Uberall Platform MCP Server

The Uberall Platform MCP server is a hosted Model Context Protocol server that lets AI assistants and agents securely read and analyze your Uberall data using natural language. It exposes Uberall capabilities across Locations Hub, Listings, Reviews, Social, Homepage, and Dashboard as MCP tools, and works with any MCP-compatible client.

It is a remote server: there is nothing to install or run locally. You connect your MCP client to a single HTTPS endpoint and authenticate with your Uberall account.

This hosted server replaces the previous local (stdio) uberall-mcp-server, which is now deprecated.

Endpoint

EnvironmentURLTransport
Productionhttps://mcp.uberall.com/mcpStreamable HTTP
Sandboxhttps://mcp.sandbox.uberall.com/mcpStreamable HTTP

Prerequisites

  • An active Uberall account with access to the data you want to query. If you are not set up yet, get in touch (see Getting Started).
  • An MCP-compatible client that supports remote, streamable-HTTP servers.
  • One of the two supported authentication methods below. For the API-key method, see Get your API keys.

Authentication

The server supports two ways to authenticate, depending on your account type.

Most users connect via OAuth 2.0. Your MCP client opens an Uberall login page in the browser; after you sign in and approve, the client is connected — no API key handling required.

Note: token refresh is not yet supported, so you will occasionally be asked to re-authenticate. While a session is active the experience is seamless.

Bearer API key (API_ADMIN users)

Accounts with the API_ADMIN role can authenticate by sending their Uberall API key as a bearer token:

Authorization: Bearer <UBERALL_API_KEY>

Find your key under Org settings → API Keys in the Uberall app — see Get your API keys for the full walkthrough. Use the private server key (X-API-KEY / privateKey); for details on Uberall's keys and token lifecycle, see Authentication and versioning.

Connecting

The server works with any MCP client that supports remote, streamable-HTTP servers. Point your client at the endpoint and authenticate with either OAuth or a bearer API key.

Most clients accept a JSON server definition like this (OAuth — the first request opens an Uberall login in your browser):

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

For API_ADMIN users, supply your API key as a bearer token instead (replace UBERALL_API_KEY):

{
  "type": "http",
  "url": "https://mcp.uberall.com/mcp",
  "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer UBERALL_API_KEY" }
}

Refer to your MCP client's own documentation for where to register a remote/streamable-HTTP server — typically a settings screen, a CLI command, or a JSON config file. To try the server before wiring it into a client, you can also point the MCP Inspector at the endpoint above.

Available tools

All tools are read-only: they retrieve and analyze your Uberall data and never modify it.

Each tool is exposed under a domain-prefixed name in the form <prefix>_<tool>. The tables below list the tool by its base name; the prefix for each domain is shown in its heading. For example, find_business in Locations Hub is exposed as locationsHub_find_business.

Example prompts

Once connected, ask your assistant natural-language questions such as:

  • "Which of my locations are disconnected from Google, and how do I reconnect them?"
  • "Summarize the reviews with fewer than 3 stars from the last 30 days."
  • "Show the listing sync status for location 2946407."
  • "Find all businesses on the Advanced product plan with more than 50 locations."
  • "How have my impressions and clicks trended over the last 30 days, and which locations have the lowest performance score?"

FAQ & troubleshooting

Why am I occasionally asked to sign in again? Token refresh is not yet supported for OAuth, so sessions are not renewed automatically — browser clients re-authenticate more often than desktop apps. Separately, Uberall access tokens require a fresh manual login after long inactivity; see Access Token Lifecycle.

I get a 401 / "unauthorized" error. For OAuth, make sure you completed the browser sign-in. For the API-key method, confirm the bearer token belongs to an API_ADMIN account and is the private server key — see Get your API keys.

No tools show up, or the connector won't connect. Check that the URL is exactly https://mcp.uberall.com/mcp, that your client supports remote streamable-HTTP servers, and that authentication completed. Remote MCP servers can also be blocked by a corporate VPN or firewall.

Can I try it without touching production data? Yes — point the connector at the sandbox endpoint https://mcp.sandbox.uberall.com/mcp. See the Sandbox Environment for what it supports.
