Skyp supports API access so you can integrate with developer tools, AI assistants, and automation workflows. API keys are generated from your Settings page and give secure, revocable access to your Skyp account.
What are API keys for?
API keys let external tools and AI assistants interact with your Skyp account programmatically. The main use case is Skyp's MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, which allows AI tools like Claude Desktop to manage your campaigns, contacts, and analytics through natural language.
You might use an API key to:
Connect an AI assistant to create or manage campaigns on your behalf
Automate contact uploads or campaign actions via the Skyp API
Build custom integrations with your internal tools
Generating an API key
Go to Settings in the Skyp sidebar.
Click the API Keys tab.
Click Create API Key and give it a descriptive name (e.g. "Claude Desktop" or "Internal automation").
Your new key will be shown once — copy it immediately and store it somewhere safe.
Important: For security, the full API key is only shown at creation time. After you close the dialog, you won't be able to see it again — you'll need to create a new one if you lose it.
Managing your API keys
From the API Keys tab in Settings you can:
View all keys you've created, including their names and creation dates
Revoke any key at any time — this immediately invalidates it and disconnects anything using it
It's good practice to create separate keys for each integration so you can revoke individual ones without affecting others.
Connecting an AI assistant via MCP
Skyp exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI assistants like Claude interact with your account directly. Once you have an API key, you can connect a compatible AI client.
The MCP server URL is: https://app.skyp.ai/mcp
For full setup instructions, configuration examples, and a reference of available tools, see the Skyp MCP integration guide.
MCP integration is intended for developers and technical users comfortable with AI client configuration. If you need help getting set up, reach out via the chat widget.
