What is the TomTom Parking Availability MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire urban mobility and parking auditing workflow with TomTom Parking Availability, the comprehensive source for real-time parking data. By connecting the TomTom API to your agent, you transform complex location searches into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly search for parking facilities, audit address metadata, and retrieve coordinate details without you ever touching a navigation app. Whether you are conducting logistics research or managing regional fleet constraints, your agent acts as a real-time mobility consultant, ensuring your data is always precise and localized.
What you can do
- Parking Auditing — Search for thousands of parking spots near a specific location and retrieve detailed metadata, including facility names and addresses.
- Location Oversight — Audit the exact geographic coordinates for specific parking facilities to understand local distribution instantly.
- Availability Discovery — Query detailed POI information for specific parking IDs to assist in deep-dive urban planning.
- Mobility Intelligence — Retrieve high-resolution location details to assist in regional logistics and fleet management.
- Operational Monitoring — Check API status to ensure your mobility research workflow is always operational.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my TomTom API Key?
Log in to the TomTom Developer Portal, create an account, and generate a new API Key in your dashboard. Copy and paste it below.
Does it support real-time availability?
Yes. The API provides real-time occupancy data for supported parking facilities where sensor metadata is available.
Can the agent search by city name?
Yes. Use the search_parking_spots tool and provide the city name or a general query. Your agent will return matching facilities in that area instantly.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
