Deploying updated MCP tools for an existing draft

Introduction

If you've customised tools for your hosted MCP server and chose to save changes (rather than save & deploy) any changes won't be live until your draft is deployed. When you're ready to proceed, follow the steps detailed here.

Need to know

• When an updated draft is deployed, the existing deployed version becomes inactive, and the new deployment is live.

• Deploying an updated draft does not affect existing connections with AI assistants - these will pick up the new/changed tools when requests are made.

The steps

1

Access your MCP server deployments

Select the settings option (at the bottom of the navigation menu):

Then select the MCP servers option:

2

Deploy the draft

Click the ellipsis icon for the draft entry:

Then select the deploy option:

The draft status changes to deployed. If there was already a deployed version, this becomes inactive.

Once your changes are deployed, you can test the updated tools via the MCP servers page and/or your AI assistant.
