Server Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZENDESK_EMAIL | No | Your email address. Used with ZENDESK_API_KEY for the deprecated API token authentication. | |
| ZENDESK_API_KEY | No | Your Zendesk API key. Deprecated, but still works until 2027-04-30. | |
| ZENDESK_CLIENT_ID | No | The identifier of the OAuth client registered in Zendesk Admin Center. | |
| ZENDESK_SUBDOMAIN | No | Your Zendesk subdomain (e.g. 'acme' for https://acme.zendesk.com). | |
| ZENDESK_TOKEN_FILE | No | Path to the file where OAuth tokens are stored. Override to store tokens elsewhere, e.g. a Docker volume. | $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/zendesk-mcp/tokens.json |
| ZENDESK_OAUTH_SCOPES | No | Space-separated OAuth scopes to request. Narrow them if you do not need every tool, e.g. 'tickets:read users:read hc:read' for read-only access. | tickets:read tickets:write ticket_attachments:read users:read hc:read |
| ZENDESK_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI | No | OAuth redirect URI. Must match a redirect URL 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 |
