# MCP and API

> Connect Groovin to your AI assistant, your scripts and your automation tools.

Groovin keeps LinkedIn and your CRM in sync. These pages show how to use it from outside the extension: let an AI assistant work on your LinkedIn conversations, or build your own automations.

You do not need to be a developer. If you can paste a command, or ask an AI assistant to write a small script, you have what you need.

## Three ways to connect

> [card] [MCP](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/mcp/connect.md)
>
> Your AI assistant uses Groovin directly. No code. Best to start with.

> [card] [REST API](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/quickstart.md)
>
> Your scripts or automation tools call Groovin.

> [card] [Webhooks](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/webhooks/overview.md)
>
> Groovin tells your tools when a message or a new connection arrives.

Which one should you pick?

| You want to | Use |
| - | - |
| Ask Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor about your LinkedIn conversations and CRM | [MCP](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/mcp/connect.md) |
| Run the same action regularly from a script, n8n, Make or Zapier | [REST API](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/quickstart.md) |
| React as soon as someone writes to you or accepts your invitation | [Webhooks](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/webhooks/overview.md) |

The MCP and the REST API are two doors to the same actions: the same arguments, the same answers, the same effects.

## Before you start

> [!WARNING]
>
> **There is no test mode.** Everything here acts on your real LinkedIn account and your real CRM, including the **Send** button on these pages. A call can send a real message to a real person.
>
> Read [What each call really does](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/side-effects.md) first. It takes two minutes.

You need:

* An active Groovin subscription.
* A connected CRM (Attio, HubSpot or Affinity).
* Your LinkedIn account connected in Groovin, for the LinkedIn actions.

## Next steps

* [Make your first call](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/quickstart.md) in a few minutes.
* [Give these docs to your AI assistant](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/ai-assistants.md), so it can write your integration for you.
* [Check the limits](https://docs.groovin.ai/reference/limits.md) that protect your LinkedIn account.
