Setup
How do I connect Grok Bot to Linkedcamp?
To connect Grok Bot to Linkedcamp, ask your bot to add the MCP server https://mcp.linkedcamp.com/mcp, then sign in with your Linkedcamp API key when it asks. From your next message, Grok Bot can build campaigns, check results and draft replies, and Linkedcamp asks before anything destructive.
What you need
- A paid Linkedcamp plan and your Linkedcamp API key from Settings → Integrations → API.
- A Grok Bot account.
- On a Cursor team, your admin must allow the Linkedcamp server (teams can restrict apps and set an MCP server allowlist).
- 01
Ask your bot
In a Grok Bot chat, send: Add this MCP server: https://mcp.linkedcamp.com/mcp - 02
Let it set up
Grok Bot confirms the server and sets it up. - 03
Sign in
When Grok Bot asks you to sign in, finish the Linkedcamp sign-in in your browser: paste your API key on Linkedcamp's page and pick an access level. - 04
Ask a first question
For example: "Who am I connected as in Linkedcamp?" Tools are available from the next message.
Never paste your API key into the chat. You only enter it on Linkedcamp's own sign-in page.
What should I ask Grok Bot?
Start with a read-only question so you can see what the bot reads, then ask for a draft. Each prompt below can be copied straight into a Grok Bot chat.
Who am I connected as, and what can this key do?
List my active campaigns with acceptance and reply rates for the last 30 days.
Show unread replies across my campaigns and draft a reply to the three most recent positive ones. Don't send.
Create a draft campaign called Q1 Agency Founders, add an AI-generated 3-step LinkedIn sequence, and show me the readiness check before anything launches.
Check the health of my LinkedIn sending accounts: anything paused, invalid or at its weekly limit?
Safety
Safety and approvals
- Destructive tools (28 of 133) always ask for your confirmation first. Sending a message is a destructive tool: your assistant must ask, and you must confirm, every time.
- You choose the access level when you sign in on Linkedcamp's page: Read only (64 tools), Read and write (105) or Full access (133, pre-selected).
- Never available over MCP: billing, agency admin and impersonation, white-label settings, team invites and roles, stored credentials, connecting a LinkedIn account or entering PINs, CRM setup and API key rotation.
Troubleshooting
If Grok Bot and Linkedcamp don't connect
| Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|
| Disabled by team admin | Your Cursor team admin controls which apps and MCP servers are allowed. Ask them to allow mcp.linkedcamp.com. |
| Sign-in didn't finish | Ask Grok Bot to reopen the sign-in. |
| Tools missing | Send a new message after setup; tools load from the next message. |
| 401 or "unauthorized" | Copy the API key again from Settings → Integrations → API and reconnect. If the key was rotated, every client must reconnect. |
| 403 or "outside scope" | You signed in with Read only or Read and write. Reconnect and pick a wider access level. |
| Campaign won't launch | Ask the assistant to check the campaign's readiness (campaign_get returns _readiness) and fix what it lists. |
| AI step fails | The workspace needs an AI provider key (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Grok or DeepSeek) in Linkedcamp settings. |
| Campaign active but nothing sends | Ask the assistant to check the LinkedIn account (linkedin_account_get: isValid, isPaused, weeklyLimitReached). |
| A step type is refused | Some steps are plan-gated. Ask the assistant to run whoami and read _derived. |
| Tools don't appear | Start a new chat after connecting, and confirm the connector is enabled for that chat. |
