MCP

Give your agent Granola tools

Every Granola action is exposed as an MCP tool on Pipedream's remote server. Point a client at it with your end user's ID and Connect resolves that user's Granola account for each tool call — you store no tokens.

Pipedream Connect

// accessToken: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide
const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": "{project_id}",
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "granola",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// e.g. run Get Note:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "granola-get-note",
  arguments: {
    noteId: "Note ID",
    includeTranscript: true,

API PROXY

Call the Granola API directly

For an endpoint with no pre-built tool, the Connect proxy forwards your request to the Granola API with the connected user's credentials attached. You store no tokens and write no refresh logic.

Pipedream Connect

const resp = await pd.proxy.get({
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  accountId: "apn_xxxxxxx",
  url: "https://public-api.granola.ai/v1/notes",
})

// Any allowed Granola endpoint works here. Pipedream attaches the
// connected account's credentials to the outgoing request.

# The path segment is the target URL, URL-safe base64 encoded:
# https://public-api.granola.ai/v1/notes

curl "https://api.pipedream.com/v1/connect/{project_id}/proxy/aHR0cHM6Ly9wdWJsaWMtYXBpLmdyYW5vbGEuYWkvdjEvbm90ZXM?external_user_id={external_user_id}&account_id=apn_xxxxxxx" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
  -H "x-pd-environment: production"

SDK

Run Granola actions from your backend

Connect a user's Granola account once, then run Get Note on their behalf from your own code — TypeScript, Python, or plain HTTP.

Pipedream Connect

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "granola-get-note",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    granola: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    noteId: "Note ID",
    includeTranscript: true,
  },
})

from pipedream import Pipedream

pd = Pipedream(
    client_id="{oauth_client_id}",
    client_secret="{oauth_client_secret}",
    project_id="{project_id}",
    project_environment="production",
)

result = pd.actions.run(
    id="granola-get-note",
    external_user_id="{external_user_id}",  # any stable ID for this user in your system
    configured_props={
        "granola": {"authProvisionId": "apn_xxxxxxx"},
        "noteId": "Note ID",
        "includeTranscript": True,
    },
)

curl -X POST https://api.pipedream.com/v1/connect/{project_id}/actions/run \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-PD-Environment: production" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
