Managing MCP servers

Use Organizational Catalog to add and manage MCP servers. You can examine the tools they expose, review their scan and risk information, and assign servers to profiles.

Finding an MCP server

In the administrator interface, on the left navigation, click Organizational Catalog. The Server Catalog page opens displaying a card for each server.
To find a specific server, use the controls available above the cards:
1. Search: Type the server name in the search field. For example, type Gmail to find Gmail server cards.
2. Sort: Change the order of the displayed cards.
3. Filter: Narrow the displayed server cards.
To view servers by their approval status, select All, Approved, Pending, or Rejected.
Review the server cards. A card can display the server’s name, capability count, risk and scan information, and available actions.

Adding an MCP server

Use Add MCP from Connector to create an MCP server from a Boomi Connect connector. Use Add custom MCP when you have the connection information for an MCP server.

To add an MCP server from a connector:

On the Server Catalog page, click Add MCP from Connector.
On Select a Connector, search for a connector or browse the connector cards. Each card identifies a connector and shows its authentication type.
Click Create MCP Server on the connector card.
Complete the requested configuration. For some connectors, such as Gmail, you must provide a name, OAuth Client ID, and OAuth Client Secret.

To add a custom MCP server:

On the Server Catalog page, click Add custom MCP.
Type Server name and Server URL, and review the Transport field.
If the connection requires more information, review the Metadata, Headers, or Static OAuth tabs, and provide the applicable values.
Click Add.

The server card shows the next available actions according to its connection or scan state.

Scanning MCP servers

Use Connect & scan on a server card to inspect the server’s capabilities. The Server Catalog page also provides a catalog-wide Scan remote servers option.

Locate the server on the Server Catalog page.
Click Connect & scan on the server card, when available. If the card displays Authorize in new tab, complete the authorization flow so scanning can continue.
Review the scan progress, capability count, and risk information. Some cards also display Approve or Reject actions.

Managing existing MCP servers

To manage an existing server, click the three-dot menu on its top right. Then, select an available action:

Edit Server Details: In the Edit custom MCP dialog box, review the server details and the Metadata, Headers, and Static OAuth tabs.
Assign to Profiles: Open the profile list and select one or more existing profiles.
Re-scan: Restart the scan for the server.
Reset to Pending: Return the server to a pending state.

For an analyzed custom MCP server, you must delete the server and add it again to change its configuration.

Reviewing MCP tools and risk information

Each MCP server exposes tools that an AI client can invoke. Review a tool’s details before making it available through a profile.

On the Server Catalog page, select the server you want to inspect.
In the server's tool list, select a tool to view its description, parameters, operation classification, and risk information.

The tool view displays operation types, such as Read-only, Write, Execute, and Destructive. It also displays risk levels, such as Low, Medium, High, and Critical. For example, retrieving a Gmail email draft is a read-only operation, while deleting a draft is a destructive operation.

These classifications describe the tool's operation and risk. Use the profile's tool controls to select which tools end-users can access.

Configuring profile-based tool access

Use profiles to determine which MCP servers and tools end-users can access. A profile groups selected servers and tools and associates them with users or groups. The Profiles page shows the default profile and other defined profiles, along with their servers and membership information.

Assigning servers and users to a profile

In the administrator interface, click Profiles from the left navigation.
Open the profile you want to manage and click Servers.
Click Add Server. Then, choose a server from the list, and complete the addition. Alternatively, open a server's three-dot menu in Server Catalog and select Assign to Profiles.
Use Add Users or Add Groups to manage profile membership, where applicable.
Review the profile's Servers, Users, and Groups views to check the configuration.

For a profile labeled auto install, the Add Servers page states that added servers appear for assigned end-users when they connect. Those end-users might still need to authorize the application.

Selecting tools available through a profile

Open the profile and select the server under Servers.
Click Edit tools to open its tool list.
Click Edit and use the available tool toggles to enable or disable individual tools.
Click Save to keep the selections.

Review a tool's description and risk details before changing its selection. You can also inspect an end-user’s assigned profiles in Users & Groups.
