MCP Server

Tally MCP

Create and manage Tally forms, read submissions, and organise your workspace via the official Tally MCP server

The official Tally MCP server (api.tally.so/mcp) gives your Agent nodes full access to your Tally workspace through the Model Context Protocol. Agents can create forms from natural language descriptions, edit existing forms, browse workspaces, and retrieve submission data for analysis — all auto-discovered at connection time via tools/list. Authentication uses your Tally API key passed as a Bearer token. No OAuth setup is required.
