Developer dashboard

In the Developer dashboard, you can find the listing of your applications.

Applications are different integrations contained within one or more stores. You can create an application for each solution you implement in order to keep everything organized and have better management control.

Each application has a set of credentials and the possibility to configure its own notifications. Each card represents a created application and displays the application name and number, along with a button that directs you to the Application Details where you can manage it.

Create a new application

To create an application, you have three options available: with an AI agent from your code editor, with the Mercado Pago Developers Assistant, or manually from the integration Panel.

Create with AI

Create with the Assistant

Create manually

You can use our AI resources to create your application from your IDE or agent in 2 steps. The agent will take care of creating the application in the integration panel and guiding you through the entire configuration.

To do this, you have two options: installing the Mercado Pago Plugin, available for Claude Code and Codex, or configuring the Mercado Pago MCP Server, available for editors such as VS Code and Cursor. Follow the instructions for the option you choose.

Plugin

Claude Code

Run the following command to install the Mercado Pago plugin for Claude Code.

bash
claude plugin install mercadopago@claude-plugins-official

Once installed, run the /mp-connect command to authorize the agent's access to your Mercado Pago account.

Codex

Run the following commands to install the Mercado Pago plugin for Codex.

bash
codex plugin marketplace add mercadopago/mercadopago-codex-marketplace
codex plugin add mercadopago@mercadopago-codex-marketplace

Once installed, run the /mp-connect command to authorize the agent's access to your Mercado Pago account.

MCP

VS Code

Add the following configuration to your mcp.json file.

json
{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "mercadopago-mcp-server": {
        "type": "http",
        "url": "https://mcp.mercadopago.com/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add the following configuration to your mcp.json file.

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mercadopago-mcp-server": {
      "url": "https://mcp.mercadopago.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Finally, ask the agent to create your application in Mercado Pago. If you'd like, you can copy and paste the following prompt.

plain
I want to integrate with Mercado Pago. Recommend the ideal payment solution for my project, create the application, and guide me through the integration.

You can complete the integration with AI support. If you need help, check the Integrate with AI guide.

For each created application, a new card containing the name, number, and quality status of the application is automatically generated in the Developer dashboard.

Accessing credentials for an application you don't manage

You can request access to application credentials from other people and integrate solutions for accounts other than your own. To securely request access to credentials for an application you don't manage, follow the steps below:

1. In the Developer dashboard, click on the Request access to credentials button.
2. Click on the "Request credentials" button.
3. Enter the email associated with the account for which the credentials are being requested.
4. Check the "I'm not a robot" checkbox.
5. Click on Request credentials.

Once access to the credentials is granted, you can use them to integrate solutions. After the integrations are completed, remove the access permissions for the shared credentials and ensure the security of the data.
