Documentation

Mailtani MCP Server

> Manage your email marketing directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible AI agent.

The Mailtani MCP server exposes your contacts, lists, segments, campaigns, emails, tags, custom fields, and event tracking as native AI tools — so your agent can send campaigns, enroll contacts, and track events without leaving the chat.


What you can do

CategoryTools
ContactsList, create (or upsert), update, delete
ListsList all, create, add contacts, remove contact
SegmentsList all, create with conditions, get matching contacts
CampaignsList, create broadcast, create sequence, create flow (all as drafts)
EmailsList sent emails, send one-off transactional email
TagsList all, create, delete
Custom FieldsList all, create
EventsTrack a custom event (triggers flows)

Example prompts you can use

code
"Create a broadcast campaign called 'Q3 Newsletter' targeting my 'Leads' list."

"Create a contact for john@acme.com, tag him as VIP, and send him the onboarding email."

"Track a purchase_completed event for sarah@example.com with plan=pro."

"Show me all contacts added in the last 7 days."

"Set up a 3-step welcome sequence for new signups with delays of 0, 3, and 7 days."

"Create a flow that sends an email whenever a contact is added to my project."

Authentication

The MCP server uses the same API key system as the Mailtani REST API.

Every request requires two headers:

HeaderValue
`Authorization``Bearer mk_YOUR_API_KEY`
`X-Project-Id`Your project ID (found in Settings → API)

Generate an API key at Settings → API Keys inside your Mailtani account.
