monday MCP is the hosted server that gives AI tools secure access to your monday.com workspace. It connects your account directly to AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and Copilot Studio through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard for AI integrations.
MCP is preinstalled on all monday.com accounts.
If you can't connect, ask your admin to check Admin → Permissions → AI Connectors. See Managing AI Connectors & MCP Access for more information.
