Zendesk MCP Server
Server Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZENDESK_EMAIL | No | Email address for deprecated API token authentication. | |
| ZENDESK_API_KEY | No | API key for deprecated API token authentication. | |
| ZENDESK_CLIENT_ID | No | Identifier of the public OAuth client. When set, OAuth takes precedence over API token authentication. | |
| ZENDESK_SUBDOMAIN | No | Zendesk subdomain, e.g. acme for https://acme.zendesk.com. | |
| ZENDESK_TOKEN_FILE | No | Location of the token store. Defaults to ~/.config/zendesk-mcp/tokens.json. Useful for storing tokens elsewhere, for example a Docker volume. | $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/zendesk-mcp/tokens.json |
| ZENDESK_OAUTH_SCOPES | No | Space-separated OAuth scopes to request. Defaults cover every tool this server exposes. Narrow them for less access, e.g. 'tickets:read users:read hc:read' for read-only access. | |
| ZENDESK_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI | No | OAuth redirect URI. Must match a redirect URL registered on the OAuth client exactly. Change if port 4567 is in use or the client is registered with a different redirect URL. | http://localhost:4567/callback |
