The publisher's own server: Ably MCP by usefulapi

Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted Follow Up Boss connector that lets an assistant search leads, review calls, texts, tasks and deals, and add notes, tasks and deal updates.

What you can do
  • Search and read contacts and leads, check duplicates, and view custom fields, stages and users
  • Review activity: lead events, logged calls, text messages, tasks and appointments
  • Inspect deals, pipelines and stages, and run a lead source report by agent
  • Write to the CRM: send in a lead event, update a person, add a note, log a call
  • Create and update tasks, and create or move deals between pipeline stages
  • Check usage and manage the subscription plan
When to use it
Useful when you work in Follow Up Boss and want an assistant to answer questions about leads, follow-ups, tasks and pipeline deals, or to record notes, calls, tasks and deal changes without switching apps.
Requirements
Remote MCP endpoint; no local install. Sign-in uses OAuth, and the login page asks for a Follow Up Boss API key (Admin, API) with the permissions of its owning user. Add only the server URL to the client config, with no Authorization header. A free plan allows 50 tool calls per month; paid plans are billed per user.
Before you install
Write tools change CRM data: sending lead events, updating people, notes, calls, tasks and deals. Updating a person replaces all tags unless mergeTags is true, and replaces the full phones and emails lists; deal peopleIds and userIds also replace the full list. The API key carries the permissions of its user. Paid plans cost money and are billed through a checkout link; cancellation runs to the end of the paid period with no refund.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Follow Up Boss MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Ffollow-up-boss/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

  "mcpServers": {

README

Follow Up Boss MCP by usefulapi

Use Follow Up Boss from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — search people and leads, review calls, texts, tasks, appointments and deals, and add notes, tasks and updates. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own Follow Up Boss credentials.

Live endpoint: https://follow-up-boss.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/follow-up-boss

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://follow-up-boss.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http follow-up-boss https://follow-up-boss.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
json
{  "mcpServers": {    "follow-up-boss": {      "url": "https://follow-up-boss.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Follow Up Boss credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/follow-up-boss/

On first connect you'll provide your Follow Up Boss API key (Admin → API), which has exactly the permissions of the user it belongs to. They're validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you — no keys in config files.

Pricing

PlanPriceLimit
Free$050 tool calls / month
Pro (per user)$9/mo or $90/yr (2 months free)10,000 tool calls / month
Pro+ (per user)$39/mo or $390/yr (2 months free)100,000 tool calls / month

Each paid plan covers this server only. Ask your AI to run fub_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with fub_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with fub_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

Who the credential belongs to: the account (id, domain, owner) and the authenticated user. A cheap way to confirm the API key works. FUB: GET /v1/identity.

Takes no parameters.

fub_search_people

Search people (contacts/leads)

Search contacts and leads. Criteria combine with AND. Name filters are partial matches. Newest first by default. People in the Trash stage are excluded unless includeTrash is true. Not every field is returned by default — pass `fields` (e.g. "allFields" or a comma list) for more. FUB: GET /v1/people.

Get one person

Fetch one contact by id. Pass fields="allFields" to include custom fields and everything else. FUB: GET /v1/people/{id}.

Parametersidrequiredfields

fub_check_duplicate_person

Check whether a person exists

Check if a contact with this email or phone already exists anywhere in the account (even ones this user cannot see) and who it is assigned to. Use before adding a lead. FUB: GET /v1/people/checkDuplicate.

Parametersemailphone

fub_list_events

ParameterslimitoffsetpersonIdtoNumberfromNumber

fub_list_tasks

List tasks

Tasks (follow-ups, calls, showings…). Filter by person, assignee, type, completion, or due window (due="today"|"overdue"|"upcoming"). FUB: GET /v1/tasks.

ParameterslimitoffsetstatususerIdpersonIdpipelineIdincludeDeletedincludeArchived

fub_list_pipelines

List deal pipelines

Deal pipelines with their stages (the stage ids that fub_create_deal / fub_update_deal take). FUB: GET /v1/pipelines.

Parametersname

fub_list_stages

List contact stages

Contact lifecycle stages (Lead, Nurture, Past Client, Trash…) with people counts — the names fub_search_people and fub_update_person take as "stage". FUB: GET /v1/stages.

Parameterssortlimitoffset

fub_list_users

List users (agents)

Users in the account (agents, brokers, lenders) — the ids to assign people, tasks and deals to. FUB: GET /v1/users.

Parametersnamerolesortemaillimitoffset

fub_list_custom_fields

List custom fields

The account's contact custom fields: label, API name (customXxx), type and dropdown choices. Use the name as a key in customFields. FUB: GET /v1/customFields.

Parameterslabellimitoffset

fub_list_action_plans

List action plans

The account's action plans (drip campaigns): id, name and status. Gives the names for the actionPlanId values of fub_list_person_action_plans. FUB: GET /v1/actionPlans.

Parametersidssortlimitoffsetstatus

fub_list_person_action_plans

List action plans applied to people

Which people are on which action plan, with the status of each assignment (e.g. "Running", "Paused"). Give personId for one contact's plans, or actionPlanId for everyone on one plan. For many contacts, list each active plan's people (limit 100; page with offset until _metadata.total is covered) instead of one call per contact. Shows classic action plans only; Automations 2.0 are in fub_list_person_automations when that tool is listed. FUB: GET /v1/actionPlansPeople.

ParameterslimitoffsetpersonIdactionPlanId

fub_lead_source_report

Lead source report by agent

Count leads from lead sources (e.g. Zillow) per assigned agent, how many reached the closed stage(s) (conversion rate), and leads per lender user (e.g. Zillow Home Loans loan officers). Use it to count instead of paging through fub_search_people. The numbers approximate FUB's in-app Lead Source report, which has no API, not the Zillow Preferred or Zillow Home Loans dashboard metrics (including pre-approvals), which are not exposed by the public API, and cover only the people the API key can see (use an owner, admin or broker key for the whole account). At most 100 FUB requests per call (one per count). FUB: GET /v1/people totals, GET /v1/users.

ParameterssourcesrequireduserIdsclosedStagescreatedAfterincludeLenders

fub_send_lead_event

Send in a lead / lead event

Add a new lead or record activity on an existing one — FUB's documented way to create leads. FUB de-duplicates by email/phone (or use person.id to target a contact), routes the lead per Lead Flow, notifies the agent and runs action plans for Registration / Inquiry types. A 204 means the lead flow for this source is archived and the event was ignored. FUB: POST /v1/events.

ParameterstyperequiredpersonrequiredsourcesystemmessagepageUrlpropertypageTitleoccurredAtdescription

fub_update_person

Update a person

Update a contact's fields. CAUTION: `tags` REPLACES all tags unless mergeTags is true; `phones` and `emails` REPLACE the full list (send existing ones too). Setting contacted=true pauses action plans. source/sourceUrl cannot be changed after creation. FUB: PUT /v1/people/{id}.

ParametersidrequiredtagspricestageemailsphoneslastNameaddressescontactedfirstNamemergeTagsassignedTo+7 more

ParametersidrequirednametypepersonIdassignedToisCompletedassignedUserId

fub_create_deal

Create a deal

Create a deal in a pipeline stage (stage ids from fub_list_pipelines). Include userIds — a deal with no users is invisible to agents. FUB: POST /v1/deals.
