How to Use the Bill.com MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do we share the Bill.com integration across our team in VS Code Copilot?

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your repository and commit it to Git. As long as your team is running VS Code 1.96 or newer, Copilot will automatically discover and use the MCP server.

Q: Can I fetch my company profile details?

Yes. The getcompanyprofile tool retrieves your organization's setup parameters, which helps the agent understand your accounting preferences and tax configurations.

Manage vendor bills and track payments right inside VS Code Copilot with team-wide configuration.

Team-wide AP tracking in VS Code Copilot

The Bill.com MCP Server brings your entire financial ledger into your team's development workspace. Developers can run `list_payments` to check transaction statuses without waiting for the finance team to export reports. By committing the configuration to your repository, everyone on the engineering team gets instant access to the same tools. It removes the bottleneck of sharing read-only dashboard access.

Audit invoices against code deployments

The `list_invoices` tool lets your agent pull customer billing records directly into your chat. You can compare active customer subscriptions against your database records to ensure your billing logic matches reality. This is useful during database migrations. The agent can cross-reference live invoice data with your local test tables to verify that no customer accounts are dropped.

Sync vendor records automatically

The `create_vendor` and `get_vendor` tools let you maintain your supplier database straight from the terminal chat. If a developer needs to register a new API provider, they can do it without leaving their workflow. The agent handles the formatting and validation. It checks the existing vendor list first to prevent duplicates, then writes the new record directly to your account.

Setup guide

Set up Bill.com MCP in VS Code Copilot

Prerequisites

VS Code 1.99 or later with GitHub Copilot extension
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and run "MCP: Add Server". Select HTTP (Streamable) as the server type. VS Code will create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace.
2

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Switch to Agent mode

Open Copilot Chat (Cmd+Shift+I / Ctrl+Shift+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode — they do not appear in Edit or Ask modes.

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the Bill.com tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Bill.com transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.
