Quick Start

Use the hosted endpoint directly when the client supports authenticated streamable-http:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "socialdatax-youtube": {
      "type": "streamable_http",
      "url": "https://mcp.socialdatax.com/youtube/mcp",
      "headers": {"Authorization": "Bearer <SOCIALDATAX_API_KEY>"}
    }
  }
}

For command/stdio-only clients, use npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.socialdatax.com/youtube/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer <SOCIALDATAX_API_KEY>". See the files in examples.
