How to Use the Hipsy MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: Can VS Code Copilot fetch Hipsy ticket orders?

Yes. By calling getorder, the agent retrieves specific transaction details to help you debug payment flows or write order-confirmation emails.

Q: Can I use the Hipsy MCP server with VS Code Copilot to debug webhooks?

You can use listwebhooks to inspect your current routing. Copilot will read the active endpoints and help you write the receiving controllers in your local project.

Q: How are customer check-ins protected when using Hipsy in VS Code Copilot?

The listscans tool retrieves timestamped entry logs through an isolated V8 sandbox. The data stays within your secure VS Code environment and is never retained after the prompt resolves.

Give your VS Code Copilot team instant access to Hipsy event data through a shared MCP Server.

Perplexity

Team-wide access to event APIs

The `check_hipsy_status` and `list_past_events` tools let your entire engineering team query historical ticketing data directly from their editor. By committing the configuration to your repository, every developer gets instant read access to the nightlife platform without needing separate API keys. When a junior engineer needs to understand how past festivals were structured, their AI client just pulls the records. They can ask Copilot to explain the data model based on actual past events instead of bothering a senior developer.

Build financial tools via this MCP Server

Using `list_orders_by_event` and `get_event_revenue`, this MCP Server feeds transactional data straight into your workspace. If your team is building a custom accounting export for a venue, Copilot fetches the raw order lists to generate the exact CSV parsing logic required. You skip the manual API testing phase entirely. The agent runs the query, grabs the revenue breakdown, and writes the aggregation functions using the real dollar amounts and ticket fees.

Develop faster door entry apps

The `list_attendees` and `list_scans` tools give Copilot the context it needs to help you build offline-first scanning apps. Your agent pulls the current check-in logs to analyze how the API paginates large crowds at a busy festival gate. This lets your team optimize database queries for local caching. Copilot sees the exact volume of scan entries and suggests indexing strategies to prevent bottlenecks when cellular networks drop at the venue.

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.
