🔖 Tag Management - Create, update, and delete tags in your workspace - List and retrieve available tags with advanced filtering options - Apply or remove tags from assets (recipes and connections) - Supports batch operations for multiple assets and tags - Filter tags by title, description, author, and usage - Sort tags by various criteria (title, usage count, etc.) - Customize tag appearance with color options
🚀 Getting Started 2. Installation
npm install
# or
yarn install
- Build the Server
npm run build
-
Adding to Cursor This project is designed to be used as an MCP server in Cursor. Here's how to set it up:
-
Open Cursor
- Go to Cursor Settings > Features > MCP
- Click + Add New MCP Server
- Fill out the form:
- Name: Workato MCP Server
- Type: stdio
- Command: node /path/to/your/project/dist/server.js
- Environment Variables:
- Click "Add Environment Variable"
- Name: WORKATO_API_TOKEN
- Value: your_token_here
📘 Pro Tip: Use the full path to your project's built server.js file.
Alternative Configuration:
You can also configure the MCP server using a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project:
{
"mcpServers": {
"workato-tools": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/your/project/dist/server.js"],
"env": {
"WORKATO_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
}
}
}
}
Using with Claude Desktop: If you're using Claude Desktop instead of Cursor, you can configure the MCP server by editing the Claude desktop configuration:
-
Open or create the configuration file:
bash # On macOS ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json # On Windows %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json # On Linux ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json -
Add your MCP server configuration:
json { "mcp_servers": { "workato-tools": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/your/project/dist/server.js"], "env": { "WORKATO_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here" } } } } -
Save the file and restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect
This method allows you to: - Version control your MCP configuration - Include environment variables directly in the config - Share the same configuration across team members (excluding sensitive values) - Automatically load the server when opening the project in Cursor
