MCP Overview

The Esperto MCP connector lets you manage your assessments data from Claude / Cowork in natural language — no code required.

What it is

The MCP bridge is a small remote server that exposes the Esperto Assessments API as tools inside Claude. Instead of writing HTTP requests, you ask Claude to "list all groups" or "add this member to that group", and Claude calls the matching tool for you.

Claude / Cowork  ──HTTPS──▶  Esperto MCP bridge  ──OAuth2 Bearer──▶  Esperto API (/api/v1)

The bridge authenticates to the Esperto API using the Client Credentials grant (see Authentication) and forwards each call with a valid Bearer token. You never handle tokens yourself.

What you can do today

The connector currently covers the /members and /groups endpoint families — the same scopes opened for the API. That means listing, reading, creating and updating members; listing and creating groups; and assigning members to groups. The full list is on MCP Tools.

How it relates to the REST API

The MCP connector is a convenience layer on top of the REST API — same data, same permissions, same scopes. Anything the connector can do, the API can do too. Choose the connector when you want to work conversationally inside Claude; choose the REST API when you are building your own software.
