TOPdesk + Gemini
TOPdesk ITSM: incidents, changes, assets, operators, persons and branches, with TOPdesk's FIQL query language for precise filtering. REST API, Basic auth with an application password.
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:
TOPDESK_URL, TOPDESK_USERNAME, TOPDESK_APP_PASSWORD
Step 1 — Get credentials
Use an application password, never the operator's own.
- In TOPdesk open Modules → Supporting Files → Operator Management, pick the operator the integration should act as, and on its card create an Application Password. TOPdesk shows it once.
- Give that operator exactly the permission groups the agent needs — TOPdesk enforces them per module, and a missing one produces a 403 rather than an empty list, which is at least honest.
- Set
TOPDESK_URLto your instance root (e.g.https://mycompany.topdesk.net, no trailing slash),TOPDESK_USERNAMEto the operator login name andTOPDESK_APP_PASSWORDto the generated value.
…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)
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 Gemini
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.
Gemini CLI reads MCP servers from ~/.gemini/settings.json (or %APPDATA%\gemini\settings.json on Windows). Add:
{
"mcpServers": {
"anythingmcp": {
"httpUrl": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID",
"headers": { "X-API-Key": "YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
}
}
}
- Get your MCP API key from AnythingMCP → MCP Servers → your server → API keys.
- Save the file and restart
gemini. - Run
/mcpinside the Gemini CLI —TOPdeskshould be listed as available. - Vertex AI Studio: pass
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_IDto thetoolsarray of your request with the sameX-API-Keyheader.

FAQ
Does Gemini 1.5 Pro or 2.x support MCP? Yes — Gemini CLI ≥ 0.4 and Vertex AI tools API both accept MCP httpUrl connectors with custom headers.
