Frequently asked questions about Candid MCP
Can Insiro AI agents use Candid MCP?
Yes. Insiro connects AI agents to Candid MCP through its governed MCP gateway. Agents can answer questions in plain English over the data and refresh reports on a schedule using each person's own Candid MCP access, with read-only as the default and approvals for actions that change data.
How does Insiro connect to Candid MCP?
Candid MCP connects with OAuth. Each user connects their own account once; Insiro stores the credential encrypted and brokers it to the tool only at the moment of a call, so models never see it. Admins can also register a workspace-level connection.
Can I make Candid MCP read-only for agents?
Yes. In Insiro Governance, set Candid MCP to Off, Read only, or Read and write in a click. Write actions can require confirmation or owner approval by risk tier, and every call is logged with the user, tool, tokens and cost.
