Authentication

In short: authenticate every MCP request with the headerAuthorization: Bearer flt_…using an API key from your dashboard. The key resolves to your account, plan and credits.

Get a key

Open the dashboard → API Keys (or MCP / Agents) → create a key. Keys begin with flt_ and the full value is shown only once — store it securely.

Use it

Most clients accept a header. With the mcp-remote bridge:

npx -y mcp-remote https://convertfleet.com/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer flt_YOUR_KEY"

Verify a key

Call the account_status tool (free, no credits) to confirm your key works and see remaining credits.

OAuth 2.1

An optional OAuth 2.1 + PKCE flow is available for clients that prefer it (Hermes, Zapier). Bearer authentication works for every supported client, so OAuth is not required.
