Atera MCP server for AI agents.
actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Atera and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 86 Atera actions (48 reads, 27 writes and 11 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Atera credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Atera's limits and records every call.
100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

Set up
Connect Atera in three steps.
- 01
Add actionlake to Claude.
Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

Connect Atera.
API key. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

Top actions
The Atera API, shaped for agents.
The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 53 of Atera's 54 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Ready-made plans for Atera.
8 plans in the store. Install one and your agent runs it by name; the reply says which connections are still missing. A schedule can run a plan on a timetable. There are no triggers or webhooks, by design.
Report open ticket load per customer
Use it when An agent needs a per-customer breakdown of how many Atera tickets are currently open.
Onboard a new customer site
Use it when A new client has been signed and needs a customer record, folder and primary contact created in Atera.
A person decides
Create a new Atera customer customer name with primary contact contact email.
Summarise billable time on a ticket
Use it when Someone asks how much time has been logged against a specific Atera ticket and wants it recorded on the ticket.
Add and verify HTTP monitoring for a customer
Use it when A customer website or portal needs an Atera HTTP monitor created and confirmed working.
Review and archive stale price book items
Use it when The Atera price book needs pruning and a product should be archived after review.
A person decides
Archive price book item description (SKU sku), one of product count products. It will stop appearing on new quotes.
Offboard a departing contact
Use it when A contact has left a customer and their Atera record must be retired, with sign-off before deletion.
A person decides
Permanently delete Atera contact email at customer name. This cannot be undone.
Raise a ticket from an open alert
Use it when A monitoring alert needs turning into a tracked helpdesk ticket and then clearing.
A person decides
Delete Atera alert alert id (title) after raising a ticket for it. The alert record is removed from Atera.
Clean up decommissioned agents for a customer
Use it when A customer's Atera agent list has drifted from reality and dead machines need reviewing and removing.
A person decides

Questions
The Atera MCP server, answered.
Is there an Atera MCP server for Claude?
Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 86 Atera actions across custom fields, devices, tickets and rates, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Atera.
What do I need to connect Atera?
Atera API key. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "atera" } lists exactly what to paste.
Can an AI agent delete or change things in Atera?
Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 11 Atera actions are destructive, including delete an Atera contact, delete an Atera customer and delete an Atera alert. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.
Will an AI agent use up my Atera API limit?
actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Atera service file: 700 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (48 Atera actions can be), which never reaches Atera.
What does an Atera action cost?
One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (86 Atera actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Atera refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.
Which Atera API does it cover?
The Atera RMM & PSA API v3 at app.atera.com/api/v3. It is built from Atera's documentation as read on 19 September 2026. 86 actions in 11 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).
Can I combine Atera with my other systems?
Yes. ask joins Atera to HubSpot CRM or ServiceNow on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. Atera maps crm.company, which 227 other connectors also map.
Does actionlake keep my Atera data, and where?
actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 2 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Atera credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.
Which AI clients can use it?
Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
