FAQ from Upstash MCP Server

What Upstash products does the server support?

Redis, QStash, Workflow, and Upstash Box.

Do I need an API key, and how do I get one?

Yes. You need your Upstash account email and an API key. Create one at Upstash Console → Account → API Keys.

Does the server support readonly API keys?

Yes. When a readonly API key is used, every tool that would modify state is automatically disabled. Your agent can still read and query your account but cannot make changes. Upstash Box tools are not available with a readonly key.

What runtime and transport does the server use?

The server runs as a stdio-based MCP server executed via npx. It requires Node.js (or Bun) and communicates through standard input/output with the MCP client.

What telemetry does the server send?

The server sends anonymous diagnostic info with each request: the MCP server SDK version, your runtime version (Node, Bun, etc.), and basic platform info (OS and architecture). No account data, tool arguments, or results are included.
