Introduction

The Flowcore MCP Servers provide a powerful bridge between your local environment and the Flowcore platform, enabling you to seamlessly query and interact with your own data—such as that from Globe Tracker.

What Are MCP Servers?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers are lightweight, local servers that act as intermediaries between your tools (like LLMs or IDEs) and the Flowcore platform. By running an MCP server, you can securely access, ingest, and query your organization’s data without exposing sensitive credentials or relying on external services.

Querying Your Own Data from Globe Tracker

1. Install the MCP Server
   The MCP server is available as an npm package. Install it locally in your development environment.

2. Configure the MCP Server
   Set up the MCP server with your Globe Tracker tenant information. This ensures that all queries and data operations are scoped to your Globe Tracker data core.

3. Connect Your LLM or Tool
   Point your LLM, IDE, or other compatible tool to the running MCP server. The server will handle authentication and communication with Flowcore on your behalf.

4. Query and Ingest Data
   Use your tool’s interface to query, analyze, or ingest data from Globe Tracker. The MCP server translates your requests into Flowcore API calls, returning results directly to your local environment.

Example Use Cases

• Data Exploration: Instantly query shipment, asset, or sensor data from Globe Tracker for analysis or reporting.
• Automation: Build scripts or workflows that automatically fetch and process data from your Globe Tracker data core.
• Integration: Connect your data to other tools, dashboards, or AI models for advanced insights.

Why Use MCP Servers?

• Security: Your credentials and data stay local.
• Simplicity: No need to write complex API integrations.
• Flexibility: Works with a variety of tools and LLMs.
