Requisitos previos

Las instrucciones de configuración completas están incluidas en el conector (visibles en el store al seleccionarlo). Las variables de entorno requeridas:

APOLLO_API_KEY

Paso 1 — Obtener credenciales

io API v1 (docs.apollo.io).

Setup:

  1. Sign in to Apollo.io → top-right avatar → Settings → Integrations → API → API Keys → Create New API Key.
  2. Name it ('AnythingMCP'). Copy the key.
  3. Set APOLLO_API_KEY.

Authentication: header X-Api-Key: ${APOLLO_API_KEY}. (Note: Apollo also supports the api_key query parameter and the legacy Authorization header; this connector uses the header form.)

Search vs Enrich: Apollo's central feature is searching its 275M+ people database (/v1/mixed_people/search). match endpoints enrich a known person/company by email/domain. People search is the entry point for prospecting workflows.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)
