Prerequisiti

Le istruzioni di setup complete sono incluse nel connettore stesso (visibili nello store quando lo selezioni). Le variabili d'ambiente richieste sono:

HARVEST_ACCESS_TOKEN, HARVEST_ACCOUNT_ID

Step 1 — Ottieni le credenziali

This connector wraps the Harvest API v2 (api.harvestapp.com/v2).

Setup:

  1. Log into https://id.getharvest.com → bottom-left avatar → Developers → Create new personal access token.
  2. Copy the token and the Account ID shown on the same page (a 7-digit number like 1234567).
  3. Set both: HARVEST_ACCESS_TOKEN and HARVEST_ACCOUNT_ID.

Authentication: every request requires BOTH:

  • Authorization: Bearer ${HARVEST_ACCESS_TOKEN}
  • Harvest-Account-Id: ${HARVEST_ACCOUNT_ID}
  • A User-Agent header (Harvest API requires it — the adapter sets AnythingMCP (support@anythingmcp.com)).

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Step 2 — Installa l'adapter

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Step 3 — Aggiungi il connettore in Gemini

Gemini CLI legge i server MCP da ~/.gemini/settings.json (o %APPDATA%\gemini\settings.json su Windows). Aggiungi:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "httpUrl": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Ottieni la tua MCP API key da AnythingMCP → Profilo → MCP API Keys → Nuova Key.
  2. Salva il file e riavvia gemini.
  3. Esegui /mcp nella Gemini CLI — Harvest dovrebbe essere elencato come disponibile.
  4. Vertex AI Studio: passa https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp nell'array tools della richiesta con lo stesso header Bearer.

Gemini 1.5 Pro o 2.x supportano MCP? Sì — Gemini CLI ≥ 0.4 e la Vertex AI tools API accettano connettori MCP httpUrl con header Bearer.
