What is the Authing MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire identity infrastructure with Authing, the premier cloud-native IDaaS platform. By connecting Authing to your agent, you transform complex user management, organizational modeling, and security auditing into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly list users, retrieve detailed profile metadata, browse organizational structures, and monitor security audit logs without you ever needing to navigate the comprehensive Authing console. Whether you are conducting a compliance audit or managing application access, your agent acts as a real-time identity assistant, keeping your user data accurate and your systems secure.
What you can do
- User Orchestration — List and retrieve detailed information about users in your Authing user pool.
- Organizational Management — Browse and monitor organizational units and hierarchies across your company.
- Access Control Auditing — List roles, groups, and permission resources to identify authorization patterns.
- Security Monitoring — Retrieve real-time security audit logs to monitor administrative and user actions.
- System Configuration — Access high-level security settings and metadata for your identity projects.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Authing User Pool ID, Access Key, and Domain
- Start managing your identity platform through Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?

Why CrewAI?
When paired with CrewAI, Authing becomes a first-class tool in your multi-agent workflows. Each agent in the crew can call Authing tools autonomously, one agent queries data, another analyzes results, a third compiles reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius with zero configuration overhead.
- —
Multi-agent collaboration lets you decompose complex workflows into specialized roles, one agent researches, another analyzes, a third generates reports, each with access to MCP tools
- —
CrewAI's native MCP integration requires zero adapter code: pass Vinkius Edge URL directly in the
mcpsparameter and agents auto-discover every available tool at runtime - —
Built-in task delegation and shared memory mean agents can pass context between steps without manual state management, enabling multi-hop reasoning across tool calls
- —
Sequential and hierarchical crew patterns map naturally to real-world workflows: enumerate subdomains → analyze DNS history → check WHOIS records → compile findings into actionable reports

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Authing User Pool ID and Access Key?
Log in to your Authing console, select your project or user pool, and you will find your User Pool ID in the basic info section. Generate your Access Key ID and Secret in the [Settings] → [Access Key] section.
Can I retrieve security audit logs through this server?
Yes. Use the get_audit_logs tool to retrieve a list of recent administrative and user actions, helping you maintain a clear trail for security compliance.
Is it possible to list organizations and their structures?
Yes! Use the list_organizations tool to retrieve all organizational units defined in your user pool, allowing your agent to understand your company's hierarchy.
How does CrewAI discover and connect to MCP tools?
CrewAI connects to MCP servers lazily. when the crew starts, each agent resolves its MCP URLs and fetches the tool catalog via the standard tools/list method. This means tools are always fresh and reflect the server's current capabilities. No tool schemas need to be hardcoded.
Can different agents in the same crew use different MCP servers?
Yes. Each agent has its own mcps list, so you can assign specific servers to specific roles. For example, a reconnaissance agent might use a domain intelligence server while an analysis agent uses a vulnerability database server.
What happens when an MCP tool call fails during a crew run?
CrewAI wraps tool failures as context for the agent. The LLM receives the error message and can decide to retry with different parameters, fall back to a different tool, or mark the task as partially complete. This resilience is critical for production workflows.
Can CrewAI agents call multiple MCP tools in parallel?
CrewAI agents execute tool calls sequentially within a single reasoning step. However, you can run multiple agents in parallel using process=Process.parallel, each calling different MCP tools concurrently. This is ideal for workflows where separate data sources need to be queried simultaneously.
Can I run CrewAI crews on a schedule (cron)?
Yes. CrewAI crews are standard Python scripts, so you can invoke them via cron, Airflow, Celery, or any task scheduler. The crew.kickoff() method runs synchronously by default, making it straightforward to integrate into existing pipelines.
MCP tools not discovered
Ensure the Edge URL is correct. CrewAI connects lazily when the crew starts. check console output.
Agent not using tools
Make the task description specific. Instead of "do something", say "Use the available tools to list contacts".
Timeout errors
CrewAI has a 10s connection timeout by default. Ensure your network can reach the Edge URL.
Rate limiting or 429 errors
Vinkius enforces per-token rate limits. Check your subscription tier and request quota in the dashboard. Upgrade if you need higher throughput.
