API gateway and MCP server for integrations

API 200 gives you a single gateway layer for third-party APIs. It lets you import endpoints from OpenAPI or Postman, then add caching, retries, mocks, auth, transformations, and custom headers around them. It also includes monitoring and incident detection, plus an MCP server so agent clients can reach your API setup through a standard tool connection.

MCP

To configure the API200 MCP server with Claude Desktop (or any other client):

  1. Open Claude Desktop settings
  2. Navigate to Developer settings
  3. Add a new custom tool with the following configuration (can be found on the Credentials tab):
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "api200": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "api200-mcp@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "USER_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}
