AI access (MCP)

Setting up with Claude

Copy the token, paste the configuration, restart the client.

1. In NoteBay, under Settings, AI access, pick Read only or Read and write.
2. Show and copy the pairing token there. The Copy configuration button hands you the snippet with the token already filled in.
3. Paste the snippet into your client's MCP configuration.
4. Restart the client. Then unlock at least one folder.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "notebay": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://127.0.0.1:27431/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR-TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

If the connection is refused

• Is NoteBay running? No app, no server.
• Is the level set to Off?
• Is the token still current? After Regenerate token the client needs updating.
• Is the port taken? You can change it in the settings, and then the URL in the client has to follow.
