Register an MCP Client Application

Asgardeo provides an application template with default configurations to register an MCP client with minimal effort. This template has been configured to create an OAuth application that adheres to the guidelines and best practices outlined in the MCP authorization specification.

To regiser an MCP Client application,

  1. On Asgardeo Console, go to Applications > New Application to navigate to the application template selection wizard.

    Select MCP client application template

  2. Select MCP Client Application. The application creation wizard will appear.

    Create an MCP client application

    The MCP application creation wizard includes the following fields.

    Parameter Description
    Name A unique name to identify your application.
    Authorized redirect URL The URL to which the authorization code is sent upon user authentication and where the user is redirected upon logout.
    Public client Keep this enabled if your MCP client application cannot securely store client secrets. (Eg: mobile apps, single page web apps etc).

    Note

    MCP Authorization specification recommends that MCP clients should be public clients with authorization code grant flow enabled. However, if your MCP client runs on a server side environment where you can keep a secret, you can untick the public client option.

  3. Click Create to complete the registration.
