Connect Liftoff MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Liftoff to Windsurf and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automate campaign data discovery in Windsurf
Windsurf maps your entire account structure by calling `list_liftoff_campaigns` and `list_liftoff_apps` automatically. It identifies active IDs without you digging through the dashboard. Once it has the IDs, the agent pulls the necessary metadata. You get a clear view of your campaign hierarchy directly inside your workspace.
Sync performance reports with this MCP Server
You trigger report generation by calling `request_performance_report` with specific date ranges. The agent handles the hand-off to the API immediately. Windsurf then uses `get_report_status` to poll for completion. It doesn't stop until the data is ready for your review.
Download raw metrics for custom analysis
After the report finishes, the agent invokes `download_report_results` to bring the CSV file into your local project. You can immediately feed this into your own analysis scripts. It also uses `get_spend_metrics` for quick checks on live performance. You get the raw numbers without leaving the IDE.
