Glide API MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server for interacting with the Glide API (v1 & v2).

Features

Support for both Glide API v1 and v2
Secure API key handling through environment variables
Type-safe TypeScript implementation
Comprehensive error handling

Available Tools

set_api_version: Configure API version and authentication
get_app: Get app information
get_tables: List app tables
get_table_rows: Get table data
add_table_row: Add new row
update_table_row: Update existing row

Secure Setup

1. Environment Variables

The server supports secure configuration through environment variables in the MCP settings file. Add your API credentials to the MCP settings file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "glide-api": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["path/to/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "GLIDE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here",
        "GLIDE_API_VERSION": "v2"  // or "v1" for v1 API
      }
    }
  }
}

This approach keeps your API key secure by:

Storing it in a configuration file rather than in code
Keeping it out of version control
Making it easy to update without modifying code

2. Runtime Configuration

While environment variables are the recommended way to configure the server, you can also set or override the API version and key at runtime using the set_api_version tool:

use_mcp_tool({
  server_name: "glide-api",
  tool_name: "set_api_version",
  arguments: {
    version: "v2",
    apiKey: "your-api-key"
  }
});

Note: The runtime configuration will override any environment variables for the current session.

3. Security Best Practices

Never commit API keys to version control
Use environment variables in the MCP settings file
Regularly rotate your API keys
Set appropriate file permissions on the settings file

Development

Install dependencies:

npm install

Build the server:

npm run build

For development with auto-rebuild:

npm run watch

Usage Examples

Get app information:

use_mcp_tool({
  server_name: "glide-api",
  tool_name: "get_app",
  arguments: {
    appId: "your-app-id"
  }
});

Add a row to a table:

use_mcp_tool({
  server_name: "glide-api",
  tool_name: "add_table_row",
  arguments: {
    appId: "your-app-id",
    tableId: "your-table-id",
    values: {
      column1: "value1",
      column2: "value2"
    }
  }
});

How are these scores calculated?

remote-capable server

The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.

Tools

Facilitates secure and type-safe interactions with both v1 and v2 of the Glide API, allowing users to manage app data and perform CRUD operations on tables via a Model Context Protocol interface.
