Where do I find my API Key?

In your MakePlans account, go to Setup > Integrations > API. You must enable the API to see your key.

What is the Account Name?

It is the subdomain of your MakePlans URL (e.g., if your URL is https://mybiz.makeplans.com, the account name is 'mybiz').

Can I use the MakePlans MCP server for a public website?

The MCP server uses the Private API and requires an API key, so it is intended for internal or authenticated use rather than direct exposure to unauthenticated public users.
