Creating configurations

A configuration defines how Boomi Connect connects to a specific connector on behalf of your users. Each configuration is associated with an identity provider and generates a unique MCP server URL, client ID, and client secret that you publish to your AI assistant.

To create a new configuration:

  1. On the Connect Home tab, select Create Config and choose the connector you want to create a configuration for. You can search for a connector or scroll through the alphabetical list.

  2. In the Create Config screen, enter the required information. Each connector has a different set of information needed. The following is a selection of some of the fields you may encounter:

    • Config Name
    • Identity Provider — Select an identity provider that has been defined for your organization.
    • Account Identifier
      • Account Name
      • App ID
      • Host Name
      • Tenant Domain
    • Authentication Management
      • Access Token
      • API Key
      • Username & Password
      • OAuth Client ID, Client Secret, and Scopes

  3. The configuration is enabled by default. If you want to disable it, toggle the Enabled switch.

  4. In the Manage Tools section, you see a list of tools defined for this connector. By default, all tools are enabled. You can disable any tool by toggling its Enabled switch.

  5. Click Save to create the configuration.

  6. A confirmation page appears with the following information:

    • MCP URL — The URL of the MCP server registered with the MCP Registry.
    • Client ID
    • Client Secret — Store the client secret safely. It will not be visible when you return to the configuration to view its details.
note

You will need this information when publishing the MCP server to your AI assistant.

  1. Click Done to finish creating the configuration.

  2. (Optional) You can create additional configurations for the same connector by repeating the previous steps. You may want to use a different tenant or hostname, or a different set of enabled tools for a different user group as defined by a different identity provider (IDP) role.
