MCP CONNECTION

Connect CubeDrive to your AI tool with MCP

CubeDrive MCP lets approved AI tools connect to your CubeDrive data and workflows through a secure service URL and an API key. This guide shows how to create the key and add the connection in tools such as Codex.

Setup Steps

Create and connect your MCP Service API key

You only need three pieces of information: the CubeDrive MCP URL, your generated MCP Service API key, and the header name used by the AI tool.

1

Log in to CubeDrive

Sign in to your CubeDrive account and open Account > Preference, then find MCP Service API Key.

2

Create or refresh the API key

Click Delete/Refresh API Key if you need to generate a new key. Copy the key immediately and save it in a secure password manager or private secrets store.

The API key is displayed only the first time after it is generated. Do not publish it in documentation, screenshots, chat messages, or source code. You also need your organization's permission to get the API key.

Security Tips

Keep your key private

  • Copy the key only into trusted AI tools and secure secret storage.
  • Refresh the API key if it may have been exposed.
  • Use the header field for x-cubedrive-ak.
  • Do not share screenshots that reveal the full API key.
