MCP for WooCommerce Settings
General Settings
Enable MCP functionality
Turns the MCP endpoints on or off.
Access
The MCP endpoint is public. It returns only information that shop visitors can already see, and it cannot create, change or delete anything. It never signs in as a WordPress user.
MCP endpoint: https://your-site.com/wp-json/wp/v2/wpmcp/streamable
Note for Webtalkbot users:
To build a WooCommerce AI Agent in Webtalkbot, give it the MCP endpoint URL shown above. No token is needed.
Configuration Options
The settings screen at Settings > MCP for WooCommerce has five tabs:
- Settings: the Enable MCP functionality switch, and the Access card with your MCP endpoint URL
- Documentation: how to connect a client
- Tools: a switch for each of the 31 tools
- Resources: the search guide resource
- Prompts: the prompt list, currently empty
The Tools, Resources and Prompts tabs open only while MCP is on.
Access
While MCP is on, the endpoint is public, like the WooCommerce Store API:
- No token or login is needed, and the plugin never signs in as a WordPress user
- Every tool only reads; nothing can be created, changed or deleted
- It returns only storefront data: published products, variations, categories, tags, brands, attributes, approved reviews, shipping and tax rates, the payment methods offered at checkout, and published posts and pages
- It never returns orders, customers, users, e-mail addresses, store settings, or draft, private or password-protected content
Stopping Access
- Switch Enable MCP functionality off to close the endpoints
- Switch individual tools off on the Tools tab to hide them from the assistant
