How to Use the Activepieces MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Build live automation dashboards where users watch Vercel AI SDK execute Activepieces flows right in your React frontend.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Activepieces MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Activepieces to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Control automations via Vercel AI SDK
This server gives your agent direct access to `create_flow` and `apply_flow_operation` commands. Building a custom UI for internal operations usually means writing dozens of API endpoints. Now you just wire up the MCP transport and let the language model handle the logic. Users ask your Next.js app to set up a new integration. The agent immediately calls `list_app_connections` to check existing credentials before creating anything. Because the AI SDK streams tool results, the user sees the new workflow configure itself live on screen instead of staring at a loading spinner.
Stream execution data to the UI
Fetching execution logs with `get_flow_run` pulls raw diagnostic data directly into your frontend components. Support teams need to know exactly why an automation failed without logging into another dashboard. Your chat interface becomes the primary window into system health. When someone types a query about recent errors, the agent runs `list_flow_runs` to grab the history. It parses the payload and feeds formatted text back to the browser. You get a real-time debugging console built entirely on natural language.
Manage internal tables dynamically
Interacting with custom platform data requires the `list_tables` and `list_records` tools. Developers often ignore built-in storage because the API overhead slows down feature delivery. Exposing these commands through an MCP Server changes the math completely. Your agent can read existing configuration rows and immediately trigger an `update_record` call based on user input. We see teams building entire CRM interfaces in Svelte using just these basic primitives. The database updates happen instantly while the chat response is still generating.
Set up Activepieces MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
-
ai+@modelcontextprotocol/sdkpackages - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install dependencies
Run
npm install ai @modelcontextprotocol/sdkplus your preferred model provider (e.g.@ai-sdk/openai). - 2
Create the Streamable HTTP transport
Use
StreamableHTTPClientTransportwith your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. - 3
Discover and use tools
Call
mcpClient.tools()to auto-discover all Activepieces tools. Pass them directly togenerateText()orstreamText()— no manual schema definitions needed. - 4
Works with any model provider
Swap
openai("gpt-4o")for any AI SDK provider — Anthropic, Google, Mistral. The MCP tools work identically across all supported models.
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp";
import { generateText } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
new URL("https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp")
);
const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({ transport });
const tools = await mcpClient.tools();
const { text } = await generateText({
model: openai("gpt-4o"),
tools,
prompt: "List recent Activepieces transactions",
});
console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close(); Independent Platform Disclaimer: Vinkius is an independent platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, verified by, or otherwise authorized by Activepieces.
