What credentials do I need for this MCP?

You need a Client ID and Client Secret from the Rockwell Experience API program. These are entered into the MCP credentials on Vinkius.

Which products are included in the catalog?

The catalog includes the full Rockwell universe, such as ControlLogix, PowerFlex, PanelView, and Guardmaster products.

Can I find system integrators through this capability?

Yes, the list_partners capability allows you to browse the official partner directory, including System Integrators and distributors.

How does the authentication work?

The gateway uses OAuth 2.0 client credentials. Vinkius manages the connection, and the gateway validates your credentials on every call.

Does this provide documentation?

Yes, the search_catalog capability returns matched products along with downloads and documentation like manuals and firmware.

How do I get the Client ID/Secret?

Register your application for the Rockwell Experience APIs (via the Rockwell Automation Developer program / FactoryTalk Hub). After approval you receive a client key (ID) and secret pair that this MCP sends as HTTP Basic credentials on every gateway call.

I get 'Invalid client id or secret'. what does it mean?

The gateway's OAuth 2.0 policy rejected your credentials: either the key/secret pair is wrong, or your app registration isn't approved/active for the requested product. Verify both in your Rockwell Developer account.

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.

02
Search catalog
This capability searches the Rockwell Automation product catalog for part numbers, descriptions, and technical documentation. It returns matched products, firmware downloads, and manuals.

Real work

What teams actually run

Hardware Specification

An engineer asks the agent for the memory capacity or specs of a specific ControlLogix module.

Maintenance Support

A technician uses the agent to find the correct firmware download for a PowerFlex drive.

Vendor Sourcing

A buyer asks for a list of Gold-tier System Integrators to support a new project.

Inventory Verification

A procurement capability uses the agent to confirm part numbers and descriptions against the official catalog.

One connector, every AI

Rockwell Automation Experience APIs 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 Rockwell Automation Experience APIs 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.

Preview access · not provider authentication

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

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