Postman

Create MCP Client

1. Open your Postman Desktop App.
2. Go to your desired Workspace.
3. Click the "New" button (usually located beside the Workspace title or in the sidebar).
4. Select MCP Client from the list of options.

Configure Server Endpoint

In the configuration panel, enter the connection details:

• Transport Layer Type: HTTP
• Server URL: https://dev-backend.thelinks.ai/api/v1/mcp

Add Authentication

The server requires a valid Bearer token. You can configure this in one of two ways:

Method 1: Auth Tab (Easy)Method 2: Headers (Manual)

1. Click on the Authorization tab in the MCP Client.
2. Set Type to Bearer Token.
3. Paste your Links MCP Key into the Token field.

(Postman will automatically attach the correct header for you).

1. Click on the Headers tab (next to Configuration).
2. Add a new row:
   • Key: Authorization
   • Value: Bearer <YOUR_MCP_KEY>

Important: You must manually type the word Bearer followed by a space before pasting your key.

Connect

Click the blue Connect button at the top right.

Postman will establish a handshake with the Links server. Once connected, the Tools panel in the middle will automatically populate with available functions (e.g., get-chart-of-accounts, search-deal-by-name).

Select a Tool

Click on any tool from the list (e.g., search-account-by-name).

The Payload section will automatically update to show the JSON schema required for that tool.

Fill Arguments

Enter the values for the arguments in the JSON editor. For example:

{
  "tenant_id": "<Your Tenant ID>",
  "name": "Cash"
}

Run & Inspect

Click Run Tool.

The result will appear in the output panel below, showing the real JSON data fetched from the Links Platform.
