Implementation Reference

• src/tools/profiles.js:62-94 (handler)

  The asynchronous handler function that constructs the profile attributes from input parameters and sends a POST request to the Klaviyo /profiles/ endpoint to create a new profile.

  async (params) => {
    try {
      const attributes = {};
      
      // Add all provided fields to attributes
      for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(params)) {
        if (value !== undefined && key !== 'properties') {
          attributes[key] = value;
        }
      }
      
      // Add properties if provided
      if (params.properties) {
        attributes.properties = params.properties;
      }
      
      const payload = {
        data: {
          type: "profile",
          attributes
        }
      };
      
      const result = await klaviyoClient.post('/profiles/', payload);
      return {
        content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }]
      };
    } catch (error) {
      return {
        content: [{ type: "text", text: `Error creating profile: ${error.message}` }],
        isError: true
      };
    }

• src/tools/profiles.js:54-60 (schema)

  Zod schema defining the optional input parameters for the create_profile tool: email, phone_number, external_id, first_name, last_name, and properties.

  {
    email: z.string().email().optional().describe("Email address of the profile"),
    phone_number: z.string().optional().describe("Phone number of the profile"),
    external_id: z.string().optional().describe("External ID for the profile"),
    first_name: z.string().optional().describe("First name of the profile"),
    last_name: z.string().optional().describe("Last name of the profile"),
    properties: z.record(z.any()).optional().describe("Additional properties for the profile")

• src/tools/profiles.js:52-97 (registration)

  The server.tool call that registers the create_profile tool, specifying its name, input schema, handler function, and description.

  server.tool(
    "create_profile",
    {
      email: z.string().email().optional().describe("Email address of the profile"),
      phone_number: z.string().optional().describe("Phone number of the profile"),
      external_id: z.string().optional().describe("External ID for the profile"),
      first_name: z.string().optional().describe("First name of the profile"),
      last_name: z.string().optional().describe("Last name of the profile"),
      properties: z.record(z.any()).optional().describe("Additional properties for the profile")
    },
    async (params) => {
      try {
        const attributes = {};
        
        // Add all provided fields to attributes
        for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(params)) {
          if (value !== undefined && key !== 'properties') {
            attributes[key] = value;
          }
        }
        
        // Add properties if provided
        if (params.properties) {
          attributes.properties = params.properties;
        }
        
        const payload = {
          data: {
            type: "profile",
            attributes
          }
        };
        
        const result = await klaviyoClient.post('/profiles/', payload);
        return {
          content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }]
        };
      } catch (error) {
        return {
          content: [{ type: "text", text: `Error creating profile: ${error.message}` }],
          isError: true
        };
      }
    },
    { description: "Create a new profile in Klaviyo" }
  );
