MCP

The Jamf Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enables AI-powered code editors like Cursor and Windsurf, plus general-purpose tools like Claude Desktop, to interact with Jamf developer documentation.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI applications to securely access external data sources and tools. The Jamf MCP server provides AI agents with:

• Documentation search capabilities
• Code generation assistance for Jamf API integrations

Jamf MCP Server Setup

Jamf hosts a remote MCP server at https://developer.jamf.com/mcp. Configure your AI development tools to connect to this server. If your APIs require authentication, you can pass in headers via query parameters or however headers are configured in your MCP client.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jamf": {
      "url": "https://developer.jamf.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Testing Your MCP Setup

Once configured, you can test your MCP server connection:

1. Open your AI editor (Cursor, Windsurf, etc.)
2. Start a new chat with the AI assistant
3. Ask about Jamf APIs - try questions like:
   • "How do I [common use case]?"
   • "Show me an example of [API functionality]"
   • "Create a [integration type] using Jamf [API Functionality]"

The AI should now have access to Jamf documentation through the MCP server.
