KonbiniAPI

The same social data, available to AI agents through MCP.

Point a supported client at one server URL, authorize it once, and its agent can fetch public social data itself — the same endpoints as the REST API, the same infrastructure behind them, and the same credits.

If you are building software, the REST API is the one to reach for. MCP is for recurring work inside an AI or automation tool you already have open.

Supported clients.

Every one of these has a tested, step-by-step setup guide. Each card is the one-line version of it — where the server URL goes in that client — and the guide has the exact steps.

Chat

Ask for social data in a conversation and get a structured answer back. Best for one-off research and for checking something before a decision.

  • ChatGPT

    Added under Settings → Apps as a custom app, with the server URL and OAuth. Once authorized it is there on web, desktop, and mobile.

    Availability depends on your plan — Plus and Pro need developer mode turned on.

    Setup guide6 workflows

  • Claude

    Added under Customize → Connectors as a custom connector, then authorized in the browser.

    Remote custom connectors are in beta; free accounts are limited to one.

Code

Give a coding agent live social data while it works — useful when you are building against the API and want the agent to see real responses.

  • Claude Code

    One command — claude mcp add --transport http — then /mcp inside a session to authorize. Add --scope user for every project.

    Setup guide

  • Codex

    codex mcp add in the CLI, or Settings → MCP servers in the Codex app. Editing ~/.codex/config.toml works too.

    Setup guide

  • Cursor

    Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server, type HTTP. Cursor opens the browser to link your account.

    Setup guide

  • VS Code

    A .vscode/mcp.json in the workspace, or the global user config. Authorizes on first use in Agent mode.

    GitHub Copilot reads the same configuration.

    Setup guide

  • Antigravity

    Manage MCP Servers → View raw config to add the URL, then Authenticate under Agent Settings → Customizations.

    Setup guide

  • Gemini CLI

    An httpUrl entry in ~/.gemini/settings.json, then /mcp auth konbiniapi and a browser sign-in.

    Setup guide

  • Windsurf

    Cascade → MCP Servers, or ~/.codeium/mcp_config.json directly. The OAuth flow opens the first time a tool runs.

    Setup guide

  • Cline

    The Cline panel → MCP Servers → Remote Servers, over Streamable HTTP.

    Setup guide

  • Replit

    Integrations → MCP Servers → Add MCP Server. Replit Agent launches the auth flow the first time it uses one.

    Setup guide

  • Zed

    Agent Panel → Settings → Add Custom Server, in the UI or in settings JSON. Leave the Authorization header off and Zed runs OAuth itself.

    Setup guide

Automation

Put a KonbiniAPI call inside a scheduled workflow, so a recurring report or alert runs without anyone starting it.

  • Zapier

    Apps → Add connection → MCP Client, over Streamable HTTP. Then pick a KonbiniAPI tool inside a Zap and map its inputs.

    Zapier lists MCP Client as beta.

    Setup guide5 workflows

  • n8n

    The MCP Client node when you want tools as ordinary workflow steps, or MCP Client Tool to hand them to an n8n AI Agent.

    Setup guide5 workflows

  • Make

    The MCP Client module in a scenario. Make loads the tool list itself, so you pick a tool and map inputs in the UI.

    Setup guide

  • Pipedream

    Point an MCP-aware workflow at the server URL, load the tool list, and call the typed tool you need.

    Setup guide

Using a client that is not on this list? The server is a standard remote MCP endpoint over HTTP with OAuth or a bearer API key, and the custom agents guide covers connecting your own. It is not on the list above because we have not tested it, not because it will not work.

One connection, then the tools are just there.

Setup is a server URL and an authorization step. After that the agent sees one tool per supported endpoint and calls them itself, with results in the same normalized shape the REST API returns.

  1. 01

    Connect the client

    Add https://mcp.konbiniapi.com in your client’s MCP settings and authorize it. Most clients use a browser login; some take a KonbiniAPI API key as a bearer token instead. The setup guide for your client says which.

  2. 02

    The agent gets the tools

    One typed tool per supported endpoint — tiktok_get_user_videos, reddit_get_subreddit_posts, linkedin_get_company, and the rest. Projection options keep results small when a workflow only needs a few fields.

  3. 03

    It calls them when asked

    A successful tool call costs the same credits as the matching REST call and comes back in the same normalized model. Usage lands in the same dashboard.

The REST API is the primary interface, and the same endpoints back both. Start there if the work runs inside software you own.
