### Prerequisites

- Python 3.10 or higher
- Access to an Odoo instance (version 18.0)
- The [Odoo MCP module](https://apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/18.0/mcp_server) installed on your Odoo server
- An API key generated in Odoo (Settings > Users > API Keys)

### Install UV First

The MCP server runs on your **local computer** (where Claude Desktop is installed), not on your Odoo server. You need to install UV on your local machine:

<details>
<summary>macOS/Linux</summary>

```bash
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
```
</details>

<details>
<summary>Windows</summary>

```powershell
powershell -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
```
</details>

After installation, restart your terminal to ensure UV is in your PATH.

### Installing via MCP Settings (Recommended)

## Configuration

### Environment Variables

The server requires the following environment variables:

| Variable | Required | Description | Example |
|----------|----------|-------------|---------|
| `ODOO_URL` | Yes | Your Odoo instance URL | `https://mycompany.odoo.com` |
| `ODOO_API_KEY` | Yes* | API key for authentication | `0ef5b399e9ee9c11b053dfb6eeba8de473c29fcd` |
| `ODOO_USER` | Yes* | Username (if not using API key) | `admin` |
| `ODOO_PASSWORD` | Yes* | Password (if not using API key) | `admin` |
| `ODOO_DB` | No | Database name (auto-detected if not set) | `mycompany` |

*Either `ODOO_API_KEY` or both `ODOO_USER` and `ODOO_PASSWORD` are required.

**Notes:**
- If database listing is restricted on your server, you must specify `ODOO_DB`
- API key authentication is recommended for better security

### Transport Options

The server supports multiple transport protocols for different use cases:

#### 1. **stdio** (Default)
Standard input/output transport - used by desktop AI applications like Claude Desktop.

```bash
# Default transport - no additional configuration needed
uvx mcp-server-odoo
```

#### 2. **streamable-http**
Standard HTTP transport for REST API-style access and remote connectivity.

```bash
# Run with HTTP transport
uvx mcp-server-odoo --transport streamable-http --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

# Or use environment variables
export ODOO_MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http
export ODOO_MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0
export ODOO_MCP_PORT=8000
uvx mcp-server-odoo
```

The HTTP endpoint will be available at: `http://localhost:8000/mcp/`

> **Note**: SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport has been deprecated in MCP protocol version 2025-03-26. Use streamable-http transport instead for HTTP-based communication. Requires MCP library v1.9.4 or higher for proper session management.

#### Transport Configuration

| Variable/Flag | Description | Default |
|--------------|-------------|---------|
| `ODOO_MCP_TRANSPORT` / `--transport` | Transport type: stdio, streamable-http | `stdio` |
| `ODOO_MCP_HOST` / `--host` | Host to bind for HTTP transports | `localhost` |
| `ODOO_MCP_PORT` / `--port` | Port to bind for HTTP transports | `8000` |

**Example: Running streamable-http transport for remote access**

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "odoo-remote": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-server-odoo", "--transport", "streamable-http", "--port", "8080"],
      "env": {
        "ODOO_URL": "https://your-odoo-instance.com",
        "ODOO_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here",
        "ODOO_DB": "your-database-name"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### Setting up Odoo

1. **Install the MCP module**:
   - Download the [mcp_server module](https://github.com/ivnvxd/mcp-server-odoo/tree/main/odoo-apps/mcp_server)
   - Install it in your Odoo instance
   - Navigate to Settings > MCP Server

2. **Enable models for MCP access**:
   - Go to Settings > MCP Server > Enabled Models
   - Add models you want to access (e.g., res.partner, product.product)
   - Configure permissions (read, write, create, delete) per model

3. **Generate an API key**:
   - Go to Settings > Users & Companies > Users
   - Select your user
   - Under the "API Keys" tab, create a new key
   - Copy the key for your MCP configuration

## Usage Examples

Once configured, you can ask Claude:

**Search & Retrieve:**
- "Show me all customers from Spain"
- "Find products with stock below 10 units"
- "List today's sales orders over $1000"
- "Search for unpaid invoices from last month"
- "Count how many active employees we have"
- "Show me the contact information for Microsoft"

**Create & Manage:**
- "Create a new customer contact for Acme Corporation"
- "Add a new product called 'Premium Widget' with price $99.99"
- "Create a calendar event for tomorrow at 2 PM"
- "Update the phone number for customer John Doe to +1-555-0123"
- "Change the status of order SO/2024/001 to confirmed"
- "Delete the test contact we created earlier"

## Available Tools

## Resources

The server also provides direct access to Odoo data through resource URIs:

- `odoo://res.partner/record/1` - Get partner with ID 1
- `odoo://product.product/search?domain=[["qty_available",">",0]]` - Search products in stock
- `odoo://sale.order/browse?ids=1,2,3` - Browse multiple sales orders
- `odoo://res.partner/count?domain=[["customer_rank",">",0]]` - Count customers
- `odoo://product.product/fields` - List available fields for products

## Security

- Always use HTTPS in production environments
- Keep your API keys secure and rotate them regularly
- Configure model access carefully - only enable necessary models
- The MCP module respects Odoo's built-in access rights and record rules
- Each API key is linked to a specific user with their permissions

## Troubleshooting

<details>
<summary>Connection Issues</summary>

If you're getting connection errors:
1. Verify your Odoo URL is correct and accessible
2. Check that the MCP module is installed: visit `https://your-odoo.com/mcp/health`
3. Ensure your firewall allows connections to Odoo
</details>

<details>
<summary>Authentication Errors</summary>

If authentication fails:
1. Verify your API key is active in Odoo
2. Check that the user has appropriate permissions
3. Try regenerating the API key
4. For username/password auth, ensure 2FA is not enabled
</details>

<details>
<summary>Model Access Errors</summary>

If you can't access certain models:
1. Go to Settings > MCP Server > Enabled Models in Odoo
2. Ensure the model is in the list and has appropriate permissions
3. Check that your user has access to that model in Odoo's security settings
</details>

<details>
<summary>"spawn uvx ENOENT" Error</summary>

This error means UV is not installed or not in your PATH:

**Solution 1: Install UV** (see Installation section above)

**Solution 2: macOS PATH Issue**
Claude Desktop on macOS doesn't inherit your shell's PATH. Try:
1. Quit Claude Desktop completely (Cmd+Q)
2. Open Terminal
3. Launch Claude from Terminal:
   ```bash
   open -a "Claude"
   ```

**Solution 3: Use Full Path**
Find UV location and use full path:
```bash
which uvx
# Example output: /Users/yourname/.local/bin/uvx
```

Then update your config:
```json
{
  "command": "/Users/yourname/.local/bin/uvx",
  "args": ["mcp-server-odoo"]
}
```
</details>

<details>
<summary>Database Configuration Issues</summary>

If you see "Access Denied" when listing databases:
- This is normal - some Odoo instances restrict database listing for security
- Make sure to specify `ODOO_DB` in your configuration
- The server will use your specified database without validation

Example configuration:
```json
{
  "env": {
    "ODOO_URL": "https://your-odoo.com",
    "ODOO_API_KEY": "your-key",
    "ODOO_DB": "your-database-name"
  }
}
```
Note: `ODOO_DB` is required if database listing is restricted on your server.
</details>

<details>
<summary>Debug Mode</summary>

Enable debug logging for more information:

```json
{
  "env": {
    "ODOO_URL": "https://your-odoo.com",
    "ODOO_API_KEY": "your-key",
    "ODOO_MCP_LOG_LEVEL": "DEBUG"
  }
}
```
</details>

## Development

<details>
<summary>Running from source</summary>

```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/ivnvxd/mcp-server-odoo.git
