Exercise.com + Microsoft Copilot
Exercise.com gym and coaching software: members and staff, appointments and classes, scheduled occurrences and rosters, visits and check-ins, calendar, services, locations, availability schedules, waitlists, assessments, groups and logged workouts. Tenant API v4 on your own platform host.
Prerequisites
See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:
EXERCISE_HOST, EXERCISE_API_KEY, EXERCISE_ACCESS_TOKEN
Step 1 — Get credentials
The connector reads the Exercise.com tenant API v4 on your own platform host and can book and cancel visits. API access is a paid add-on: your Exercise.com account representative has to enable it first.
- Put your platform host, without
https://or a path, intoEXERCISE_HOST(for exampletrain.yourgym.com). - Create an API key under Account > Customize Platform > Developers > Add and copy it at once; it is shown only once. Paste it into
EXERCISE_API_KEY(sent as theAPI-TOKENheader). - Put the bearer token of the account the API acts as into
EXERCISE_ACCESS_TOKEN, without the word Bearer: a Personal API Token issued in the product, or the token provided with API access. Use a token of the owner or an admin to see every member. Schedules, assessment templates and logged workouts answer 401 unless both credentials are set. - Start with
exercise_com_list_usersfor member and staff ids, thenexercise_com_get_calendarwithaffinity=scheduleand a Unix-time window for bookings.
Things to know:
exercise_com_list_appointmentsneeds a date window infilter(q[start_time_gteq]andq[start_time_lt]); over the whole history it fails with HTTP 500.- Filters are Ransack predicates such as
q[status_eq]=completed. Paging usesperandpage(from 1); without them some lists return everything. - 401
Access deniedmeans a wrong host, a wrong or revoked token, or API access not enabled. - Packages, invoices and charges are not part of the v4 tenant API, so this connector does not cover them.
exercise_com_book_visitcan charge the member or use one of their packages, andexercise_com_cancel_visitmay apply late-cancel fees and notify the member.
Step 2 — Install the adapter
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d
Step 3 — Add the connector in Microsoft Copilot
Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide showsYOUR_SERVER_ID.
Microsoft Copilot uses MCP servers through agents built in Copilot Studio: you add AnythingMCP to an agent as a tool, then publish the agent to Microsoft 365 Copilot and Teams. Copilot Studio connects from Microsoft's cloud over Streamable HTTP, which AnythingMCP supports.
- In Copilot Studio, open your agent (or create one), go to Tools and choose Add a tool → New tool → Model Context Protocol.
- Enter a Server name (for example
AnythingMCP), a Server description that says what the connector does, and the Server URLhttps://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID. Copilot Studio uses the description to decide when to call the server. - Under authentication, choose API key, set Type to Header and the header name to
X-API-Key, then select Create. - In Add tool, choose Create a new connection, paste an MCP API key from AnythingMCP (MCP Servers → your server → API keys) and select Add to agent.
- Try it in the agent's Test pane: ask for something that needs the
Exercise.comtools. - Select Publish, then Channels → Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams, keep Make agent available in Microsoft Copilot selected and choose Add channel. See agent in Teams installs it for you; in Microsoft 365 Copilot, type @ and pick the agent.
Prefer per-user sign-in? Choose OAuth 2.0 → Dynamic discovery instead of an API key: each user then signs in to AnythingMCP the first time the agent calls it.
Self-hosting? Use your instance's public HTTPS address instead of https://cloud.anythingmcp.com. Copilot Studio connects from Microsoft's cloud, so localhost does not work.

FAQ
Which Copilot is this for? Microsoft 365 Copilot at work, through agents built in Copilot Studio. The Microsoft Copilot app for personal accounts has no option to add your own MCP server.
What do I need? A work account with access to Copilot Studio (a license or a trial) to build the agent. People who use it in Microsoft 365 Copilot or Teams need access to the agent: share it with them, or ask an admin to publish it to the organization. If your organization applies data policies to Power Platform connectors, they cover MCP servers too.
The agent doesn't call the tools. Check that the header name is exactly X-API-Key and that the key belongs to the same MCP server as the URL, and make the server description specific: Copilot Studio uses it to decide when to call the server. Publish the agent again after each change; in an open chat, type "start over" to get the new version.
