A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Apptio Target Process

What the server does

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard that enables AI assistants to interact with external tools and services through a unified interface. MCP servers provide these capabilities by exposing tools and resources that AI assistants can use to accomplish tasks.

  • Data Model Discovery — Explore and understand complex Targetprocess implementations
  • Powerful Querying — Use complex filters and includes to retrieve exactly the data you need
  • Entity Management — Create and update entities with proper validation
  • Relationship Exploration — Understand how different entities relate to each other
  • Error Handling — Robust error handling with retries and informative messages
  • Documentation Integration — Built-in access to Targetprocess documentation

Credentials and setup notes

  • Node.js 20 or later - npm
