Security and team agents →Permissions
Each connection gets only what you tick.
A connection belongs to the person who authorized it, is limited to one Docsie organization and to the workspaces that person can already see, and exposes only the permission packs selected on the sign-in screen.

FAQ
Common questions
Does Docsie have an MCP server?
Yes. Docsie runs a hosted MCP server at https://app.docsie.io/mcp. Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, Windsurf, Devin and other clients that support remote MCP servers can connect to it with OAuth.
Which documentation platforms support MCP?
Docsie does: its MCP server lets the people who write documentation create, edit, translate and publish it, and run Docsie's apps, from their AI assistant or IDE. Connections sign in to a Docsie account and see only the workspaces that account can see.
What can an AI assistant do in Docsie over MCP?
Search and read your docs; create and edit articles; translate and publish versions; turn videos into guides, knowledge bases, courses, slides and transcripts; turn PDFs into help centers, courses, quizzes and slides; compare documents and videos; analyze videos; and check content against compliance rules.
Why can my assistant read but not edit?
Editing and running apps need the Workspace create and edit pack, which is off by default. Sign in again and tick it on Docsie's consent screen.
Do I need to install anything?
No. The server is hosted by Docsie. Clients without remote-server support can connect through the mcp-remote bridge with one npx command.
Which plans include MCP?
Every Docsie plan, including Free. Connecting, searching, reading and editing cost nothing extra; AI jobs such as video to docs, comparisons and analyses use your organization's AI credits.
