How to Use the WorkOS MCP in LlamaIndex
Ground your RAG applications in WorkOS data using LlamaIndex to index API results.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect WorkOS MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect WorkOS to LlamaIndex and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Indexing User and Group Data
The developer runs `list_directory_users` to gather account records, then uses the tool output as a source document for indexing. This means your knowledge base contains actual user IDs and names. LlamaIndex treats this API data just like a PDF, allowing semantic search against current directory structures.
Querying Organization Structure
Instead of needing exact keywords, you can ask: 'What's the status of our primary WorkOS organization?' The system queries `get_organization_details` and indexes that response. This grounds your answer in real API data. It’s how RAG applications move beyond basic document search into live infrastructure querying.
Semantic Search on Audit Logs
If you need to know 'Why was the directory sync paused last week?' You query `get_audit_log_events`. LlamaIndex indexes the event descriptions, allowing you to retrieve answers based on meaning, not just keywords. This makes historical troubleshooting effortless without manual log parsing.
