Server details

Identifier: io.usefulapi/freightview
Transport: Streamable HTTP
Runtime: Web executable
Trust: Verified
Published: Nov 7, 2026

Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified that this server's namespace belongs to usefulapi.io, which also runs its endpoint. That identifies the publisher; it does not make the server's tools safe.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Connects an assistant to a Freightview account to rate, book, track and cancel LTL, parcel and truckload shipments.

What you can do: Read account users, saved locations and carriers, plus carrier services by SCAC code
Search shipments and read one shipment's status, items, selected quote, tracking events and documents
List a shipment's quotes with carrier, amount and expiry
Create and rate LTL, parcel and truckload shipment drafts without booking
Book LTL, parcel and truckload shipments, including freight-collect variants, and award, confirm or retract truckload awards
Cancel LTL, parcel and truckload shipments
When to use it: Useful when freight shipping runs through Freightview and you want an assistant to pull quotes, look up shipment status and tracking, or prepare and place bookings from a chat instead of the web UI.
Requirements: Remote hosted endpoint reached over streamable HTTP; no local install. Sign-in uses OAuth, and on first connect you supply a Freightview client ID and client secret from the Freightview API Integration settings, which the server stores per user. A Freightview account is required; the free plan allows 50 tool calls per month.

Before you install

Booking, awarding, confirming, retracting and cancelling tools change real freight commitments and carrier charges, and the server asks that they be run only after the user approves the specific quote or action. The Freightview client secret is handed to a third-party host. Paid plans are billed through a Stripe checkout link, and cancelling does not refund the current period.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open Freightview MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
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%2Ffreightview/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.

README

Freightview MCP by usefulapi

Use your Freightview account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Rate, book, track and cancel LTL, parcel and truckload shipments, and read account carriers and locations. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Live endpoint: https://freightview.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://freightview.usefulapi.io/mcp.
Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http freightview https://freightview.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": {    "freightview": {      "url": "https://freightview.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

{  "mcpServers": {    "freightview": {      "url": "https://freightview.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 Freightview credentials.

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

On first connect you provide a Freightview client ID and a Freightview client secret (Freightview → User settings → API Integration). The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.
