How do I connect my Knack data to my AI?

You subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius and provide your Knack Application ID and REST API Key. Once connected, your AI client can immediately start using the capabilities.

Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

This MCP works with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

Can I update existing records?

Yes, you can use the update_record capability to change specific fields in an existing record by providing the necessary field keys.

Is it safe to delete records through the AI?

The delete_record capability allows for permanent removal of data. You should use it with caution as these actions cannot be undone.

Do I need to know the API structure to use this?

No, your agent uses the get_object_schema and list_object_fields capabilities to figure out the structure for you.

How do I find the Object Key for a specific table?

Use the list_objects capability. It will return all data objects in your application along with their names and unique keys (e.g., object_1). Use these keys for all subsequent record operations.

Can I search records using multiple conditions?

Yes. Use the search_records capability and provide a JSON array of filter objects. For example: [{"field":"field_1", "operator":"is", "value":"active"}, {"field":"field_2", "operator":"contains", "value":"premium"}].

How do I know which fields to use when creating a record?

Use the list_object_fields capability with the target object_key. It will list all fields, their types, and their keys (e.g., field_1), which you must use as property names in your data JSON.

Connect Knack to ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini

Set it up once and it works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and any other client you love. It all runs safely in the background, so you can relax and focus on what really matters. Talk to your Knack data through your AI client.

MCP VERIFIED · PRODUCTION READY · VINKIUS GUARANTEED

Waiting for input…

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Curated set · 10 capabilities

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 03

Capability set02 / 03

05-07

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 10 available through Knack.

05
List objects
This capability pulls a list of all objects within your Knack application. It is the best way to find the Object Keys needed for other operations.
06
Get object schema
This capability returns the metadata and structure for a specific Knack object. Use it to confirm you are targeting the right table and field keys.
07
List records
This capability pulls a list of records from a specific Knack object. It allows your agent to browse the raw data in a table.

Capability set03 / 03

08-10

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 10 available through Knack.

08
Create record
This capability adds a new entry to a Knack object. You provide the data as a JSON string using the correct field keys.
09
Update record
This capability modifies an existing record. You only need to send the specific fields you want to change.
10
Search records
This capability finds specific records using custom filters. It uses the Knack Filter format to narrow down results based on field criteria.

Real work

What teams actually run

Quick Data Entry

Tell your agent to add a new lead or order instead of filling out a web form.

Inventory Auditing

Ask your agent to find all products with low stock levels based on specific field values.

Database Troubleshooting

Use the agent to check object schemas when a data sync or integration fails.

Customer Support

Have your agent pull up a customer's full history to resolve a ticket quickly.

Automate a task

Put Knack to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Knack works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Knack to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 10 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Knack, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Knack. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.
