# AI CTRL MCP Integration Configuration

An MCP server connection in AI CTRL lets the platform connect to outside tools and data sources, like internal databases or business systems, using a shared, standard method instead of custom-built integrations for each one. MCP connections can pull real information or trigger actions in other systems. Administrators can configure MCP servers directly in the Admin Panel.

#### Prerequisites

- **Role:** AI CTRL Administrator
- **Open WebUI Version:** v0.9.6 or later
- **MCP Server:** A fully configured MCP server on the platform you are connecting to. When configuring the MCP server use https://your.domain.com/oauth/clients/mcp:mcp-tool/callback for the OIDC callback URL. (EG https://ai.expedient.cloud/oauth/clients/mcp:ms365/callback)

#### Step 1: Add the MCP Tool Server

1. Log in to AI CTRL and go to **Admin Panel** → **Settings** → **Integrations**
2. Click **+** to add a new connection
3. Fill in the following fields:

| **Field** | **Value** |
| --- | --- |
| **Type** | MCP Streamable HTTP* |
| **Name** | Ex: MCP Tool |
| **ID** | Ex: mcp-tool (Use this ID in the callback URL) |
| **Description** | Describe the MCP source |
| **URL** | Ex: `[https://mcp.yourservice.com/ `](https://mcp.yourservice.com/%20%60) |
| **Auth** | OAuth 2.1 |

*Click where the pop up box says “OpenAPI” to change from an API connection to an MCP connection.

1. Click **Register Client**

- This triggers Dynamic Client Registration with the MCP server — no manual credentials are required
- Open WebUI registers itself and stores the client info encrypted in its database

1. Click **Save**

#### Step 2: User Authorization Flow

The tool uses **per-user OAuth** — each user must authorize their own account before using the tool.

Users authorize as follows:

1. Open any chat in AI CTRL
2. Click **Integrations** → **Tools**
3. Toggle **MCP Tool** on (or Name equivalent)
4. A browser redirect to the destination’s OAuth login will open
5. The user logs in with their account and clicks **Accept**
6. They are redirected back to AI CTRL — the tool is now active for that session
