Convert any OpenAPI-enabled endpoint into an MCP server that AI assistants can use. This Actor bridges the gap between traditional APIs and AI agents by automatically creating AI-compatible interfaces for existing services.
Source: LangChain's OpenAPI wrapper
how does the OpenAPI to MCP Converter work?
- Input parameters such as:
- OpenAPI specification URL or file
- Authentication credentials (if required)
- Target MCP server configuration (host, port, etc.)
- Optional endpoint filters or selection
- Run the Actor
- The Actor will:
- Parse the OpenAPI specification
- Generate MCP-compatible endpoints
- Validate request/response schemas
- Deploy an MCP server ready for AI assistant integration
- Export connection info and server metadata for integration
