6sense remote MCP server connector

  • Updated

The 6sense remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector in Optimizely Opal brings account intelligence from the 6sense Revenue Marketing Platform into Opal. Opal retrieves 6sense insights so you can research accounts, analyze campaigns, and prepare for meetings without leaving your workflow.

6sense Model Context Protocol (MCP) is in beta. 

The connector is read-only and provides the same data available through Revvy AI. Use it to review account insights and engagement, track 6sense Qualified Account (6QA) trends, analyze keyword and ad campaign performance, monitor website activity, and discover account segments. It does not modify 6sense data or include company and contact enrichment.

The 6sense remote MCP is managed by 6sense. For details, see 6sense Model Context Protocol (MCP) in the 6sense documentation.

First, an Opal administrator must connect the 6sense remote MCP to Opal. After connecting the MCP server, individual Opal users and agent builders can log in to 6sense to access their information from Opal. Administrators only need to connect the 6sense remote MCP once.

Connect the 6sense remote MCP to Opal

The first person to connect a third-party service to Opal should be an administrator of that service. Administrator access installs the complete set of tools, so Opal adds every available tool. If a non-administrator connects the service first, Opal installs only the tools that account can access.

Opal administrators connect and grant access to 6sense from Opal. After granting access, administrators select which tools to enable in Opal and optionally customize their display names.

Add 6sense connection

As an Opal administrator, complete the following steps:

  1. Go to Connectors in Opal.
  2. (Optional) Enter 6sense in the search bar to filter the connectors list.

  3. Click Connect on the 6sense tile. 

  4. Log in to your 6sense account. 

  5. Configure the connector.
  6. Click Allow access.

A confirmation message displays and you can close the pop-up window.

Configure Opal tools

After adding the 6sense connection, Opal prompts you to select which tools to enable and optionally customize their display names.

As an Opal administrator, complete the following steps:

  1. Deselect any tools you do not want to add to Opal.
  2. (Optional) Update any tool's display name.

  3. Click Finish. 

The 6sense tile displays Connect on the Connectors tab for Opal users to authenticate with their personal accounts.

To update the available tools or names, see Update tools.

Authenticate with 6sense

Each Opal user and agent builder logs in to 6sense individually to access their 6sense data from Opal. User-level authentication ensures you access only the data your 6sense account is authorized to view. When you have access to multiple 6sense instances, Opal keeps each instance's data isolated.

Before you begin, confirm that an Opal administrator has connected the 6sense remote MCP to Opal. Until an administrator connects it, the 6sense tile displays Contact admin instead of Connect and you cannot select it.

To authenticate, complete the following steps in Opal:

  1. Go to Connectors.
  2. (Optional) Enter 6sense in the search bar to filter the connectors list.
  3. Click Connect on the 6sense tile. 
  4. Log in to 6sense.

After you connect to 6sense, the 6sense connector tools your administrator added become available in Opal Chat, agents, and workflows.

6sense connector tools

The 6sense connector tools are available in Opal after an administrator connects the 6sense remote MCP to Opal and you log in to 6sense. The available tools depend on which tools your administrator enabled. For a full list of available tools and actions, see 6sense Model Context Protocol (MCP) in the 6sense documentation.

Update tools

To rename, add, or remove tools, an Opal administrator must delete the 6sense tools registry and re-add it. To do so, complete the following steps:

  1. Follow the steps in Delete a tool registry.
  2. Add 6sense connection.
  3. Configure Opal tools.

If you use Opti ID, administrators can turn off generative AI in the Opti ID Admin Center. See Turn generative AI off across Optimizely applications.
