to OpenAI Agents SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Smartsheet to OpenAI Agents SDK and start using all 6 AI tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code. No hosting, no server setup — just connect and start using.
Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Smartsheet MCP Server?
Connect your Smartsheet account to any AI agent and empower your team to query project configurations, internal spreadsheets, and custom reports seamlessly. Interact with your organization's grids through natural language without ever switching tabs.
What you can do
- Project Navigation — Easily map out your hierarchical structures calling
list_workspacesandlist_foldersto find correct document locations - Sheet Deep-Dives — Browse all your active spreadsheets using
list_sheetsand extract raw rows/columns instantly viaget_sheet_details - Reporting Overviews — Retrieve saved tabular aggregations automatically calling
list_reportsacross all configured company sheets - Identity Profiling — Test the connectivity and query authorized scopes by requesting the internal
get_current_usertool
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Personal Smartsheet Access Token
- Start using Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client to query the state of your tabular data
Stop manually hunting down the ID of a specific project table just to wire up your Python scripts. Let your AI agent read the workspace layout automatically.
Who is this for?
- Project Managers — rapidly audit how many tasks are active across cross-functional sheets or pull report overviews without exporting CSVs
- Data Engineers — query the actual sheet layout and row metadata directly from the code editor to build sturdy ETL scripts
- Team Leaders — have the bot read specific spreadsheets to generate weekly summary drafts completely autonomously
Built-in capabilities (6)

Frequently asked questions
Can the AI understand the raw tabular data of my spreadsheet?
Yes. When you call the get_sheet_details tool, the server returns the spreadsheet's metadata, including all column names, types (e.g., date, dropdown), and rows. The AI maps the internal IDs together to form a highly accurate contextual grid of your project.
Does my agent need to use a sheet ID?
No manual hunting needed! While the underlying tool does require a sheet ID, you can just tell your bot, 'Find our Onboarding Spreadsheet and read the rows'. The AI will first scan via list_sheets, match the textual name to the ID, and then naturally pull the targeted entity.
How do I list folders within a workspace?
Your AI agent will act autonomously. Ask it to 'check our Engineering workspace' and it will first fetch its workspace ID and intelligently map the nested sub-folders and sheets stored inside. You can instruct it to keep going deeper as needed.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
