# Manage MCP connections

> View, reconnect, and revoke OAuth clients connected to the hosted StoreInspect MCP server.

MCP clients connect to StoreInspect with OAuth. Each approved client is tied to your StoreInspect account and the scopes you approved during the connection flow.

## Open MCP settings

Manage connected MCP clients from the StoreInspect dashboard:

```text theme={null}
https://storeinspect.com/dashboard/settings/mcp
```

From MCP settings, you can:

* Copy the hosted MCP configuration.
* View connected OAuth clients.
* Revoke clients you no longer use.

## Revoke a client

Revoke access when you stop using a client, lose access to a device, or want to force a fresh OAuth approval.

After revocation:

* The OAuth consent is removed.
* Refresh-token access for that client is invalidated.
* StoreInspect blocks MCP tool calls from that client on the next request.

To reconnect, add StoreInspect MCP in the client again and complete the OAuth flow.

## MCP connections vs API keys

MCP connections are separate from REST API keys.

| Access type    | Used by                                                            | Authentication |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------- |
| MCP connection | ChatGPT, Claude, Codex CLI, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients | OAuth          |
| API key        | Server-side REST API integrations                                  | Bearer API key |

Do not paste StoreInspect API keys into AI clients. Use the hosted MCP server instead:

```text theme={null}
https://mcp.storeinspect.com/mcp
```

## Permission changes

MCP access is checked at request time. Plan changes, disabled API access, revoked consent, exhausted credits, or missing scopes can block tool calls even if a client was previously connected.

If a client still appears connected but cannot call tools, revoke the connection and reconnect it. See [MCP troubleshooting](/mcp/troubleshooting) for common errors.
