Open on GitHubWhat Unipile MCP does
The server gives a coding agent access to Unipile API routes and their request and response details. It can guide work on integrations for LinkedIn, Sales Navigator, Recruiter, WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Gmail, Outlook, IMAP and Google or Outlook calendars. Agents can also send calls to connected accounts while testing an integration.
Connect a test account in the Unipile dashboard, create a Scope and obtain a scoped Account API key before using the server. This is a development-time tool. Deployed product code calls the REST API directly or uses the Node.js or Python SDK, so the product does not rely on MCP at runtime. Keep that boundary in mind when planning the integration.
What it helps with
- find the Unipile route for LinkedIn people search
- add invitation sending and status checks
- sync WhatsApp and LinkedIn conversations to an inbox
- test an API call against a connected account
Example prompts for the agent
- Add a Sales Navigator lead search with filters for job title and company size.
- Sync WhatsApp and LinkedIn conversations into our inbox.
- Add email sending through Gmail, Outlook and IMAP.
