Perplexity

Control Legito version records inside VS Code Copilot

`get_document_version_data` retrieves the exact metadata and structure of any document draft directly within your editor. VS Code Copilot displays this structure so your engineering team can audit document schemas during development. If you need to make corrections, `update_document_record` modifies the metadata instantly. Your team maintains accurate records without switching contexts or opening external management portals.

Manage document sharing policies using this MCP Server

`share_with_user_group` links entire departments to specific documents using a single command in your chat window. VS Code Copilot handles the payload formatting to ensure the correct group IDs are targeted. To clean up access, `remove_share_from_user_group` revokes those permissions instantly. You keep your document distribution secure and audited directly from your team's primary coding environment.

Provision and configure workspace settings via Copilot

`get_info` pulls your active Legito workspace details directly into VS Code Copilot to verify your API connection. This tool helps developers confirm they are targetting the correct environment before running bulk operations. By using `list_countries` and `list_currencies`, you quickly pull localized system settings for your automation scripts. You build compliant workflows faster when your editor has direct access to platform metadata.
