Prerequisites

Setup

Server
  • Clone this repository
  • Install dependencies: yarn install
  • Build the TypeScript code: yarn run build
  • Create a .env file in the root folder of this project, and add your APS credentials:
    • APS_CLIENT_ID - your APS application client ID
    • APS_CLIENT_SECRET - your APS application client secret
  • Create a new service account: npx create-service-account <username> <first name> <last name>, for example, npx create-service-account ssa-test-user John Doe
    • This script will output a bunch of environment variables with information about the new account:
      • APS_SA_ID - your service account ID
      • APS_SA_EMAIL - your service account email
      • APS_SA_KEY_ID - your service account key ID
      • APS_SA_PRIVATE_KEY - your service account private key
  • Add these environment variables to your .env file
Autodesk Construction Cloud
  • Register your APS application client ID as a custom integration
  • Invite the service account email as a new member to your ACC project(s)

Use with Inspector

Use with Claude Desktop

  • Make sure you have Claude Desktop installed
  • Create a Claude Desktop config file if you don't have one yet:
    • On macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
    • On Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
  • Add this MCP server to the config, using the absolute path of the build/server.js file on your system, for example:
{ "mcpServers": { "autodesk-platform-services": { "command": "node", "args": [ "/absolute/path/to/aps-mcp-server/build/server.js" ] } } }
  • Open Claude Desktop, and try some of the following test prompt:
    • What ACC projects do I have access to?
    • Give me a visual dashboard of all issues in project XYZ

For more details on how to add MCP servers to Claude Desktop, see the official documentation.

Use with Visual Studio Code & Copilot

{ "servers": { "Autodesk Platform Services": { "type": "stdio", "command": "node", "args": [ "/absolute/path/to/aps-mcp-server/build/server.js" ] } } }

For more details on how to add MCP servers to Visual Studio Code, see the documentation

Use with Cursor

  • Create .cursor/mcp.json file in your workspace, and add the following JSON to it:
{ "mcpServers": { "Autodesk Platform Services": { "command": "node", "args": [ "/Users/brozp/Code/Temp/aps-mcp-server-node/build/server.js" ] } } }

For more details on how to add MCP servers to Cursor, see the documentation
