anypoint-connect

Start here

You need Node.js >=22; Node.js 24 LTS is recommended. If Node and npm are unfamiliar, follow the 15-minute setup instead of guessing through the commands below.

# Install
npm install --global @sfdxy/anypoint-connect

# Save a Connected App Client ID and Secret
anc config init

# Authorize your Anypoint user in the browser
anc auth login

# Verify the local session and one visible environment
anc auth status
anc apps list --env Sandbox

The Connected App must be App acts on behalf of a user, use Authorization Code, redirect to http://localhost:3000/api/callback, and include Full Access plus Background Access. The credential guide gives the exact UI fields, administrator handoff, storage model, rotation steps, and troubleshooting.

Credential model

The ID and Secret do not provide access without a browser-authorized user session. Environment variables can override where app credentials come from, but they do not implement headless CI authentication. This release does not support the client_credentials grant, and its encrypted token file is machine-bound.

What it does

Copyable task flows are in Common recipes; every CLI command is in the CLI reference.

MCP server

Authenticate in a terminal before starting the server. The MCP host never receives the Client Secret or OAuth tokens; it sends tool calls to the local server that owns the session.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anypoint-connect": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@sfdxy/anypoint-connect@0.13.0", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

VS Code uses a servers wrapper and Codex uses TOML. See the MCP guide or copy a checked-in configuration from examples/mcp.

Example requests use synthetic names:

What applications are visible in Sandbox? Read only.
Analyze errors for sample-orders-api in Sandbox over the last two hours.
Preview a deployment of target/sample-orders-api-1.3.0-mule-application.jar to Sandbox; do not apply it.

Safety

Mutating MCP tools are previews until confirm: true is supplied. Artifact updates preserve runtime, target, replicas, and settings. Deletion requires the deployment ID returned by the preview, and production operations require an additional acknowledgement.

// Preview only
update_app_artifact({
  "appName": "sample-orders-api",
  "environment": "Sandbox",
  "version": "1.3.0"
})

// Apply the reviewed change
update_app_artifact({
  "appName": "sample-orders-api",
  "environment": "Sandbox",
  "version": "1.3.0",
  "confirm": true
})

The complete contract is in the safety model.

Library

The library reuses a profile authenticated with anc auth login. The Client ID and Secret construct the client; the profile selects the encrypted token store.

import { AnypointClient } from '@sfdxy/anypoint-connect';

const client = new AnypointClient({
  clientId: process.env.ANYPOINT_CLIENT_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.ANYPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET,
  profileName: process.env.ANYPOINT_PROFILE || 'default',
});

const identity = await client.whoami();
const environments = await client.accessManagement.getEnvironments(identity.organization.id);
console.log(`Authenticated; ${environments.length} environment(s) visible.`);

Direct API clients include bearer injection, refresh, rate limiting, and caching. They do not include the CLI/MCP confirmation gates. Start with the runnable JavaScript example in examples/library and read the library guide.

Profiles and multiple organizations

Use neutral profile names rather than customer names:

anc config init --profile team-a
anc auth login --profile team-a
anc config use team-a

The directory binding contains only a local profile label, but it can still reveal internal context. Add .anypoint-connect.json to the project's .gitignore. Resolution rules and storage layout are in Profiles.

Development

nvm use
npm install
npm run build
npm test
npm run lint
npm run docs:check
mkdocs build --strict

CI tests Node 22, 24, and 26. Documentation is built with MkDocs Material and published through GitHub Pages. Releases are tag-triggered and published to npm with provenance.
