Headless Automation
You can install Unblocked MCP for use in headless automation scenarios, such as within GitHub Actions, by using an API key.This connection method uses an API token that gives access to every document in your Unblocked team’s data sources. If your team has connected sensitive data, such as private Slack channels, the MCP tools will potentially return this data in its queries.A future version of MCP for Unblocked will allow specifying which data sources the MCP tools will be given access to.
