Credentials

Set these per environment. See Connect an integration.

Setup

  1. Create a folk workspace: Sign up at https://www.folk.app/ - the free plan is enough to test the API.
  2. Generate an API key: In folk, open workspace settings → API (https://app.folk.app/apps/contacts/network/settings/api-keys) and generate a new API key (keys start with ‘FOLK’).
  3. Set the environment variable: Add FOLK_API_KEY to your .env.
  4. Verify access: Run the List Groups tool, then List People.

Provider notes

  • The API key is sent as Authorization: Bearer <key>
  • List endpoints return { data: { items, pagination } } and paginate with limit/cursor; pass pagination.nextLink’s cursor to continue
  • Rate limit headers (X-RateLimit-*) are returned on every response
Provider API reference.

Tools

Verify the connection

Call a read tool such as folk__list_people with arguments for your account. Confirm that the result comes from the intended account or workspace before enabling write tools.
