# Pulse MCP Server

**Bring Pulse traffic intelligence directly into your AI workflows.**

We're introducing the **Pulse MCP server**, a Model Context Protocol interface for querying observed network traffic, requests, issues, PII signals, and aggregate metrics from Pulse-backed data.

**Released:** Feb 20, 2025

{% hint style="success" %}
**Available Now**: Pulse MCP server support is available for AI-assisted troubleshooting and analysis workflows.
{% endhint %}

## What's New

### MCP Access to Core Pulse Resources

AI assistants can query structured data across:

* **Connections**
* **Requests**
* **Traffic** (aggregates, availability, bandwidth, performance)
* **Issues** (policy and API errors)
* **PII** detections

### Rich Tooling for Fast Investigation

The server exposes count/list/get/histogram/frequency patterns plus specialized tools for:

* Request duration and tag analytics
* Traffic summaries, time-series, location and geo breakdowns
* Issue/error exploration
* PII summaries and distributions

### Filter-Driven Analysis

Use field-based and fuzzy filters (`endpointId`, `vendorId`, `path`, status, direction, etc.) to narrow investigations quickly.

### Time-Aware Querying

Built-in support for RFC3339 timestamps and configurable granularity (`minute` to `year`) makes trend analysis straightforward.

## Why It Matters

Pulse MCP turns raw traffic intelligence into conversational, automatable workflows for engineering, security, and operations teams:

* Ask natural-language questions about live or recent traffic
* Investigate incidents with reproducible query patterns
* Build AI assistants that reason over real production telemetry
* Reduce manual dashboard hopping during outages

***

## Example Outcomes

* "Which endpoints had the highest p99 latency in the last hour?"
* "Show issue frequency by error for this vendor in prod"
* "Count requests with auth failures and list affected paths"
* "Summarize detected PII types by endpoint"
