and runs locally over stdio, so no data leaves your machine except the calls it
makes to the Insito API on your behalf.
Requirements
MCP access is a paid feature. On the free plan the Settings → API keys
screen shows an upgrade prompt instead of the create form, and any existing
key stops working if a workspace drops back to free. Upgrade under
Settings → Plan in the dashboard.
Get an API key
The MCP server authenticates with a dashboard API key: a personal access token limited to the permissions you pick when you create it.1
Open the dashboard
Go to admin.insito.app and open Settings → API keys.

Create a key
Give it a name (e.g. “Claude Desktop”), choose its permissions and expiry,
click Create key, and copy the generated token. It looks like
insk_….3
Store it safely
You’ll only see the full key once. Treat it like a password. You can revoke
it anytime from the same screen.
Permissions
The first three are ticked by default. Delete surveys is off unless you
tick it. A key can never reach billing, members, integrations or other API
keys, whatever its permissions.
Expiry
Every key expires: after 90 days by default, or 30, 180 or 365 days if you choose. An expired key returns401 token_expired; create a new one and
update your MCP config. A key also stops working if its creator leaves the
workspace.
