Connect Nango (Unified API & Integration Platform) MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Nango (Unified API & Integration Platform) to VS Code Copilot and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Team-Wide Integration Auditing
Commit a `.vscode/mcp.json` file to your repo, and your entire engineering team gets access to these Nango tools in Copilot. Anyone can run a quick audit with `list_connections` to see what's active across your platform. It standardizes how your team checks integration health. When a bug report comes in, any developer can ask Copilot to use `get_connection` to pull the metadata for the affected user. There's no need to ask for access to a separate dashboard; the context is right there in the editor.
Debug Syncs from Your Editor
Don't switch to a browser tab to check on a data sync. Ask Copilot to run `list_syncs` and show you the latest job statuses from Nango. You can filter by provider or connection ID to find exactly what you're looking for. This is especially useful for end-to-end testing. After triggering a sync, use `list_records` in Copilot to confirm the unified records were created correctly. This MCP setup closes the loop on debugging without leaving VS Code.
Standardize API Usage with VS Code Copilot
This MCP Server helps enforce consistency. When a developer needs to work with a new integration, they can ask Copilot to use `list_integrations` to see the approved, Nango-managed options. This prevents one-off, unmanaged API connections. Copilot can then use `get_integration` to fetch the exact configuration and `get_environment` to confirm it's pointing to the correct Nango instance (e.g., staging). This reduces configuration errors and ensures everyone on the team is building against the same spec.
