Documentation Overview
avanan-legacy-mcp
MCP server for the Avanan MSP SmartAPI (the "legacy" Avanan MSP tenant management
API — distinct from avanan-mcp, which targets the Checkpoint Harmony Email & Collaboration
HEC API).
Implements the Jan 2024 Avanan MSP SmartAPI Reference Guide:
| Group | Tools |
|---|---|
| Child MSPs | avanan_list_msp_partners, avanan_create_msp_partner, avanan_delete_msp_partner |
| MSP users | avanan_list_msp_users, avanan_get_msp_user, avanan_create_msp_user, avanan_update_msp_user, avanan_delete_msp_user |
| Customer tenants | avanan_list_tenants, avanan_get_tenant, avanan_create_tenant, avanan_delete_tenant |
| Licenses | avanan_list_licenses, avanan_list_addons, avanan_assign_license |
| Usage | avanan_get_monthly_usage, avanan_get_daily_usage |
Features
- Interactive tenant card (MCP Apps, SEP-1865):
avanan_get_tenantrenders as an interactive card in MCP Apps hosts (Claude Desktop/web) showing domain, status, deployment mode, license package, protected users, PoC dates, and add-ons. The card is read-only, neutral by default, and brandable viawindow.__BRAND__injection orMCP_BRAND_*env vars (MCP_BRAND_NAME,MCP_BRAND_LOGO_URL,MCP_BRAND_PRIMARY_COLOR,MCP_BRAND_ACCENT_COLOR,MCP_BRAND_BG,MCP_BRAND_TEXT). Plain-JSON behavior is unchanged in other hosts. Rebuild the embedded card HTML after editingui/withnpm run build:ui.
Configuration
| Env var | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
AVANAN_APP_ID | yes | Application ID provided by Avanan Support (x-av-app-id). |
AVANAN_TOKEN | yes | Token from the Avanan auth handshake (x-av-token). |
AVANAN_SECRET | yes | Shared secret used to compute the x-av-sig HMAC. |
AVANAN_REGION | no | us | eu | ca | ap. Defaults to JWT region claim, then us. |
MCP_TRANSPORT | no | stdio (default) or http. |
MCP_HTTP_PORT | no | HTTP transport port (default 8080). |
LOG_LEVEL | no | debug | info | warn | error (default info). |
In gateway mode, credentials are taken per-request from headers:
X-Avanan-App-Id, X-Avanan-Token, X-Avanan-Secret, optionally X-Avanan-Region.
Status
[!IMPORTANT] The
x-av-sigsigning algorithm is implemented as a best-guess HMAC-SHA256 because the MSP SmartAPI guide defers signing details to the parent Avanan API Reference Guide. Replace the body ofsignRequest()insrc/utils/client.tswith the exact algorithm before production use. The function is isolated so no other code needs to change.
