Prerequisites You Need Before Installing

Before installing Meeting BaaS MCP, make sure you have the basics ready:

These commands copy the code to your computer, download all needed packages, and prepare the server to run.

How to Start the Server

After installation, start the server using this command:

By default, the server will run on port 7017. You can access the MCP endpoint at:

You’re now ready to use the server with different tools.

How to Integrate Meeting BaaS MCP with Claude Desktop

To use Meeting BaaS MCP inside Claude Desktop, you need to modify Claude’s configuration:

1. Open the Claude Desktop configuration file:

vim ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

1. Add this Meeting BaaS MCP configuration to the file (replace /path/to/meeting-mcp with your actual folder and YOUR_API_KEY with your key):

"meetingbaas": {
  "command": "/bin/bash",
  "args": [
    "-c",
    "cd /path/to/meeting-mcp && (npm run build 1>&2) && export MCP_FROM_CLAUDE=true && node dist/index.js"
  ],
  "headers": {
    "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
  }
}

1. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

How to Use Meeting BaaS MCP Tools – Example: Create a Meeting Bot

You can create a bot to join and record your video meetings. For example, to create a bot for a Zoom call, send this request:

{
  "tool": "createBot",
  "params": {
    "meeting_url": "https://zoom.us/j/123456789",
    "name": "Team Meeting Bot",
    "entryMessage": "Hello everyone, I'm here to record the meeting."
  }
}

The bot will join the meeting automatically and start recording and transcribing.

How to Integrate Your Calendar with Meeting BaaS MCP

If you want to connect your Google or Microsoft calendar, start by setting up OAuth credentials. You can ask the server for guidance without any parameters:

{
  "tool": "oauthGuidance"
}

Then use your OAuth credentials to list your calendars:

{
  "tool": "listRawCalendars",
  "params": {
    "platform": "Google",
    "clientId": "your-client-id",
    "clientSecret": "your-client-secret",
    "refreshToken": "your-refresh-token"
  }
}

Finally, integrate a specific calendar by adding the calendar ID:

{
  "tool": "setupCalendarOAuth",
  "params": {
    "platform": "Google",
    "clientId": "your-client-id",
    "clientSecret": "your-client-secret",
    "refreshToken": "your-refresh-token",
    "rawCalendarId": "[email protected]"
  }
}

This allows you to view and manage upcoming meetings and schedule recordings automatically.
