# Chili Piper (MCP)

> Connect AI tools to Chili Piper via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to manage users, routing rules, distributions, and meetings

## 🚀 Quickstart

Connect to the Chili Piper MCP server with Nango and call MCP tools in minutes. Chili Piper MCP uses OAuth 2.0 with **dynamic client registration**, so no app registration is required — just an Admin account on a paid Chili Piper plan.

**1. Create the integration**

In Nango ([free signup](https://app.nango.dev)), go to [Integrations](https://app.nango.dev/dev/integrations) -> *Configure New Integration* -> *Chili Piper (MCP)*.

**2. Authorize Chili Piper**

Go to [Connections](https://app.nango.dev/dev/connections) -> *Add Test Connection* -> *Authorize*, then log in to Chili Piper as an Admin. Later, you'll let your users do the same directly from your app.

**3. Call a Chili Piper MCP tool**

Make your first MCP request (initialize handshake). Replace the placeholders below with your [API key](https://app.nango.dev/dev/environment-settings), [integration ID](https://app.nango.dev/dev/integrations), and [connection ID](https://app.nango.dev/dev/connections):

> [tab] cURL
>
> ```bash theme={null}
> curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/" \
>   -X POST \
>   -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-API-KEY>" \
>   -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
>   -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>" \
>   -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
>   -d '{
>     "jsonrpc": "2.0",
>     "id": 1,
>     "method": "initialize",
>     "params": {
>         "protocolVersion": "2024-11-05",
>         "capabilities": {},
>         "clientInfo": {
>             "name": "nango-client",
>             "version": "1.0.0"
>         }
>     }
> }'
> ```

> [tab] Node
>
> Install Nango's backend SDK with `npm i @nangohq/node`. Then run:
>
> ```typescript theme={null}
> import { Nango } from '@nangohq/node';
>
> const nango = new Nango({ secretKey: '<NANGO-API-KEY>' });
>
> const res = await nango.post({
>     endpoint: '/',
>     providerConfigKey: '<INTEGRATION-ID>',
>     connectionId: '<CONNECTION-ID>',
>     body: {
>         jsonrpc: '2.0',
>         id: 1,
>         method: 'initialize',
>         params: {
>             protocolVersion: '2024-11-05',
>             capabilities: {},
>             clientInfo: {
>                 name: 'nango-client',
>                 version: '1.0.0'
>             }
>         }
>     }
> });
>
> console.log(res.data);
> ```

✅ You're connected! Check the [Logs](https://app.nango.dev/dev/logs) tab in Nango to inspect requests.

**4. Implement Nango in your app**

Follow our [Auth implementation guide](https://nango.dev/docs/guides/primitives/auth.md) to integrate Nango in your app.

## 📚 Chili Piper (MCP) guides

Nango uses **dynamic client registration** with Chili Piper's MCP OAuth server. You do not need to register an application — just create the integration in Nango and authorize with an Admin account on a paid Chili Piper plan.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Chili Piper's MCP server exposes tools that can modify production data (creating users, adjusting distributions, cancelling meetings, deleting rules). Review each tool call before letting it run against a production account.
>
> For automation or CI use cases, or to call Chili Piper's REST endpoints directly instead of through MCP, see the [Chili Piper](https://nango.dev/docs/api-integrations/chili-piper.md) integration, which authenticates with an API key instead.
