How Confident AI reaches the server. HTTP requires url and is the only transport that authenticates; STDIO requires command and launches the server as a local process.

      Show 2 enum valuesHide 2 enum values
      • STDIO
      • HTTP
    • connectedboolean

      Whether the last connection attempt succeeded. Set by the connect route, and reset to false by any update.

    • urlstring | null

      The URL of the server. Only set when transport is HTTP.

    • headersobject | null

      The static headers sent with every request, returned as stored. Only set when authType is HEADERS.

    • authTypeenum

      How Confident AI authenticates to the server. HEADERS sends the static headers map, OAUTH_CLIENT_CREDENTIALS and AZURE_AD fetch a token from authConfig before every call. HTTP transport only; a STDIO server is always HEADERS.

      Show 3 enum valuesHide 3 enum values
      • HEADERS
      • OAUTH_CLIENT_CREDENTIALS
      • AZURE_AD
    • authConfigobject | null

      The stored credentials with the secret removed: clientSecret never leaves Confident AI, and a masked clientSecretPreview stands in for it.

      Show 4 propertiesHide 4 properties
      • tenantIdstring

        The Azure AD directory (tenant) id, as stored.

      • clientIdstring

        The OAuth client id, as stored.

      • scopestring

        The OAuth scope requested, as stored.

      • clientSecretPreviewstring

        A mask of the stored OAuth client secret — bullets followed by its last six characters — so you can tell which secret is stored without reading it. This is not a credential and sending it back sets nothing: to leave the stored secret alone omit clientSecret from your update, and to change it send the new secret in clientSecret.

    • commandstring | null

      The command that launches the server. Only set when transport is STDIO.

    • argslist of strings

      The arguments passed to command. Empty unless transport is STDIO.

    • availableToolslist of objects | null

      Show 4 propertiesHide 4 properties
      • namestring

        The name of the tool, as the server reports it.

      • descriptionstring | null

        What the tool does, or null when the server describes it.

      • inputSchemaobject

        The JSON Schema describing the tool's arguments.

      • annotationsobject | null

  • deprecatedboolean

    Indicates if this endpoint is deprecated.
