About Heap MCP Server
Connect your Heap.io analytics account to any AI agent and take full control of your product data and user identity management through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Heap tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 12 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Event Tracking — Send custom server-side events to Heap to capture granular user interactions.
- User Identification — Associate anonymous sessions with specific identities and set custom profile properties.
- Segment Management — List all segments defined in your project to understand your user cohorts.
- Event Definitions — Access your custom event definitions to stay aligned with your analytics schema.
- Bulk Operations — Track multiple events or update several user profiles in a single high-throughput request.
- GDPR Compliance — Permanently delete user data directly from the chat interface when requested.
- Query Profiles — Filter and retrieve user profiles based on specific behavior or attributes.
The Heap MCP Server exposes 12 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
