Adobe Commerce MCP server
Adobe Commerce is a flexible, scalable e-commerce platform providing comprehensive APIs for managing products, orders, customers, inventory, and the entire online store experience. With this MCP server, AI agents can manage catalogs, process orders, manage customers, configure pricing, and access sales analytics through natural language commands.
Setting up an MCP server
This article covers the standard steps for creating an MCP server in AI Gateway and connecting it to an AI client. The steps are the same for every integration — application-specific details (API credentials, OAuth endpoints, and scopes) are covered in the Authentication section on this page.
Before you begin
You'll need:
- Access to AI Gateway with permission to create MCP servers.
- API credentials for the application you're connecting (see the Authentication section on this page for what to collect).
Create an MCP server
Find the app in the catalog
- Sign in to AI Gateway and select App Catalog from the left navigation.
- Search for the application you want to connect, then select it from the catalog.
- Select Create MCP Server to start the wizard.
App Configuration
Confirm the Base URL for the API, then, under Tools, select the endpoints you want to expose. Select Next.
MCP Server Setup
- Enter a Name for your server — something descriptive that identifies both the application and its purpose.
- Enter a Description so your team knows what the server is for.
- Set the log level: choose Production Mode for terser logs, or Non-Production Mode for more verbose logs that can help with debugging.
- Select Next.
Authentication
Enter the authentication details for the application. This varies by service — see the Authentication section on this page for the specific credentials, OAuth URLs, and scopes to use.
Review
Look over the summary of your MCP server configuration, then select Create & Deploy. AI Gateway provisions the server and provides a server URL you'll use when configuring your AI client.
Connect to an AI client
Once your server is deployed, you'll need to add it to the AI client your team uses. Select your client for setup instructions:
Tips
- You can create multiple MCP servers for the same application — for example, a read-only server for reporting agents and a read-write server for automation workflows.
- If you're unsure which OAuth scopes to request, start with the minimum read-only set and add write scopes only when needed. Most application pages include scope recommendations.
Authentication
Adobe Commerce uses OAuth 2.0 authentication through integration setup. Configure OAuth in your Adobe Commerce admin to obtain credentials. Replace {commerce-instance} with your actual Adobe Commerce instance URL. In Adobe Commerce Admin, go to System > Extensions > Integrations and create a new integration to obtain your OAuth credentials.
| Value | Setting |
|---|---|
| Auth endpoint | https://{commerce-instance}/oauth/authorize |
| Token endpoint | https://{commerce-instance}/oauth/token |

Sync inventory across sales channels to avoid overselling. Configure low-stock alerts, set reorder points, and track stock movements.
Automate order status updates and configure shipping integrations. Manage returns and refunds systematically, and track order fulfillment metrics.
