What is SharePoint MCP?

SharePoint MCP is a modular .NET server that exposes Microsoft Graph API and Semantic Kernel capabilities to provide AI-driven access to SharePoint Online data. It acts as a central hub for search functionality, using app-only authentication and a separate client interface such as Gemini AI for user interaction.

How to use SharePoint MCP?

Set up the three-module architecture: deploy the .NET MCP Server (configured with Semantic Kernel), register an Azure AD application with Graph API permissions (e.g., Sites.Read.All) and store the client secret securely, then build an MCP Client (e.g., using Gemini AI SDK) that calls the server’s /api/sharepoint/search endpoint with user queries. No specific commands or config keys are detailed beyond this workflow.
