How to Use the Eventmaker MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do we share the Eventmaker MCP Server config in VS Code Copilot?

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your repository root and add the Eventmaker server details. Once committed, any developer opening the project in VS Code with Copilot enabled can use the tools.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot analyze Eventmaker check-in logs during a live event?

Yes, developers can run listeventcheckinslog through VS Code Copilot to fetch live scan data. The editor helps you write scripts to analyze arrival spikes and queue bottlenecks on the fly.

Q: How is our Eventmaker exhibitor and partner data protected?

Exhibitor data fetched via listeventexhibitors is transmitted over secure HTTPS connections directly to your local editor. No partner contact info or booth assignment data is stored on Vinkius servers or used for model training.

Share Eventmaker API integrations across your entire engineering team inside VS Code Copilot.

Team-Wide Eventmaker Integration in VS Code Copilot

The `get_eventmaker_account_metadata` tool exposes account limits and usage stats directly to your team's VS Code Copilot chat. By committing the configuration to your repository, every developer in VS Code instantly gains access to these Eventmaker metrics. This shared setup ensures your team works with identical Eventmaker API parameters. VS Code Copilot reads the account metadata to help you plan rate-limit handling across your collaborative event applications.

Audit Event Engagement in VS Code Copilot

The `quick_event_engagement_audit` tool lets your team run instant health checks on active conferences within the VS Code Copilot interface. Developers can query live attendee counts from Eventmaker without leaving their codebases. VS Code Copilot processes these audit summaries to help you build automated alert systems. The editor suggests precise threshold values based on the actual registration numbers pulled from the live Eventmaker API.

Track Exhibitors and Partners Directly

The `list_event_exhibitors` tool pulls current sponsor and partner lists directly into your shared VS Code Copilot environment. Your engineering team can quickly verify partner IDs and mapping configurations during development in VS Code. This direct access allows Copilot to write accurate data pipelines for Eventmaker sponsor portals. The editor reads the real exhibitor fields, eliminating guesswork when mapping custom logo URLs and booth locations.

Setup guide

Set up Eventmaker 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

Add the Eventmaker MCP

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.
4

Verify the connection

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

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eventmaker-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
