Product overview
What is Elastic Email MCP Server?
Elastic Email MCP Server is a secure Model Context Protocol bridge between MCP-compatible AI tools and an Elastic Email account. It translates natural-language requests into authenticated Elastic Email API actions, allowing marketers and developers to operate email workflows without navigating dashboards or writing each API call manually.
The server works with Elastic Email Marketing and Email API plans. Supported actions include creating, updating, pausing, and listing campaigns; sending transactional or bulk email; adding, uploading, or retrieving contacts; building lists and segments; targeting audiences; and reading account data.
