Steps

  1. Install the MCP Client module.
  2. Configure the MCP server URL.
  3. Establish the MCP connection.
  4. Discover available tools.
  5. Call tools from Mendix microflows.
  6. Display results in your UI.

The MCP Client module allows a Mendix application to connect to MCP servers and discover and use tools and prompts exposed by those servers. [docs.mendix.com]

When a user asks:

"Show all pending invoices"

The LLM decides to invoke an MCP tool, retrieves invoice data from the connected system, and returns the answer to the Mendix chat interface
