Pinpoint + Meta Muse
Pinpoint applicant tracking (ATS): jobs, job postings, hiring workflows and stages, applications, candidates, interviews, comments, scorecards, requisitions, users and company structure. JSON:API v1 on your company's pinpointhq.com subdomain, X-API-KEY header.
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:
PINPOINT_SUBDOMAIN, PINPOINT_API_KEY
Step 1 — Get credentials
The connector reads Pinpoint's JSON:API v1 on your company's own subdomain with an API key. Two write tools add internal comments and move applications between stages.
- Set
PINPOINT_SUBDOMAINto the part before.pinpointhq.comin the address you sign in at: foracme.pinpointhq.comenteracme. - A Pinpoint administrator opens Settings > API & Webhooks and switches on the Pinpoint API toggle. Without it no key can be created and calls answer 403.
- On the API Keys tab, create a key and paste it into
PINPOINT_API_KEY. Pinpoint recommends a separate read-only key for AI tools;pinpoint_add_commentandpinpoint_move_application_stageneed a key with write access. - Start with
pinpoint_list_jobs(statusopen), thenpinpoint_list_applicationswithjob_id, andpinpoint_get_applicationwithinclude=candidate,stagefor the details.
Things to know:
- Answers follow JSON:API: records are in
data[], related records requested withincludeare inincluded[]. Ids are strings. pagestarts at 1 andpage_sizedefaults to 100 (max 1000). Confidential jobs are hidden frompinpoint_list_jobsunlessvisibilitynamesconfidential.- The limits are 120 requests per IP per minute and 240 per 8 minutes; above that Pinpoint answers 429 with
Retry-After. One filtered list call withincludeis better than many single fetches. - Moving an application can trigger the automatic e-mails configured on the target stage. Comments are visible to the hiring team, not to the candidate.
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 Muse
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.
Muse adds remote MCP servers as custom connectors and signs in to them with OAuth.
- In Muse, open Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
- Paste the MCP server URL
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID. - Muse opens the AnythingMCP sign-in page: sign in and approve access.
- In a chat, ask Muse for something that needs the
Pinpointtools.
You can also set it up from a chat, on the web, in the iOS and Android apps or in WhatsApp. Send Muse this message:
Create a Custom Connector for a new remote MCP server, then connect to it:
Name: AnythingMCP
Transport: remote streamable HTTP
URL: https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID
Auth: OAuth
Self-hosting? Use your instance's public HTTPS address instead of https://cloud.anythingmcp.com. Muse connects from Meta's cloud, so localhost does not work.

FAQ
Where is Muse available? Meta currently offers Muse in the US and Canada, on the web, in the iOS and Android apps and in WhatsApp.
Does Meta review this connector? No. Meta doesn't review custom connectors. Muse sees only the tools you switched on for this MCP server in AnythingMCP, and you can disconnect it anytime under Settings → Connectors.
