Widen (Acquia DAM) MCP. Control your brand media without browsing folders.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Just plug in your AI agents and start using Vinkius.
Widen (Acquia DAM) MCP lets you search, audit, and manage your entire library of branded media assets conversationally. Instead of manually clicking through folders or remembering complex internal syntax, ask your AI agent to find a file by metadata, pull the necessary CDN link for web use, or even clean up obsolete content—all in one chat session.

Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 10 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Manually finding and linking brand assets is a massive time sink.
Today, getting the right asset means clicking into your DAM portal, navigating through top-level categories, then subfolders, filtering by date, and finally copying the correct CDN link. If you need 20 different files for a campaign page, that's twenty sets of clicks, two dozen copies, and one inevitable moment where you pull an outdated logo.
With this MCP, you just tell your agent: 'Get me all assets in the Q3 folder tagged with 'final_approved' and give me their embed links.' The task is done instantly. You get a clean list of everything needed for deployment.
Getting asset metadata details
Before this, if you found an image, the only way to check its technical specs (like DPI or original dimensions) was to download it and open a properties panel. If you needed to update that data, you had to find a separate 'metadata' tool and input all the fields manually.
Now, your agent runs `get_asset_details` on demand. It gives you the full technical record right in the chat. You can then use `update_asset_metadata` if those details need changing. The workflow is seamless.
What you can do with this MCP connector
Your brand assets are scattered across massive digital libraries. Finding the right logo version or the correct photo requires knowing specific folder paths and complex search queries. This MCP lets your AI agent handle that complexity. You talk to it like a person, telling it exactly what you need—whether that's listing every user with access or pulling the active embed links for a product shot.
The power comes from connecting these disparate functions: find an asset using internal criteria, then ask for its technical properties, and finally grab the CDN link. When you build complex automation chains across multiple MCPs via Vinkius, you can track every single step in detail using Vinkius AI Analytics. Nothing happens in a black box; you always know which assets were checked and how your budget is being used.
This means content creators can update asset metadata on the fly, marketing teams get instant links for web deployment, and administrators can safely audit user access or delete media they no longer need.
019d7622-a396-7220-a3a1-5c02025b39b2 How Widen (Acquia DAM) MCP Works
- 1 First, subscribe to this MCP and enter your Widen Access Token.
- 2 Next, connect it to your preferred AI agent (like Claude or Cursor).
- 3 Finally, tell your agent what you need—for example, 'Find all assets tagged with Q3 2024'—and the tool executes the request.
The bottom line is: You manage massive digital libraries through simple chat commands instead of clicking through complex web interfaces.
Who Is Widen (Acquia DAM) MCP For?
Creative Operations staff who spend hours manually searching for approved assets, or Content Managers needing to audit user permissions and clean up old media.
Needs to find the most recent brand logo variants quickly and ensure they pull the correct CDN embed link for a campaign landing page.
Uses the MCP to update asset metadata on hundreds of images, making sure every file has consistent keywords before publishing.
Periodically checks list_account_users to audit who has access and runs cleanup commands like delete_media_asset for retired content lines.
What Changes When You Connect
- Stop guessing how to find a file. Use
search_widen_assetsto locate assets instantly, even if you only know keywords or categories. - No need to copy and paste links. Using
list_cdn_embed_linkspulls all active web embed codes right into your chat window for immediate deployment. - Keep your data clean and compliant by running
delete_media_asseton obsolete assets, managing storage without manual file handling. - Verify permissions instantly. Running
list_account_usersgives you a full audit of who can access which parts of the DAM. - Never lose track of files again. You can view all contents within a folder using
get_category_contents, or check grouped assets withlist_collection_assets.
Real-World Use Cases
The Campaign Launch Check
A marketer needs the logo and product shot for a new ad. Instead of asking three different people, they ask their agent: 'Find all assets in the 'Q4 Product' category that contain 'logo' AND have CDN embed links.' The agent runs get_category_contents then list_cdn_embed_links, giving them everything needed to launch.
The Cleanup Audit
A DAM admin realizes the 'Legacy Archive' folder is full of unused assets. They ask their agent to list all saved collections and then use list_collection_assets on each one, allowing them to systematically flag files for deletion using delete_media_asset.
The Metadata Update
A content team just finished a photoshoot. They ask their agent: 'Update the metadata for all assets in Collection X with the tag 'Spring 2025' and set the creator to Jane Doe.' The agent executes update_asset_metadata across the board.
The User Access Review
An ops engineer needs to verify who has permission to view sensitive product images. They simply ask their agent, and it runs list_account_users, providing a clear roster of all authorized team members.
The Tradeoffs
Copying File Paths
Trying to find an asset link by manually copying the file path from the browser URL, which often fails due to complex CDN structures.
→
Always use list_cdn_embed_links. This tool pulls the active, web-ready embed codes directly for your chosen asset ID.
Over-Searching
Running multiple basic searches (by name, by date, by folder) and then having to manually cross-reference results in a spreadsheet.
→
Use search_widen_assets first. This aggregates criteria into one powerful internal search query, narrowing down the list efficiently.
Guessing Asset IDs
Knowing an asset exists but not knowing its unique ID (e.g., 'wid-1234'). You get stuck trying to locate it.
→
Start by using list_global_categories or get_category_contents to narrow down the folder, then use search_widen_assets until you find the correct ID for later actions.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this MCP if your core process involves managing digital assets—finding them, getting metadata, linking them up, or organizing their storage. You need this when you are working with a defined library of branded media and require conversational control over complex operations like listing users (list_account_users) or deleting files (delete_media_asset). Don't use it if your problem is simple file sharing (use cloud drive alternatives) or if the data lives on a completely different platform that doesn't manage its assets in Widen. If you only need to read basic file names, check if search_widen_assets handles it; otherwise, stick with this MCP.
