Snapsight MCP

Connect Snapsight MCP to Your AI Tools

Integration Guide

Connect Snapsight MCP to your AI tools

Access your event transcripts, session summaries, speaker data, and AI-generated insights directly from Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, VS Code, or any MCP-compatible client.

What is Snapsight MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants connect to external data sources. Think of it like USB-C for AI apps: a universal way for tools to plug together.

With Snapsight MCP, your AI assistant can query your event data in real time: pull session transcripts, search across talks, extract key quotes, retrieve speaker details, and generate content grounded in what was actually said at your event.

Event recap

"Summarize the key themes across all sessions at our conference"

Speaker analysis

"What did the keynote speaker say about AI and the future of work?"

Content creation

"Create a blog post from the top takeaways of today's summit"

Report generation

"Build a 10-page report with quotes and stats from the event"

Before you start

Snapsight account on a paid plan

MCP access enabled in Settings → Advanced

Your MCP URL and OAuth credentials from the settings page

An AI client that supports MCP (see options below)

Your MCP URL and OAuth credentials are available in Settings → Advanced → MCP server access once access has been activated.

Connect to your AI tool

Choose your AI client below for step-by-step setup instructions.

1Open Claude Desktop and click Settings (gear icon).
2Go to Connectors in the left sidebar.
3Click Add custom connector.
4Enter Snapsight as the connector name.
5Paste your MCP server URL: https://mcp.snapsight.com/mcp
6Expand Advanced settings, then enter your OAuth Client ID and OAuth Client Secret from Snapsight settings.
7Click Add. Complete the authentication when prompted.
8In a new conversation, click the + button at the bottom left, then Connectors, and toggle Snapsight on.

Once connected, start a new conversation and mention your event. Claude will automatically use Snapsight tools to fetch the relevant data.

Run this command in your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http snapsight https://mcp.snapsight.com/mcp

This registers the Snapsight MCP server. You will authenticate via browser when first used.

1Run the command above in your terminal. Claude Code will register the Snapsight MCP server.
2When prompted, authenticate via the browser window that opens.
3Verify the connection by running /mcp in Claude Code. You should see "snapsight-mcp" listed as connected.

To set the scope, add --scope user (available everywhere) or --scope project (current project only).

1Open Cursor and go to Settings (Cmd+Shift+J / Ctrl+Shift+J).
2Navigate to Tools & MCP.
3Click New MCP Server.
4Enter snapsight as the name and paste the URL: https://mcp.snapsight.com/mcp
5Cursor auto-detects the transport. Click Save.
6A green dot next to the server name confirms it is connected. Snapsight tools will be available in Cursor's AI chat.

Alternatively, add this to your .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snapsight": {
      "url": "https://mcp.snapsight.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

1Open ChatGPT and go to Settings.
2Navigate to Connectors (or Apps & Connectors).
3Under Advanced, toggle on Developer Mode. (For Team/Enterprise, a workspace admin must enable this first.)
4Click Create to add a new connector.
5Enter Snapsight as the name, add a description, and paste the URL: https://mcp.snapsight.com/mcp
6Configure OAuth authentication if prompted, then click Create.
7Snapsight tools will appear when you start a new conversation.

MCP support in ChatGPT requires a Plus, Team, or Enterprise subscription. If you don't see the Connectors option, ensure your app is updated to the latest version.

Add the following to your .vscode/mcp.json file (create it if it doesn't exist):

{
  "servers": {
    "snapsight": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.snapsight.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

1Save the file. VS Code will detect the MCP configuration automatically.
2Open the GitHub Copilot chat panel (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + I).
3Switch to Agent mode. You should see Snapsight tools available. Authenticate when prompted.

1Open Windsurf Settings and navigate to the Cascade → MCP section.
2Click Add Server and enter Snapsight as the name.
3Set the transport to HTTP and paste your Remote MCP server URL.
4Save and authenticate when prompted. Snapsight tools will appear in the Cascade AI panel.

Alternatively, add to your ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snapsight": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.snapsight.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

For any MCP-compatible client, you need three things from your Snapsight settings:

            Connection details
            # Server URL (Streamable HTTP)
URL:            https://mcp.snapsight.com/mcp

# OAuth credentials (if required by your client)
Client ID:      snp-client-xxxxxxxx
Client Secret:  snp-secret-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
          

1Find the MCP or remote server settings in your AI tool.
2Add a new server using the HTTP (Streamable HTTP) transport type.
3Paste your server URL. If your client requires OAuth credentials, enter the Client ID and Client Secret from Snapsight settings.
4Save, authenticate, and verify the connection shows Snapsight tools.

The Snapsight MCP uses Streamable HTTP transport. If your client only supports SSE, it should still work with the same URL.

Troubleshooting

No tools showing up after connecting

Try disconnecting and reconnecting the server. In Claude, go to Settings → MCP and remove the Snapsight connector, then add it again. Make sure you complete the OAuth authentication step when the browser window opens. If the issue persists, verify that MCP access is enabled and active (green status) in your Snapsight Settings → Advanced page.

"Access denied" or "Unauthorized" errors

Your OAuth session may have expired. Disconnect and reconnect the MCP server to re-authenticate. If you recently regenerated your OAuth credentials in Snapsight settings, you will need to update them in your AI client as well.

Connected to the wrong organization

Each MCP URL includes your organization ID in the ?org= parameter. Check that the URL in your AI client matches the one shown in your Snapsight settings. If you belong to multiple organizations, make sure you are using the URL for the correct one.

Session content is empty or unavailable

Content (transcripts, summaries, takeaways) is only available for sessions with a completed status. Sessions that are scheduled, live, or still transcribing will not have content yet. Ask your AI assistant to check the session status first.

Can I use this with multiple AI tools at the same time?

Yes. You can connect Snapsight MCP to Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, and any other MCP-compatible client simultaneously. Each connection uses its own OAuth session. Your data and tools will work the same way across all connected clients.

Is my event data shared with AI providers?

Snapsight MCP sends data only when the AI assistant explicitly calls a tool during your conversation. Data is transmitted per-request and is subject to the AI provider's data handling policies. Snapsight does not proactively push data to any AI provider. Review your AI provider's privacy policy for details on how conversation data is handled.
