Apdex MCP Server

Introduction

The Apdex MCP Server exposes the capabilities of Apdex to any MCP-compatible AI host. Through this server, AI assistants can query incidents and changes, run impact assessments, drill into IA/RCA analysis, look up site and organization metadata, and answer Apdex knowledge questions — all using natural language.

Apdex is the experience-monitoring platform that measures user-perceived performance of core features across services, components, shards, and data centers, and correlates degradations with incidents and changes.

What You Can Do with Apdex MCP

Capability Example Prompt
Query incidents "List Apdex incidents between last Monday and today"
Query changes "Show changes for the Webex Meetings NGAPP component this week"
Run impact assessment "Assess the impact on core feature Access Webex URL in the last hour"
Get IA/RCA summary "Summarize the RCA for MEETINGS NGAPP ACCESS-WEBEX-URL on shard KS"
Get detailed IA/RCA data "Show the detailed IA RCA data for frustrated users on shard KS"
Look up site info "What are the details for site IDs 9612082 and 303790?"
Look up org display names "Resolve the display names for these org IDs"
Ask Apdex definitions "What's the Apdex definition of JMS-MAC?"
Ask Apdex knowledge "What is Apdex and how do I create one?"
Check Apdex alerts / dips "Any abnormal core feature Apdex dips right now?"
Inspect release radar toggles "Show feature toggle changes in the last hour"

Installation

Authorization

Apdex MCP authenticates through the AIOE MCP gateway using standard MCP OAuth discovery. Request access via the appropriate MyID group as described in the MCP overview.


Troubleshooting

401 Unauthorized — Confirm you have completed the MCP OAuth sign-in and belong to the required MyID access group.

Connection refused — Confirm https://aiops-mcp.webex.com/apdex/mcp/ is reachable from your machine. Check VPN or firewall rules.

No tools available in VS Code — Ensure the MCP extension is enabled and the server entry in mcp.json has no JSON syntax errors.
