Team Collaboration

Learn how to collaborate with your team using Plugged.in workspaces and profiles

Overview

Plugged.in's multi-profile system enables teams to collaborate effectively by organizing MCP servers into separate workspaces while maintaining security and isolation.

Multiple Profiles

Create separate profiles for different environments or teams

Access Control

Manage who can access specific servers and collections

Prerequisites
  • Active Plugged.in account
  • At least one project created
  • Team members with Plugged.in accounts
Step 1: Create Team Workspaces
Foundation
Set up profiles for different team environments

Create Profiles

Create separate profiles for different purposes:

Settings → Profiles → Create New Profile

Organize by Purpose

Common profile patterns for teams:

  • • Development - Experimental servers and tools
  • • Staging - Pre-production configurations
  • • Production - Stable, tested servers
Step 2: Share with Team Members
Sharing
Make your servers and collections available to team members

Share Servers

Share individual servers or entire collections:

Server → Share → Copy Link or Make Public

Create Team Collections

Group related servers into collections for easier team onboarding and standardization.

Step 3: Manage Access Control
Security
Control who can access and use your shared resources

Visibility Settings

Configure whether servers are public (discoverable) or private (link-only access).

API Key Management

Generate and manage API keys for programmatic access:

Settings → API Keys → Generate New Key
Step 4: Team Best Practices
Guidelines
Follow these practices for effective team collaboration

Consistent Naming

Use clear, consistent naming conventions across all team profiles and servers.

Document Everything

Add detailed notes to servers explaining configuration, use cases, and any special requirements.

Version Collections

Use collection versioning to track changes and maintain compatibility across team environments.
