What you can do with this MCP connector
Your AI agent controls your facility's physical access and security system with this server. You can list every door, check its live status, and even unlock it remotely. You'll also pull detailed user profiles, audit access events, and manage all the credentials and groups assigned to staff. You can check core account and site details with get_account_info, list every user with list_users, get a specific person's profile with get_user, list all doors with list_doors, check a door's current status with get_door_status, and temporarily unlock a door using unlock_door.
You can audit security by getting a log of recent access events and alarms using list_access_events. You'll manage user permissions by listing all access groups with list_access_groups and listing all credentials assigned to users with list_credentials. The system also lets you see all time schedules that run automated door locks and unlocks with list_schedules.
How Brivo MCP Works
- 1 Subscribe to the Brivo server and provide your Brivo API credentials (Key, Username, Password).
- 2 Your AI agent executes a command, such as 'Show the status of the main entrance door.'
- 3 The server runs the
get_door_statustool and returns the real-time status to your agent.
The bottom line is, your AI agent runs security commands against Brivo and brings the results back to your current workspace.
Who Is Brivo MCP For?
Security Operations Center (SOC) staff and Facility Managers use this when they need to react quickly to physical incidents. IT Admins use it when they need to provision or audit user access in a workflow. It's for anyone who can't afford to spend time switching between a dashboard and a text editor.
Checks the status of all doors, unlocks emergency exits, and monitors access events during an incident.
Retrieves user access profiles, audits credentials, and manages user access groups for onboarding/offboarding.
Runs list_access_events to check historical logs and audit physical access attempts after an alarm.
What Changes When You Connect
- Check the live status of any door instantly. Use
get_door_statusto see if the server room door is currently locked or open, eliminating manual dashboard checks. - Audit user access and credentials quickly. Running
list_credentialslets you see every card or mobile pass assigned to a user without deep diving into the portal. - Manage the entire facility roster.
list_usersgives you a full directory of people, andget_userpulls their specific profile details in one call. - Track incidents without delay. Use
list_access_eventsto pull a chronological log of who entered and when, or to check for active alarms. - Control physical entry points.
unlock_doorallows your agent to temporarily unlock a specific door when a visitor needs access, all from your chat window. - Know the rules of the facility.
list_schedulesshows the automated time rules—when doors are supposed to lock—helping you troubleshoot access failures.
Real-World Use Cases
Handling a Guest Entry
A visitor arrives and needs access to the main office. Instead of calling facilities, the agent runs list_doors to find the main entrance ID, then uses unlock_door to temporarily open it. The problem is solved in three prompts.
Auditing Employee Access Changes
An employee is leaving. The agent runs get_user to pull their current profile, then list_credentials to confirm all access cards are deactivated and their access groups are removed before offboarding.
Investigating a Security Alarm
The security analyst receives an alarm notification. They immediately run list_access_events to see the last 10 entries around the alarm time, pinpointing the exact user and time of the incident.
Pre-Shift Facility Check
The facility manager starts the day by running list_doors and get_door_status for all critical points. This confirms every door is in its expected locked state before operations begin.
The Tradeoffs
Treating the server like a simple data query.
Just asking the agent, 'What are the doors and users?' This gives a list, but doesn't help you act on the data or know if anything is wrong.
→
Run a sequence. First, use list_doors to get the IDs. Then, use get_door_status with the IDs. Finally, use list_access_events to check the logs for that time frame. This gives a complete picture.
Forgetting to check schedules.
Assuming a door is locked at 10 PM because it should be. You don't know if the scheduled time changed or if a manual override is needed.
→
Always check list_schedules first. This confirms the automated locking policy before you trust the door's current status or make a manual change using unlock_door.
Relying on a single user profile.
Getting only the basic user info with get_user and thinking you know their full access rights. You might miss their access groups or credentials.
→
Combine calls. Use get_user to get the person, then run list_access_groups and list_credentials to audit their full scope of access.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this server if your job involves physical security, facility management, or IT access auditing. You need to know what the physical status is (e.g., is the door locked?) and who was there (e.g., who accessed the server room?). If you only need a simple database lookup (like finding a contact email), use a standard CRM API. But if the action involves physical world state—like unlocking a door or checking a real-time alarm—you need Brivo. Don't try to model a 'risk score' using this; it only reports current status and history. For predictive threat modeling, you need a specialized graph database tool.

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 10 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Available Capabilities
Checking facility access requires switching between five different dashboards.
Today, checking the status of a critical door means logging into the Brivo portal, navigating to the 'Doors' tab, finding the correct door ID, checking the status, and then maybe opening a second tab to check the 'Access Events' log. If you need to check a user's credentials, you log in again, go to 'Users,' and manually cross-reference the data.
With Brivo MCP Server, you just ask your agent. Ask it to 'Check the status of the server room and list the last 5 entries.' It runs the necessary tools (`get_door_status`, `list_access_events`) and gives you one clean answer in your workspace. No logins, no tabs.
Brivo MCP Server: Control physical access and audit events.
You no longer have to manually trigger an unlock sequence, find the correct door ID, and then manually log the temporary access in a ticketing system. You simply ask the agent to 'Unlock the main entrance for the maintenance team.' The server handles the API call and reports success immediately.
This isn't just about convenience. It's about making physical security actions—like temporary door unlocks or user provisioning checks—a native part of your daily workflow. It's direct, immediate, and verifiable.
Common Questions About Brivo MCP
How do I check the status of a door using the `get_door_status` tool? +
You need to specify the door ID or name. The agent runs get_door_status and reports if the door is open, closed, or locked. It's the fastest way to verify physical state.
What is the difference between `list_access_events` and `get_user`? +
These track different things. list_access_events shows what happened (who entered, when, and if there were alarms). get_user gives you who the person is (their name, details, and profile data).
Can I unlock a door using the `unlock_door` tool? +
Yes, the unlock_door tool performs a momentary unlock on a specified door. Remember, it only unlocks for a configured time period.
Do I need to run `list_users` before running `get_user`? +
No. While list_users gives you a full roster, you can directly use get_user if you already know the specific user's ID or name.
How do I use `list_credentials` to find all active access cards? +
It lists every physical and digital credential assigned to users. This helps you audit which cards or mobile passes are currently in use across the facility.
When should I use `list_schedules` compared to checking door status? +
Use list_schedules to see the programmed times for automated door locking. get_door_status tells you the door's current, live state right now.
If I get an error with `get_user`, what information should I check? +
Check the user's ID or name for typos. The error usually means the user profile doesn't exist or you lack the necessary permissions to view it.
How do I list all possible doors with `list_doors`? +
This tool returns a list of every access point ID and name on the site. You need this list to target specific doors for status checks or unlocks.
Can I unlock a door remotely using the agent? +
Yes! Use the unlock_door tool with the Access Point ID. Your agent will trigger a momentary unlock command in Brivo, allowing entry instantly.
How do I check if a door is currently open or closed? +
Simply ask the agent to get_door_status and provide the Access Point ID. It will retrieve the live state of the door from the Brivo cloud.
Does the integration allow adding a new user to the building? +
The current toolset focuses on control and monitoring (Read-Only/Unlock) for operational efficiency. Provisioning new users or changing core permissions should be managed via the Brivo administrator portal.
