The MCP Server supports two authentication methods depending on how your AI agent connects.

OAuth 2.1

For AI desktop applications like Claude Desktop or Cursor, the MCP Server supports OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. The application opens a browser window where you log in with your Nekt credentials (or SSO), select which token to use, and the app receives access automatically. No manual token copying is needed. To connect, point your AI application to your MCP server URL using the HTTP Streamable transport protocol.

Bearer Token

For automation platforms like N8N, Make, or custom integrations, you can use a bearer token directly. Copy the token from the Nekt platform and paste it into your tool’s configuration.
Tokens created during the OAuth flow use the creating user’s permissions by default. Tokens created manually can be scoped to specific tables for fine-grained access control.
