Hi Vikunja community!

I’m trying to connect to Vikunja Cloud through an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and I need to know the correct base URL for the API endpoints.

Could someone please clarify:

  • What is the base URL for Vikunja Cloud API?
  • Are there any specific authentication requirements I should be aware of?

I’ve checked the general API documentation, but it seems to be focused on self-hosted instances, and I want to make sure I’m using the right endpoint for the cloud service.

Thanks in advance for your help!

For Vikunja Cloud, the API prefix is https://app.vikunja.cloud/api/v1. You’ll have to use an api token to use the API.

Which MCP server are you using?

Thanks for the clarification, kolaente!

I initially tried to create a local server, but ended up going with GitHub - democratize-technology/vikunja-mcp: Model Context Protocol server for Vikunja task management. Enables AI assistants to interact with Vikunja instances via MCP. instead. This MCP server implementation works great for integrating Vikunja with Claude.

The API endpoint you provided is exactly what I needed for the cloud service. Much appreciated!
