FAQ from MCP Redmine
How do I get my Redmine API key?
Log in to Redmine, go to "My account", find "API access key" on the right side, then click "Show" or "Generate" to obtain the key.
What environment variables are required?
REDMINE_URL (your Redmine instance URL) and REDMINE_API_KEY are required. REDMINE_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIES is required for file upload/download operations.
Why are file uploads/downloads not working?
File operations require REDMINE_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIES to be set to a comma-separated list of directories where files may be read or written. This protects against path traversal attacks.
Can I change the API response format?
Yes, set REDMINE_RESPONSE_FORMAT to yaml (default) or json to control how API responses are formatted.
What if my Redmine uses a self-signed SSL certificate?
Set REDMINE_DANGEROUSLY_ACCEPT_INVALID_CERTS to 1 to disable SSL certificate verification. Only use this in trusted environments.
