Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server
You can use our Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server to allow your AI application to interact with your Files.com site.
Giving AI controlled access to your Files.com site, enables your AI agent to interact with your site as if it were an extension of your team—without compromising security, auditability, or control.
Whether it's uploading, downloading, querying folders, or managing users, our MCP Server enables your AI to become a personal digital assistant for your Files.com site.
Model Context Protocol
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to Artificial Intelligence (AI) Large Language Models (LLMs). MCP provides a standardized way to connect AI models to different data sources and tools.
MCP Servers are lightweight programs that expose specific capabilities through the standardized Model Context Protocol.
Getting Started with Files.com MCP Server
Our MCP Server is Python based, which is the most popular implementation among the MCP community.
Install the Files.com MCP Server from our GitHub repository or by using the pip
Python package manager.
Refer to the documentation for your AI application to configure it to use the Files.com MCP Server.
Authentication
The Files.com MCP Server requires a Files.com API Key to authenticate and authorize the actions.
Access Permissions
The AI will only be able to perform the actions allowed by the API Key and its associated user account.
Using an API Key from a site admin account will allow the AI to perform administrator actions. Using an API Key from a regular, non-admin user account will only allow the AI to perform actions, and access folders, allowed by that user account.
