Connect Kanera to anythingyour team already uses.
Use the REST API, webhooks, and MCP server to connect Kanera with the tools your team already depends on: project boards, chat apps, support queues, CRMs, internal dashboards, automation platforms, and AI agents.
Connect an MCP-compatible AI client with revocable OAuth and explicitly approved Read or Write access. Use a scoped service connection for unattended automation.
Connect the agent
you already work with.
Choose your client for exact setup steps. Use OAuth where supported, or follow the guide's API-key fallback, to work with the boards and notes your Kanera identity can access.
REST API, webhooks, and MCP
for workflows, reports, and agents.
Whether you want to sync work in real time, trigger external workflows, build internal tools, or let AI agents safely inspect and update work, Kanera gives you the foundation to make it happen.
Create, read, update, and manage work from outside Kanera.
Build custom workflows around boards, cards, comments, checklists, notes, attachments, custom fields, labels, activity, and assignments. Use Kanera as the source of truth for reporting tools, sync jobs, migration scripts, internal admin panels, and custom front ends.
- Full access to boards, cards, comments, checklists, notes, and attachments
- Custom fields, labels, activity, and assignments
- API keys with Read, Write, and Admin access levels
- Integration updates attributed clearly in card history
- Developer documentation and interactive reference
React when work changes instead of constantly polling for updates.
Send Kanera activity to other systems the moment it happens. Send updates to chat tools, trigger CI/CD workflows, update dashboards, sync external records, or keep another system aligned with Kanera in near real time.
- Choose which events each destination receives
- Review delivery history and retry failed deliveries
- Pause destinations and rotate secrets
- Near real-time delivery for sync and automation
- Multiple destinations per workspace
Give AI clients live access to the Kanera work their identity can reach.
Use OAuth for personal assistants, a scoped service connection for CI or cron, or an API key for local and self-hosted clients. Agents can search, summarize, create, and update work across accessible boards.
- OAuth, unattended service connections, and API-key access
- Boards across workspaces, plus standalone and guest boards
- Cards, checklists, comments, notes, assignments, and activity
- Read, Write, and Admin caps for service connections
- Hosted and self-hosted MCP endpoints
Kanera keeps AI optional and exposes a native MCP server to compatible clients. Personal assistants connect with revocable OAuth and inherit your board access. CI and server-side agents use service identities scoped to one workspace. Search and summarize work, or grant Write access for approved changes.
Build reports, sync data,
and run real integrations.
Because the integration is yours, you control exactly how it works: which tool is the source of truth, which events should sync, how conflicts are handled, and how external updates appear inside Kanera.
Real-time tool syncing
Keep Kanera connected with the tools your team already uses. Sync cards with Trello, send updates to Slack, connect work to GitHub, mirror support tickets, or keep any external system aligned with Kanera.
Custom reporting and dashboards
Pull structured work data from Kanera to build team reports, operational scorecards, leadership dashboards, or customer-facing status pages using cards, custom fields, labels, and activity.
Internal tools
Create lightweight internal apps that work with Kanera behind the scenes. Customer onboarding portals, support workflows, operations forms, or admin panels, without every user needing to open Kanera directly.
Workflow automation
Trigger actions in other systems when work changes in Kanera. Send alerts, update spreadsheets, start deployment workflows, notify account owners, or create audit logs as soon as activity happens.
AI-powered project operations
Let AI agents work with accessible Kanera boards. Summarize status, find overdue items, review cross-board assignments, prepare standups, or help project leads understand what needs attention.
Migration and sync jobs
Move data into Kanera, keep external systems aligned, or build custom import workflows. Create boards, cards, comments, checklists, custom fields, labels, notes, and attachments from any source.
Why teams use Kanera
as an integration hub.
Design the integration around your process. You control the mapping, sync direction, rules, exceptions, and user experience, not a generic connector that rarely matches how a team really works.
When integrations update Kanera, those changes appear for the rest of the team right away. Kanera's real-time collaboration layer keeps connected users in sync without requiring refreshes.
Updates made by integrations are recorded in Kanera's activity history, so teams can see what changed, when it changed, and where the change came from.
Choose the events each destination receives, review delivery history, retry failed deliveries, pause destinations, and rotate secrets. Built for operational use, not just quick setup.
Kanera's MCP server gives compatible AI clients structured access to live work. Agents use the same boards, notes, assignments, and activity as your team, not stale exports or copied summaries.
Five ways teams connect Kanera
to the rest of their stack.
Every team has its own way of working. Some want Kanera to be the source of truth. Some want to sync with another system. Some want AI agents to answer questions and help operate projects. Kanera gives you the building blocks to design the integration you actually need.
Map Trello cards to Kanera cards, preserve links between the two systems, sync due dates and labels, and decide exactly which updates should flow in each direction.
Turn Slack messages into trackable Kanera work. Create a card from a message, post a channel update when a card changes, or notify the owner when work becomes overdue.
Connect development work to delivery workflows. Link Kanera cards to GitHub issues or pull requests and update cards when development status changes.
Pull cards, custom fields, assignments, labels, status, and activity into a live dashboard for leadership, operations, or customers, without giving everyone direct access to every board.
Connect an AI agent with OAuth or a scoped service identity. It could summarize what changed this week, find blocked work, inspect overdue assignments, or prepare a standup summary.
Questions about Kanera integrations
Does Kanera have built-in AI?
No. Kanera focuses on being a fast, reliable workspace. Its MCP server lets compatible clients such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, and OpenCode work with live Kanera data instead.
Is this a technical API reference?
No. Developers can use the API docs when they need endpoint-level details.
What can I build with the REST API?
You can build custom workflows, reporting tools, sync jobs, internal apps, migration scripts, and integrations that create or update Kanera boards, cards, comments, checklists, notes, attachments, custom fields, labels, activity, and assignments.
What are webhooks used for?
Webhooks let external systems react when work changes in Kanera. You can use them to sync data, send notifications, update dashboards, trigger automations, or keep another tool aligned with Kanera.
What is MCP used for?
With Read access, an MCP-compatible AI client can search, inspect, and summarize Kanera work. With Write access, it can create and update cards, checklists, comments, notes, assignments, and other board content.
Personal connections follow the user's access across workspaces, standalone boards, and guest boards. An unattended service connection stays scoped to one workspace.
How does an AI agent connect?
Use browser-based OAuth for a personal assistant when the client supports it. Use an unattended service connection for CI, cron, or server-side automation, and an API key for local clients or those that only accept static credentials.
Hosted agent connections require a paid or trial Kanera plan. Self-hosted deployments expose their own MCP address.
Can Kanera sync with tools like Trello or Slack?
Yes, through integrations you build against the API and webhooks. You control how objects map, which events sync, and how conflicts and updates are handled.
Can integration updates be tracked?
Yes. Changes made by integrations are attributed in Kanera's activity history, so teams can see what changed and where the update came from.
Can I control which webhook events are sent?
Yes. Kanera lets you choose which events each webhook destination receives, review delivery history, retry failures, pause destinations, and rotate secrets.
Is Kanera only for prebuilt integrations?
No. The API, webhooks, and MCP server are designed for custom workflows that connect Kanera to your team's own tools, systems, and processes.
Build the workflow
your team actually needs.
Connect Kanera to your tools, automate the busywork, sync work across systems, and give AI agents a reliable source of truth.
