Hosting

HasData-hosted remote

Transport

Streamable HTTP

Endpoint

https://mcp.hasdata.com/mcp?apis=youtube

Authentication

HasData API key sent as the x-api-key header. The maintainer also documents a connector sign-in flow for clients that support it. No Google Cloud project or YouTube Data API key is required for this hosted server.

Requirements

• A compatible remote MCP client supporting Streamable HTTP and custom headers, or a supported connector sign-in flow.
• A HasData account/API key for header authentication.

Setup steps

1. Create a HasData account and obtain an API key, or use the connector sign-in flow if supported by your client.
2. Add https://mcp.hasdata.com/mcp?apis=youtube as a Streamable HTTP MCP server.
3. For header auth, set x-api-key from your client’s secret store; do not paste the key into shared config or chat.
4. Reload the connector and verify its four read-only tools.
