🚀 Quickstart

Connect to the Attentive MCP server with Nango and call MCP tools in minutes. Attentive MCP uses OAuth 2.0 with dynamic client registration, so no app registration is required.
1

Create the integration

In Nango (free signup), go to Integrations → Configure New Integration → Attentive (MCP).
2

Authorize Attentive

Go to Connections → Add Test Connection → Authorize, then log in to your Attentive account. Later, you’ll let your users do the same directly from your app.
3

Call the Attentive MCP API

Make your first MCP request (initialize handshake). Replace the placeholders below with your Environment API key, integration ID, and connection ID:
✅ You’re connected! Check the Logs tab in Nango to inspect requests.
4

Implement Nango in your app

Follow our Auth implementation guide to integrate Nango in your app.

📚 Attentive (MCP) guides

Nango uses dynamic client registration with Attentive’s MCP OAuth server. You do not need to register an MCP application — just create the integration in Nango and authorize with your Attentive account. Official resources: Attentive MCP server

API gotchas

  • Attentive’s MCP server is read-only unless the MCP URL includes readOnly=false. Nango adds it for agent sessions, so agents get Attentive’s write tools as well. For your own proxy calls, use /mcp without the parameter to stay read-only.
  • Tools mirror the connected user’s Attentive permissions: if the user can’t do something in the Attentive UI, the MCP server won’t do it either.
  • The Attentive MCP server is in beta.
