## Quick Start
### 1. Get Your API Token
1. Sign up at [AceDataCloud Platform](https://platform.acedata.cloud)
2. Go to the [API documentation page](https://platform.acedata.cloud/documents/e52c028d-897a-4d51-b110-60fccbe6118d)
3. Click **"Acquire"** to get your API token
4. Copy the token for use below
### 2. Use the Hosted Server (Recommended)
AceDataCloud hosts a managed MCP server — **no local installation required**.
**Endpoint:** `https://midjourney.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp`
All requests require a Bearer token. Use the API token from Step 1.
#### Claude.ai
Connect directly on [Claude.ai](https://claude.ai) with OAuth — **no API token needed**:
1. Go to Claude.ai **Settings → Integrations → Add More**
2. Enter the server URL: `https://midjourney.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp`
3. Complete the OAuth login flow
4. Start using the tools in your conversation
#### Claude Desktop

```
### 3. Or Run Locally (Alternative)
If you prefer to run the server on your own machine:
```bash
# Install from PyPI
pip install mcp-midjourney
# or
uvx mcp-midjourney
# Set your API token
export ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"
# Run (stdio mode for Claude Desktop / local clients)
mcp-midjourney
# Run (HTTP mode for remote access)
mcp-midjourney --transport http --port 8000
```
#### Claude Desktop (Local)
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"midjourney": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["mcp-midjourney"],
"env": {
"ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
}
}
}
}
```
#### Docker (Self-Hosting)
```bash
docker pull ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-midjourney:latest
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-midjourney:latest
```
Clients connect with their own Bearer token — the server extracts the token from each request's `Authorization` header.
