How do I connect Scrada?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your Scrada company ID, Scrada API key and Scrada API password.

Create the key in Scrada's web client → Settings → API Keys. The company ID is the GUID of the company that owns the key. Your key is used only to call the API on your behalf and to derive a private account id; it is never shown to anyone.

Claude claude.ai · Desktop

  1. Open Customize → Connectors, then click + Add → Add custom connector.
  2. Enter the name Scrada and this URL, then click Add:
    https://scrada.usefulapi.io/mcp
  3. Claude opens the login page: enter your Scrada company ID, Scrada API key and Scrada API password.
  4. In a chat, click + → Connectors and turn on Scrada.

Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.

ChatGPT chatgpt.com

  1. Open Plugins, click +, then Add custom MCP server.
  2. Enter the name Scrada and this URL, choose OAuth as the authentication, confirm the warning and create it:
    https://scrada.usefulapi.io/mcp
  3. ChatGPT opens the login page: enter your Scrada company ID, Scrada API key and Scrada API password.
  4. In Plugins, install Scrada, then choose it in a chat.

No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http scrada https://scrada.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scrada": {
      "url": "https://scrada.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "scrada": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://scrada.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add scrada --url https://scrada.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login scrada

Other clients

Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.

https://scrada.usefulapi.io/mcp

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Scrada company ID, Scrada API key and Scrada API password. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)scrada_usage_status
    Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
  • Request a missing featurescrada_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Scrada tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
  • Upgrade to Pro (unlimited*)scrada_upgrade
    Get Pro: unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 a month) on Scrada (the free tier caps monthly usage). Plans: "monthly" — $9/month; "yearly" — $90/year (2 months free). Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. *A fair use limit applies. For heavy use (near Pro's limit): "plus" or "plus_yearly" — Pro+, $39/month or $390/year, unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 100,000 a month); an existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Otherwise returns a short link to open in your browser (it opens Stripe Checkout); after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
  • Cancel the Pro subscriptionscrada_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's Scrada Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run scrada_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with Scrada in Claude or ChatGPT?

Read the booked journal lines of a period. Check the cash books and VAT periods. Look up a Peppol participant and a delivery status. Work through unconfirmed inbound Peppol invoices. Record a payment on a sales invoice. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official Scrada product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Scrada. The server calls the Scrada API with your own Scrada access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I connect Scrada to Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your Scrada company ID, Scrada API key and Scrada API password. See Before you connect for where to find them.

Do I put my Scrada key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Scrada company ID, Scrada API key and Scrada API password. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my Scrada credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Scrada API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Scrada.

Can the AI change my Scrada data?

Yes, if you approve it. 2 of the 20 Scrada tools can create or change data. The other 18 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month), for this Scrada server only. Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period. Run scrada_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run scrada_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run scrada_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a Scrada tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with scrada_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
