Semji connects to Strapi through your instance’s MCP endpoint. You provide the endpoint URL and an admin token; Semji sends the token as a bearer credential on every request. Once connected, Semji’s AI agents can read and update content in Strapi. Semji uses Strapi’s built-in MCP server — see the Strapi MCP server documentation for how to enable it on your instance. Compatible from Strapi 5.47.0.

Prerequisites

  • A Strapi 5.47.0 or newer instance exposing its MCP endpoint.
  • The MCP endpoint served over HTTPS, reachable from the public internet, at a URL ending in /mcp (e.g. https://your-cms.example.com/mcp).
  • An admin token for that endpoint, created as described in the Strapi MCP server documentation. Semji sends it as Authorization: Bearer <token> on every request.
  • You are a workspace owner in Semji. The connection is shared with the whole workspace.
Availability of the Strapi integration depends on your Semji plan. If the Connect button opens an upgrade dialog instead, contact your account manager.

Connect from Semji

1

Open the CMS integrations

In Semji, go to Settings → Integrations, open the CMS tab, and click Connect on the Strapi row.
2

Enter your MCP endpoint and token

Fill in the two fields:
  • MCP server URL — your Strapi MCP endpoint, e.g. https://your-cms.example.com/mcp. It must use HTTPS and end with /mcp.
  • Admin token — the token from your Strapi instance.
3

Connect

Click Connect. The Strapi row now shows as connected for the whole workspace.
Semji does not test the token or the endpoint when you connect — a mistyped token or unreachable URL still shows as “Connected”. Verify the connection by asking an AI agent to list content from Strapi: if the agent reports that no Strapi tools are available or hits an authentication error, reconnect with a corrected token, or set up the connection again with the right URL.

What Semji can do once connected

The available actions are provided by your Strapi MCP endpoint — typically reading and updating content. AI agents discover the available tools at run time, and Semji’s publishing agents never delete content, even when a delete tool is exposed.

Manage or disconnect

From Settings → Integrations → CMS, the Strapi row offers Disconnect, which clears the stored token for the whole workspace. Reconnecting asks for the token again. The MCP server URL cannot be edited in place — to change it, disconnect and set up the connection again with the new URL.

Firewalls and IP allowlisting

Your Strapi MCP endpoint must be reachable from the public internet. Semji’s servers reach the internet through a fixed set of outbound IP addresses. If a firewall, WAF, or anti-bot protection (Cloudflare, Akamai, Sucuri, …) sits in front of your site, it can block Semji’s requests — typically with a 403 Forbidden — before they ever reach your CMS, even when your credentials are correct. Allow the following Semji IP addresses:
Do not restrict access to your MCP endpoint to the IP list above alone. AI agent tool calls are executed from Semji’s AI provider infrastructure, whose addresses are not fixed — rely on the admin token for authentication, and use the IP list to exempt Semji from WAF or anti-bot challenges rather than as an exclusive allowlist.

Troubleshooting

Enter the full MCP endpoint URL, not your Strapi root URL — e.g. https://your-cms.example.com/mcp.
The connector could not be created. Check that the URL starts with https://, that the same URL is not already connected in this workspace, and that you are a workspace owner.
The token could not be stored. Make sure it is not empty and try again.
The stored token is wrong or revoked, or the endpoint is unreachable or blocked by a firewall. Verify the endpoint answers at its URL, check your WAF (see the firewall section above), then disconnect and reconnect with a valid token.
