MCP

Give your agent UK gov Vehicle Enquiry API tools

Every UK gov Vehicle Enquiry API 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 UK gov Vehicle Enquiry API account for each tool call — you store no tokens.

// 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": "uk_gov_vehecle_enquiry_api",
      },
    },
  },
)

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

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()
// Every tool arrives with its own input schema — run one with mcp.callTool().

API PROXY

Call the UK gov Vehicle Enquiry API API directly

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

const resp = await pd.proxy.get({
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  accountId: "apn_xxxxxxx",
  url: "https://driver-vehicle-licensing.api.gov.uk/vehicle-enquiry/v1/vehicles",
})

// Any allowed UK gov Vehicle Enquiry API endpoint works here. Pipedream attaches the
// connected account's credentials to the outgoing request.
