How to Use the Elastic Email MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I connect the Elastic Email MCP Server to Windsurf?

Edit your /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json file and add the server endpoint. You can also use the Settings UI under Cascade to add it visually. Click refresh in the MCP panel and you're ready.

Q: Can Windsurf read my Elastic Email delivery logs?

Yes. Cascade uses the listdeliverylogs tool to pull recent sending statuses. It parses the bounce codes and explains exactly why a message failed.

Q: What happens if I ask Windsurf to check an Elastic Email campaign?

The agent executes listmarketingcampaigns to find the ID, then runs getcampaignperformance. You get open rates, click metrics, and bounce data printed directly in your editor.

Give Cascade direct access to your Elastic Email data so Windsurf can audit campaigns and build contact lists without leaving the editor.

Perplexity

Audit campaigns with this MCP Server

Cascade pulls the exact metrics you need using `get_campaign_performance` and `quick_marketing_volume_audit`. You avoid switching tabs or exporting CSV files. If a specific blast underperformed, Windsurf checks the underlying templates via `list_email_designs`. It chains these checks together and gives you a summary right in your IDE.

Drill into contact history

This integration lets your agent find exact users fast. Cascade runs `search_contacts_by_email` to locate a specific address, then fires `get_contact_profile` to pull their entire interaction history. You see exactly what they opened and when they bounced. It takes five seconds instead of digging through a web dashboard.

Debug delivery failures instantly

Email bounces kill your sender reputation. When a user reports missing mail, Cascade hits `list_delivery_logs` to find the exact drop reason. It can also check `get_elastic_email_metadata` to ensure you haven't hit account sending limits. The whole debugging loop happens autonomously.

No. The current toolset focuses on reading and auditing data. You can pull metrics, check contact lists, and view templates, but you cannot trigger new sends.

Vinkius runs this MCP server inside a V8 Isolate Sandbox. When Cascade pulls an email address or delivery log, that data lives only in memory and vanishes when the session ends. Nothing persists on our infrastructure.
