Frequently asked questions

What is the Linked API MCP server?

The Linked API MCP server is an Social Media Model Context Protocol server that lets Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot, and other MCP-compatible AI agents control LinkedIn accounts and retrieve real-time professional data. It exposes Linked API's capabilities as tools the AI can call directly from your editor or CLI.

How do I install Linked API MCP with Claude Code?

The fastest way is the MCPizy CLI: run `mcpizy install linked-api` and MCPizy will add the server to your `.claude.json` automatically. You can also install it manually by adding an entry under `mcpServers` in `.claude.json` with the command `npx -y @linkedapi/mcp` and restarting Claude Code.

Is Linked API MCP free?

Yes. The Linked API MCP server is free and open source (see the GitHub repository linked on this page). You may still need a Linked API account or API key to connect the server to the underlying service, but the MCP layer itself has no MCPizy subscription cost.

Does Linked API MCP work with Cursor and Windsurf?

Yes. Any MCP-compatible client works — including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor (via `.cursor/mcp.json`), Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot Chat, and custom agents built on the MCP SDK. The same install command targets all of them; only the config file path differs.
