Introduction

With API access and MCP Connect, you can connect your ZapX account to your own scripts or to AI clients like Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, or Cursor. The AI can then, for example, check the status of your services or — if you allow it — perform actions. Supported services include game servers, VPS, TeamSpeak servers, dedicated servers, and Discord bots.

Requirement: an active ZapX Pass, any tier from Plus upward. Without a pass, the page displays a notice with the View ZapX Pass button.

API and MCP: Connect ZapX to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor

Connect an AI client via MCP (recommended)

Open Settings → API Access.
In the MCP Connect card, find your MCP server address (panel address + /api/mcp) under MCP Endpoint. Copy it using Copy.
Add the address to your AI client as a remote MCP server or custom connector, then start the connection there (“Connect”). Under OAuth Config, you’ll find a ready-made configuration example that you can copy with Copy snippet.
Registration and sign-in happen automatically via OAuth. On the ZapX consent page, you can see what the application wants to access and choose its permissions. Read-only access is the default.
Confirm by clicking Allow. You’ll then be automatically redirected to your AI client, and the connection will be ready.

Connected applications appear in the same card under Connected Apps. There, you can change their Permissions or remove them using Disconnect.

Create API keys (for scripts and clients without OAuth)

Open Settings → API Access and click Create API Key.
Enter a Name (for example, “Monitoring key”).
Select the Account permissions and, under Services and permissions, choose which services the key can access. Alternatively, you can select Full access to all services in this account.
Click Create. The key starts with zapx_ and is displayed only once — copy it immediately and store it securely.
Send it with your requests as a bearer token. You can find all endpoints using the API Documentation button.

Revoke keys you no longer need from the list by clicking Revoke API Key.

Notes

Give an application only the permissions it actually needs. Read-only access is enough for read-only requests.
Never share API keys in chats, tickets, forums, or public repositories. If a key is exposed, revoke it immediately and create a new one.
If your ZapX Pass expires, API and MCP access will only work again once you have an active pass.
