Using Forward Geocoder via Model Context Protocol (MCP) server

MCP server lets you use Forward Geocoder within your AI workflows. Send API requests to trigger actions and receive real-time results. Take the received sessionId and use it to communicate with the MCP server. The message starts the Forward Geocoder Actor with the provided input.

$curl -X POST "https://actors-mcp-server.apify.actor/message?token=<YOUR_API_TOKEN>&session_id=<SESSION_ID>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
$  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
$  "id": 1,
$  "method": "tools/call",
$  "params": {
$    "arguments": {},
$    "name": "poidata/forward-geocoder"
$  }
$}'

The response should be: Accepted. You should received response via SSE (JSON) as:

$event: message
$data: {
$  "result": {
$    "content": [
$      {
$        "type": "text",
$        "text": "ACTOR_RESPONSE"
$      }
$    ]
$  }
$}
