HelpSite MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server
The HelpSite MCP Server lets you connect your HelpSite knowledge base to AI tools that support MCP, also known as Model Context Protocol.
With MCP, supported AI tools can securely work with your HelpSite content through your HelpSite API key. This makes it easier to find articles, review your site structure, draft new help content, and manage knowledge base updates without opening every article manually.
For example, you can ask an AI tool to:
Find articles that mention a certain topic
Show your HelpSite sites, categories, and articles
Retrieve the full content of an article
Draft a new article for a specific category
Update an existing article
Help organize categories
The HelpSite MCP Server is designed for teams that want to use AI-assisted workflows while keeping their HelpSite content connected and up to date.
What does MCP mean?
MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It is a standard that lets AI tools connect to outside systems, such as HelpSite, and use approved tools to access or manage information.
In HelpSite, MCP acts as a bridge between your knowledge base and supported AI tools.
