Azure AI Document Intelligence MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Azure AI Document Intelligence and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 23 Azure AI Document Intelligence actions (11 reads, 8 writes and 4 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Azure AI Document Intelligence credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Azure AI Document Intelligence'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 Azure AI Document Intelligence in three steps.

  1. 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.

    https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp
  2. 02

    Connect Azure AI Document Intelligence.

    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.

    • api_keyDocument Intelligence resource key (KEY 1 or KEY 2)
    • hostWhere your Azure AI Document Intelligence lives: your host
    account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "azure_document_intelligence" }
    # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
  3. 03

    Make the first call. Check before a write.

    Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, check validates the call and prices it, for free.

    do    { action: "azure_document_intelligence.document_models.list" }# list all document models · read · 1 upstream callcheck { action: "azure_document_intelligence.document_models.build", input: { … } }# free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent

Try it

Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the Azure AI Document Intelligence actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

  1. Readread

    List all document models in Azure AI Document Intelligence and tell me what stands out.

    callsazure_document_intelligence.document_models.list

  2. Writewrite

    Builds a custom document analysis model in Azure AI Document Intelligence. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.

    callsazure_document_intelligence.document_models.build

Governance for Azure AI Document Intelligence

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

4 Azure AI Document Intelligence actions are destructive. These are all of them:

  • Deletes document modelazure_document_intelligence.document_models.delete
  • Mark the batch document analysis result for deletionazure_document_intelligence.analyze_batch_results.delete
  • Mark the result of document analysis for deletionazure_document_intelligence.analyze_results.delete
  • Deletes document classifierazure_document_intelligence.document_classifiers.delete

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

Questions

The Azure AI Document Intelligence MCP server, answered.

Is there an Azure AI Document Intelligence MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 23 Azure AI Document Intelligence actions, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Azure AI Document Intelligence.

What do I need to connect Azure AI Document Intelligence?

Document Intelligence resource key (KEY 1 or KEY 2). Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "azure_document_intelligence" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in Azure AI Document Intelligence?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 4 Azure AI Document Intelligence actions are destructive, including deletes document model, mark the batch document analysis result for deletion and mark the result of document analysis for deletion. 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 Azure AI Document Intelligence API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Azure AI Document Intelligence service file: 15 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (11 Azure AI Document Intelligence actions can be), which never reaches Azure AI Document Intelligence.

What does an Azure AI Document Intelligence action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (23 Azure AI Document Intelligence actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Azure AI Document Intelligence 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 Azure AI Document Intelligence API does it cover?

The Azure AI Document Intelligence API 2024-11-30 at your Azure AI Document Intelligence instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting (path /documentintelligence). It is built from Azure AI Document Intelligence's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 23 actions in 1 area, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my Azure AI Document Intelligence data, and where?

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to an hour, 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 Azure AI Document Intelligence 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.
