Before you connect

Questions about Immich.

The practical details behind the request, access and result.

Can I use Immich MCP if I don't host it myself?

No, this Connector requires you to have a self-hosted Immich instance running. You'll need to provide your own instance URL and API key to connect it to your AI agent.

Does the Immich MCP give the AI access to my private photos?

The AI only interacts with your library when you give it a specific command. It doesn't browse your photos on its own; it only performs the actions you request, like finding a specific album or uploading a file.

How do I connect my Immich instance to my AI?

Once you subscribe, you'll just need to enter your Immich Instance URL and API Key into your AI client's settings. From there, your agent can start managing your media.

Can I create albums using just my voice?

Yes, if you use a voice-enabled AI client, you can simply speak your request. The Connector will handle the creation of the album and the organization of your photos automatically.

Is this a replacement for the Immich app?

It's not a replacement, but a different way to interact with your data. You can still use the Immich web app and mobile app, but this Connector lets you manage everything through a chat interface.

Can I manage multiple users with the Immich MCP?

Yes, you can use the Connector to list users, create new accounts, or delete old ones. It makes managing permissions for your shared media library much faster.

How can I check if my Immich server is online and see its version?

You can use the get_server_info capability. It will return the current version of the Immich server and its operational status.

Is it possible to upload a photo directly from my computer using this server?

Yes! Use the upload_asset capability by providing the absolute local file path. The AI will handle the multipart upload to your Immich instance.

Can I create a new album to organize my photos?

Absolutely. Use the create_album capability and provide a JSON payload with the albumName. You can also manage existing ones with list_albums and update_album.
