Step 1 — Connect Your AI (Claude / ChatGPT)

Bring your own AI over MCP and run WebMobi from chat — unlimited, with no per-message credits

Why this is your first step

WebMobi speaks MCP (Model Context Protocol), so you can connect your own Claude or ChatGPT and create, edit, import and publish events straight from chat. Because it's your AI subscription, there are no per-message WebMobi credits — this is the unlimited-AI path on every plan.

Good to know:

  • The in-app AI chat at /dashboard/create is reserved for Enterprise/BYOK plans — MCP gives everyone else the same power.
  • Every MCP action runs as the key owner and is scoped to your own events.
  • There are no attendee/registration-writing MCP tools — those stay in the dashboard.

The MCP endpoint

WebMobi exposes a single Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint:

POST https://events.webmobi.com/api/mcp
Authorization: Bearer wm_live_…

You can browse landing details at /mcp and worked flows at /mcp/guide.

A

One-click OAuth (easiest)

  1. In Claude, add a custom connector and paste just the URL: https://events.webmobi.com/api/mcp
  2. Leave the OAuth fields blank.
  3. Approve the one consent screen WebMobi shows you.
  4. Done — no key to copy. Claude is now connected to your WebMobi account.
B

API key (personal access token)

  1. Go to Settings → API keys and click Create new key.
  2. Choose a read-only key to browse only, or a write key to create / import / publish.
  3. Copy the wm_live_… value — it is shown only once.
  4. Add it to your MCP client:

Direct HTTP clients:

{
  "url": "https://events.webmobi.com/api/mcp",
  "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer wm_live_YOUR_KEY" }
}

Claude Desktop (stdio):

npx -y mcp-remote https://events.webmobi.com/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer wm_live_YOUR_KEY"

The API keys page lists each key's Name, Prefix (wm_live_…), Scopes, Last used and Created date, with a Revoke button.

Confirm it works

Ask your AI to call webmobi_whoami — it returns your plan and limits, confirming the connection.

From there your AI can:

  • Browse / search the catalogue and list your events
  • Create / update / publish / clone / archive an event, or draft one from a prompt
  • Manage sessions, speakers, sponsors and exhibitors
  • Read ticket types (ticket types are read-only over MCP)

Next Step

Your AI is connected. Time to create your first event.
