# SysAid MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to SysAid and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 89 SysAid actions (39 reads, 35 writes and 15 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the SysAid credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces SysAid's limits and records every call.

[Connect SysAid free](https://actionlake.com/console?start=sandbox) [See pricing](https://actionlake.com/pricing)

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.

`claude mcp add --transport http actionlake https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp`

the first call

```
do {
  action: "sysaid.end_users.list",
  intent: "check which SysAid account is connected"
}
# Get List of End Users · read · 1 upstream call
```

- 89 actions in one signed file
- 39 read look, never change
- 35 write create and update
- 15 wait for a yes destructive, confirmed first

Set up

## Connect SysAid 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 SysAid.
   Session login. actionlake opens the session and renews it when it expires. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.
   - `account_id` SysAid account ID (the [account] in https://[account].sysaidit.com; shown under your SysAid account details)
   - `client_id` App Key Client ID (SysAid > your profile > App Keys, or the Create App Key API)
   - `client_secret` App Key Client Secret, shown once when the App Key is created
   - `host` Where your SysAid lives: your host
   ```
   account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "sysaid" }
   # 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: "sysaid.end_users.list" }
   # get list of end users · read · 1 upstream call
   check { action: "sysaid.end_users.create", input: { … } }
   # free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent
   ```

Top actions

## The SysAid API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 38 of SysAid's 38 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Try it

## Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the SysAid actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

1. Read read
   Which SysAid tickets have been open the longest? Show me the ten oldest with their status.
   calls `sysaid.service_records.search`
2. Write write
   Create a New End User in SysAid. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.
   calls `sysaid.end_users.create`
3. Across systems read
   Which SysAid companies have invoices in ConnectWise PSA, and how many each?
   calls `sysaid.companies.list` `connectwise_manage.invoices.list`

Across your systems

## SysAid, joined to the rest of your business.

One `ask` fetches from SysAid and another system, joins the rows on the same customer on our side, and hands your agent the answer, not every row.

- Which SysAid companies have invoices in ConnectWise PSA, and how many each?
  `sysaid.companies.list` + `connectwise_manage.invoices.list`, on `crm.company` · [ConnectWise PSA](https://actionlake.com/connectors/connectwise-psa)
- Which SysAid companies have invoices in NetSuite, and how many each?
  `sysaid.companies.list` + `netsuite.views.invoices`, on `crm.company` · [NetSuite](https://actionlake.com/connectors/netsuite)

Also mapped by other connectors `identity.user` **517** `identity.group` **239** `crm.company` **227** `crm.contact` **192** `service.ticket` **62** `asset.asset` **40** `service.ticket_note` **5** `asset.license_record` **2**

ask

```
ask {
  intent: "which SysAid companies have invoices in ConnectWise PSA, and how many each",
  steps: [
    { action: "sysaid.companies.list", as: "co", input: {}, limit: 100, max_pages: 5 },
    { action: "connectwise_manage.invoices.list", as: "inv", input: {}, limit: 100, max_pages: 5 },
    { join: {
        left: "co",
        right: "inv",
        on: "crm.company",
        group_by: "co.name",
        select: ["co.name", "count(inv.id) as invoices"]
    } }
  ]
}
```

Example. Run it through check first: it validates the steps and prices them, and it is free.

Governance for SysAid

## Destructive actions wait for a yes.

15 SysAid actions are destructive. These are all of them:

- Delete End User `sysaid.end_users.delete`
- Delete Company by ID `sysaid.companies.delete`
- Delete an Asset `sysaid.assets.delete`
- Delete Agent `sysaid.agents.delete`
- Delete a Contract `sysaid.license_contracts.delete`
- Delete a Service Record `sysaid.service_records.delete`
- Delete a CI by ID `sysaid.cis.delete`
- Delete an application key `sysaid.app_keys.delete`
- Delete webhook subscriber by ID `sysaid.webhooks.delete`
- Delete a CI Relation For a Given CI ID `sysaid.ci_relations.delete`
- Delete a CI Relation Type by ID `sysaid.ci_relation_types.delete`
- Remove Agent from Groups `sysaid.agents.remove_from_groups`
- Delete an Application `sysaid.license_applications.delete`
- Remove End User from Groups `sysaid.end_users.remove_from_groups`
- Unlink Knowledge Base Article from Service Record `sysaid.service_record_related_items.remove_kb_article`

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.

do sysaid.end_users.delete confirm_policy: **human**

Delete End User?

**intent:** the user asked me to delete End User

run suspended · waiting for a named person · key _sysaid-agent_ cannot confirm itself

In the console, or from an emailed signed link.

a key for this connector

```
account {
  op: "keys.create", name: "sysaid-agent",
  allowed_actions: ["sysaid.*"], cap_calls: 2000,
  confirm_policy: "human_for_writes",
  approval_rules: [
    { match: "sysaid.end_users.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" },
    { match: "sysaid.companies.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" },
    { match: "sysaid.assets.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }
  ]
}
```

Illustrative. Scoped to SysAid only, capped at 2,000 upstream calls, every write confirmed, and the destructive ones approved by a named person.

Cost

## What SysAid costs on actionlake.

Every SysAid action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, `check`, `cost`, `account` and any call SysAid refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. 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.

- 1 upstream call per action all 89 SysAid actions
- 89 actions page each page of a long list is one call
- 39 reads can be cached a cache hit costs nothing
- 100,000 calls a month, free paid plans from US$49 a month for 250,000

Questions

## The SysAid MCP server, answered.

**Is there a SysAid MCP server for Claude?**

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 89 SysAid actions across agents, end users, service records and license applications, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by SysAid.

**What do I need to connect SysAid?**

SysAid account ID (the [account] in https://[account].sysaidit.com; shown under your SysAid account details), App Key Client ID (SysAid > your profile > App Keys, or the Create App Key API) and App Key Client Secret, shown once when the App Key is created. Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "sysaid" } lists exactly what to paste.

**Can an AI agent delete or change things in SysAid?**

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 15 SysAid actions are destructive, including delete End User, delete Company by ID and delete an Asset. 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 SysAid API limit?**

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the SysAid service file: 1,000 calls per 5 minutes per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (39 SysAid actions can be), which never reaches SysAid.

**What does a SysAid action cost?**

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (89 SysAid actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls SysAid 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 SysAid API does it cover?**

The SysAid Public API v1 (OpenAPI 3.1.0, https://{account}.sysaidit.com/connect/v1) at your SysAid instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting (path /connect/v1). It is built from SysAid's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 89 actions in 24 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

**Can I combine SysAid with my other systems?**

Yes. ask joins SysAid to ConnectWise PSA or NetSuite on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. SysAid maps crm.company, which 227 other connectors also map.

**Does actionlake keep my SysAid data, and where?**

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 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 SysAid 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.
