Connect a client
Connecting takes three steps: create a key, add the server to your client, and ask it a question to confirm it works.
1. Create an API key
In the console, open Settings → API keys and create a key. Copy it straight away, since it's only shown once. See API keys for more.
2. Add the server
Enter your details to fill in a configuration block:
Your key stays in this browser tab. It isn't sent or saved anywhere.
{
"mcpServers": {
"zlicx": {
"url": "https://mcp.in.zlicx.ai/mcp",
"headers": {
"x-api-key": "YOUR_ZLICX_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}Or copy the block for your client, and replace the placeholder with your key:
Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or to the global file in your home folder.
{
"mcpServers": {
"zlicx": {
"url": "https://mcp.in.zlicx.ai/mcp",
"headers": { "x-api-key": "YOUR_ZLICX_API_KEY" }
}
}
}3. Check the connection
Restart or reconnect your client, then ask it something harmless that only reads data:
- “List my zlicx agents.”
- “Show my most recent zlicx call logs.”
If you get an error, see troubleshooting.
