What's new
Customer admins can now connect the Brightflag MCP to their own AI workspace (for example Glean, n8n, goose, Copilot or any other MCP client) without asking Brightflag for credentials. In Admin settings > MCP clients, add a client and copy the client ID and MCP URL into your AI workspace.

Who can use it
Available to all customers at no extra cost.
Admins set up connections.
Other corporate users sign in to the connected AI workspace with their Brightflag credentials. Their session renews automatically. They can't create or change MCP clients and should ask their admin.
Law firm users can't connect to the Brightflag MCP.
Set up a connection (admins)
Go to Admin settings > MCP clients. You'll see your existing clients, if any.
Add a new client.
Enter a name (for example, the name of the AI workspace).
Enter the callback URL. This is where your AI workspace sends users after they sign in. Add more than one if needed.
Optional: generate a shared secret, only if your AI workspace requires one.
Choose the permissions to give this client: Matters, Invoices, or both. Both are read only.
Select Add to generate the client ID.
Copy the client ID and the MCP URL into your AI workspace's connection settings. The connection uses Streamable HTTP with OAuth sign-in.
In the AI workspace, users sign in with their Brightflag credentials.
You can return to a client's details to see its client ID, MCP URL and callback URL(s). You can edit the callback URL there.
MCP URL by region
The page shows only the address for your account's region:
Good to know
Access is read only. A connected AI workspace can't create or change data in Brightflag.
Permissions currently cover Matters and Invoices only.
Only admins can set up clients.
The page is called MCP clients for now and will be renamed as other integrations are added.
This is separate from marketplace listings such as the Claude connector.
FAQ
Do I need to contact Brightflag to get credentials? No. Admins create them in Admin settings > MCP clients.
A colleague gets a sign-in error. Why? Check that your admin has set up the client, that you're using your Brightflag credentials, and that you're not a law firm user.
Which URL should I use? The one shown on the MCP clients page for your region.
