π οΈ Help Needed: Custom MCP Server Integration with Vapi
Hey team! π
I'm trying to integrate my custom MCP server with Vapi but running into some issues. I followed the official docs, but unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work. I tested using Zapier as an MCP, and that worked fine, so the Vapi setup itself seems okay.
Could someone guide me or share a basic boilerplate/example of a custom MCP server setup that works with Vapi? That would really help me move forward.
Thanks in advance! π

Thanks for reaching out! To help you further, could you share what specific error or issue youβre seeing when your custom MCP server tries to connect with Vapi (e.g., error message, HTTP status code, or unexpected behavior)? This will help me provide a more targeted example or troubleshooting steps.

@Vapi Support Bot It shows Internal Server Error with status code 500
Set up the MCP server using vapi config and API key, run it locally with the provided CLI commands, and connect your application to communicate through this server..
