Integrate Lovable with your tools using MCP servers

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that connects AI systems, like Lovable, to external tools, services, and data sources. By connecting Lovable to tools such as Notion, Atlassian, or Linear, the Lovable Agent can use real team context to generate more accurate code, prototypes, and documentation. When you connect an MCP server, Lovable can read structured data (like text from docs, issues, or diagrams) and, where supported, perform limited actions such as creating or updating items. Lovable includes several prebuilt MCP servers on all plans, with the option to add custom ones on Business and Enterprise plans.

Why connect MCP servers

In Lovable, MCP servers unlock two key capabilities:

Bring your existing context into Lovable.
The Lovable Agent can read your team’s documentation, tickets, and design files to build prototypes and flows aligned with your standards.
Connect your Lovable apps to your workflows.
The Lovable Agent can take follow-up actions in your connected tools, such as updating ticket statuses, adding prototype links as comments, or creating new items when supported.

Lovable becomes more powerful when it understands your team’s world, eliminating guesswork, speeding up iteration, and helping you go from idea to live app faster than ever.

Prebuilt MCP servers

Tool	Description	Example capabilities
Atlassian	Access your Jira issues and Confluence pages.	Turn product documentation into working prototypes. Lovable can read product documentation and linked Jira epics (PRDs, specs, architecture docs) to generate prototypes that match your team’s standards. Embed generated prototypes back into Confluence for feedback.
Linear	Access your Linear issues and project data.	Prototype from real issues and tickets. Lovable can read Linear issues, including descriptions and acceptance criteria, to generate functional prototypes. Attach resulting apps back to Linear for review.
Notion	Access your Notion pages and databases.	Build directly from your team’s Notion workspace. Lovable can read PRDs, design specs, or marketing briefs and turn them into working apps, landing pages, or prototypes. Embed generated Lovable apps back into Notion for seamless collaboration.
n8n	Access and power your apps with your n8n workflows.	Build workflow-rich apps with live data. Connect your n8n automations to Lovable to pull data from tools like HubSpot, Google Sheets, or Slack, and build user-facing apps powered by existing automations.

How to connect a prebuilt MCP server

To use prebuilt integrations with popular third-party apps and services:

Go to Settings → Integrations → Your MCP servers.
Select an MCP server (for example, Notion, Linear, or Atlassian).
Click Connect. Sign in and grant Lovable access to your account.

In addition to these steps, you need to do the following in n8n:

Go to Settings → MCP access and toggle Enable MCP access (requires instance owner or admin permissions)
For each workflow you want to expose, go to Settings in the workflow editor and toggle Available in MCP.

Custom MCP servers (Business and Enterprise)

For full flexibility, you can connect custom MCP servers to bring internal or third-party systems into Lovable. This is perfect for private APIs, internal CRMs, or custom data sources. Explore remote MCP servers, a curated list of high-quality remote MCP servers compatible with Lovable.

How to connect a custom MCP server

To connect a custom or internal MCP server:

Go to Settings → Integrations → Your MCP servers.
Click Set up next to New MCP server.
Server name: Enter a clear name for your server (for example, Internal CRM or Analytics API).
Server URL: Enter the address where Lovable can reach your MCP server.
Authentication:
- OAuth (default): Lovable uses OAuth by default. After you click Add & authorize, you’ll be prompted to authorize.
- Bearer token or API key: For servers that don’t support OAuth, you can authenticate using a bearer token or API key.
- No authentication: Connect without credentials if the server doesn’t require authentication.
Add server. The custom MCP server now appears in your list and can provide contextual data for builds.

Practical examples

Each connected app instantly becomes available as context for the Lovable Agent. You can interact with connected tools using natural prompts.

Scenario	Example prompt	Example outcome
A product manager connects Linear or Jira	Generate a prototype based on tickets in the current sprint.	Lovable reads issue descriptions and acceptance criteria to build aligned, testable UI.
A marketer links Notion or Confluence	Turn our Q4 campaign brief into a landing page.	Lovable uses the document as context to generate an on-brand, editable page.
An engineer links n8n or internal MCP	Build a workflow UI that lists users and allows deleting them.	Lovable builds an app that uses live data and workflows.

Security and permissions

MCP server connections are user-based and personal. You can review or revoke connections anytime in Settings → Integrations. For quick access on project level, click + in the prompt box and go to Integrations.

On Business and Enterprise plans, workspace admins and owners can manage which servers are available for all users:

Go to Settings → Privacy & security to enable or disable all MCP server access for the entire workspace.
Go to Settings → Integrations → Admin settings to enable or disable individual MCP servers.
