Opmanager Mcp Server

OpManager MCP Server

[](https://www.python.org/downloads/) [](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) []() [](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk)

A credential-less Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for ManageEngine OpManager REST API integration. This server enables AI assistants like Claude to interact with your OpManager infrastructure through natural language.

✨ Key Features

• 🔐 Credential-less Design: No hardcoded API keys - users provide host and apiKey per request
• 🔄 SSL Auto-Detection: Port 8061 → HTTPS, Port 8060 → HTTP (with manual override)
• 📡 85+ API Endpoints: Full OpManager API coverage for devices, alarms, dashboards, discovery, and more
• 🛠 Dynamic Tool Generation: Automatically generates MCP tools from OpenAPI specification
• 🌐 Multiple Transports: Supports stdio (Claude Desktop) and HTTP/SSE (n8n, web clients)
• 🐳 Docker Ready: Containerized deployment with Docker and Docker Compose

🚀 Quick Start

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/sachdev27/opmanager-mcp-server.git
cd opmanager-mcp-server

# Create virtual environment
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

# Install the package
pip install -e ".[http]"

Start the HTTP Server

uvicorn opmanager_mcp.http_server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 3000

Test a Tool Call

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/call \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "opmanager_get_allDevices",
    "arguments": {
      "host": "opmanager.example.com",
      "apiKey": "your-api-key-here",
      "port": 8061
    }
  }'

📋 Configuration

Environment Variables

Create a .env file (optional - for server defaults only):

cp .env.example .env

| Variable | Description | Default | |----------|-------------|---------| | MCP_SERVER_LOG_LEVEL | Logging level | INFO | | ALLOWED_HTTP_METHODS | Allowed HTTP methods for tools | GET,POST,PUT,DELETE,PATCH | | LOCAL_OPENAPI_SPEC_PATH | Path to OpenAPI spec | bundled openapi.json |

> Note: OPMANAGER_HOST and OPMANAGER_API_KEY are NOT configured server-side. Users provide these per-request for security.

Getting Your OpManager API Key

1. Log in to OpManager web console
2. Navigate to Settings → REST API
3. Generate a new API key
4. Use this key in your tool calls

🔧 Tool Parameters

Every tool accepts these connection parameters:

| Parameter | Required | Description | |-----------|----------|-------------| | host | ✅ Yes | OpManager server hostname | | apiKey | ✅ Yes | API key for authentication | | port | No | Server port (default: 8060) | | use_ssl | No | Force SSL (auto-detected from port) | | verify_ssl | No | Verify SSL certificates (default: true) |

SSL Auto-Detection

• Port 8061: Automatically uses HTTPS
• Port 8060: Automatically uses HTTP
• Override with use_ssl: true/false if needed

🌐 HTTP API Endpoints

| Endpoint | Method | Description | |----------|--------|-------------| | /health | GET | Health check with tool count | | /tools | GET | List all available tools | | /sse | GET | SSE connection for MCP | | /messages | POST | MCP message handler | | /call | POST | Direct tool invocation |

Health Check

curl http://localhost:3000/health
# {"status":"healthy","tool_count":60}

List Tools

curl http://localhost:3000/tools | jq '.tools[].name'

🤖 n8n Integration

1. Start the HTTP server on port 3000
2. In n8n, add an AI Agent node with MCP Client tool
3. Configure the MCP Client:

• SSE URL: http://localhost:3000/sse
• Messages URL: http://localhost:3000/messages

Example System Prompt for n8n

You are an IT operations assistant with access to OpManager for network monitoring.

When using OpManager tools, always include:
- host: "opmanager.company.com"
- apiKey: "your-api-key"
- port: 8061 (for HTTPS)

Available operations:
- List all devices: opmanager_get_allDevices
- Get device details: opmanager_get_device (requires deviceName)
- List alarms: opmanager_get_alarms
- Acknowledge alarm: opmanager_add_alarmNotes

🖥 Claude Desktop Integration

Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "opmanager": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "opmanager_mcp.main"],
      "cwd": "/path/to/opmanager-mcp-server",
      "env": {
        "LOCAL_OPENAPI_SPEC_PATH": "/path/to/opmanager-mcp-server/openapi.json"
      }
    }
  }
}

> Note: With Claude Desktop, you'll tell Claude your OpManager host and API key in conversation, and it will include them in tool calls.
