Tengos provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) API that lets AI agents, IDE plugins, and custom tools interact with your Tengos data programmatically. Use the API to read transcripts, access summaries, manage glossaries, and more — from any compatible client.
Getting started
- Go to Settings > Integrations.
- Create a new API Key.
- Configure your MCP client with the provided endpoint and credentials.
- Authenticate using OAuth 2.0.
Available API scopes
Each API key is assigned one or more scopes that define what the key can access or modify:
| Scope | Permission |
|---|---|
conferences:read | List and view meetings |
transcripts:read | Read transcripts |
transcripts:write | Edit transcripts (e.g., rename speakers) |
translations:read | Read translations |
summaries:read | Read AI summaries |
summaries:write | Trigger summary generation |
glossaries:read | List and search glossaries |
API key management
You can create multiple API keys with different scope combinations — for example, one key for read-only access and another for a tool that needs to write.
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Create a key | Go to Settings > Integrations and click Create API Key |
| Assign scopes | Select the permissions this key should have |
| View last used | See when each key was last used |
| Revoke a key | Delete keys that are no longer needed |
| Categorize by client | Keys are categorized by client type: CLI, IDE, or Web |
Notes
- All API access is secured via OAuth 2.0.
- Revoke keys immediately if they are no longer in use or if you suspect unauthorized access.
