03 · POLICIES AND AUDIT

Control access to SE Ranking.

After early access is enabled, connect the intended SE Ranking account, authorize your AI client and set policies for its tools.

Provider permissions and Arc0 policy both apply. Allow reads, require approval for selected writes, or deny destructive actions. The audit log records execution decisions.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How SE Ranking connects.

Connect SE Ranking using API key. OAuth grants the provider scopes shown during consent; API keys and other credentials retain the permissions configured at the provider. Arc0 stores credentials in its encrypted vault and does not pass them to the model. Disconnect to remove access through Arc0; revoke a key at the provider to invalidate it there. Token refresh and provider-side revocation depend on the authentication lane and provider.

The connection serves authorized calls through Arc0 MCP and REST. How Arc0 handles credentials →

05 · AI CLIENTS

Use SE Ranking with your AI client.

Request access to SE Ranking first. An Arc0 administrator must enable it for your organization before these actions appear. Then authorize your AI client separately. It only receives tools and accounts allowed for that identity.

SE Ranking with Any MCP client

Streamable HTTP

  1. Use a client that supports remote MCP over Streamable HTTP. Add the server URL below and choose OAuth.
  2. For a client without OAuth, use a self-bound API key with execute permission in the X-API-Key header. Store it in secret storage or an environment variable, outside source control. Never send both an API key and an OAuth bearer token.
  3. Use the MCP clients guide for the SDK transport example and Embedded identity for business-managed end users.

Full MCP setup and troubleshooting

After setup, ask your agent to find an allowed read action, load its schema, and execute it on the intended account. Check Activity for the receipt. A connected MCP client alone does not confirm a successful provider call.

07 · FAQ

SE Ranking and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Does SE Ranking work with Claude Desktop and Claude Code?

Yes, after early access is enabled for your organization and you connect the intended account. Use Arc0’s remote MCP endpoint with OAuth. Claude Code has a documented registration command; Desktop uses the generic remote-client setup.

Q02

Can I use SE Ranking with OpenAI Codex, ChatGPT and Cursor?

Yes, after early access is enabled for your organization and you connect the intended account. Codex and ChatGPT have setup instructions in Arc0’s MCP clients guide. Cursor uses the generic remote-MCP steps. Tool access remains scoped to the authorized identity.

Q03

Is this the official SE Ranking MCP server?

This is Arc0’s integration page, not a claim of an official SE Ranking server. Arc0 adds a shared connection, policy and audit experience across apps. Consult SE Ranking for its own current MCP offerings.

Q04

Which SE Ranking actions are supported?

6 registry-defined actions: 6 read, 0 write and 0 destructive. Provider permissions, access enablement and Arc0 policy determine what can execute.

Q05

Which permissions does SE Ranking need?

Connect SE Ranking using API key. OAuth grants the provider scopes shown during consent; API keys and other credentials retain the permissions configured at the provider. Arc0 stores credentials in its encrypted vault and does not pass them to the model. Disconnect to remove access through Arc0; revoke a key at the provider to invalidate it there. Token refresh and provider-side revocation depend on the authentication lane and provider.

Q06

Can I restrict writes in SE Ranking?

You can deny write and destructive actions or require approval. Provider scopes and Arc0 action policies are separate controls; a policy does not grant additional provider permissions.

Q07

What does SE Ranking through Arc0 cost?

See Arc0 pricing for current connectivity plans. The provider may require its own subscription or charge per request. Arc0 plan allowances do not make third-party data or paid actions free.
