## Remarks

**There is no secret field.** A credential header's value is
not sent; only the name of the configuration key the value is to be read
from is sent (`HeaderConfigurationKeys`). The value is resolved
through `IConfiguration` at runtime and is never written to the
database.

## Constructors

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest__ctor"></a> McpServerRequest\(\)

```csharp
public McpServerRequest()
```

## Properties

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_Description"></a> Description

Description.

```csharp
public string? Description { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)?

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_Enabled"></a> Enabled

Whether the server is enabled.

```csharp
public bool Enabled { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [bool](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.boolean)

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_Endpoint"></a> Endpoint

Server address. Only `http` and `https` are accepted.

```csharp
public required string Endpoint { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_HeaderConfigurationKeys"></a> HeaderConfigurationKeys

Credential request headers, as a map from the header name to the NAME
of the configuration key its value is read from, for example
`{"X-Api-Key": "Tracon:McpSecrets:acme:SearchKey"}`. Every name must
sit inside the caller's tenant key space. A response returns the map
unmasked: it carries no value. Absent or [null](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/keywords/null) keeps the
stored map; `{}` removes it.

```csharp
public IReadOnlyDictionary<string, string>? HeaderConfigurationKeys { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [IReadOnlyDictionary](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.collections.generic.ireadonlydictionary\-2)<[string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string), [string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)\>?

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_Headers"></a> Headers

Extra request headers, sent as given with every request to the server.
The values are stored as plain text, so a header whose name looks like
a credential (`Authorization`, `X-Api-Key`, `Cookie`, any
name ending in `-key`) is rejected with `400`: declare it in
`HeaderConfigurationKeys`. Send every header with its real
value on each save: a response masks the values as `***`, and a
value of `***` is rejected with `400`. Absent or
[null](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/keywords/null) keeps the stored headers; `{}` removes them.

```csharp
public IReadOnlyDictionary<string, string>? Headers { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [IReadOnlyDictionary](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.collections.generic.ireadonlydictionary\-2)<[string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string), [string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)\>?

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_OAuthAuthorizationMode"></a> OAuthAuthorizationMode

OAuth authorization flow.

```csharp
[JsonPropertyName("oauthAuthorizationMode")]
public McpOAuthAuthorizationMode OAuthAuthorizationMode { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [McpOAuthAuthorizationMode](/api/tracon.mcpoauthauthorizationmode/)

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_OAuthClientId"></a> OAuthClientId

OAuth client identifier.

```csharp
[JsonPropertyName("oauthClientId")]
public string? OAuthClientId { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)?

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_OAuthClientSecretConfigurationKey"></a> OAuthClientSecretConfigurationKey

Configuration key the OAuth client secret's value is read from. The
value itself is not sent; only the key's name is.

```csharp
[JsonPropertyName("oauthClientSecretConfigurationKey")]
public string? OAuthClientSecretConfigurationKey { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)?

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_OAuthEnabled"></a> OAuthEnabled

Whether OAuth authentication is enabled. While on,
`HeaderConfigurationKeys` may not name `Authorization`.

```csharp
[JsonPropertyName("oauthEnabled")]
public bool OAuthEnabled { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [bool](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.boolean)

#### Remarks

`[JsonPropertyName]` is given deliberately — same reason as
[McpServerDefinition.OAuthEnabled](/api/tracon.mcpserverdefinition/#Tracon_McpServerDefinition_OAuthEnabled): the camelCase policy
produces an unexpected result for a name like "OAuth" that starts with
two capital letters.

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_OAuthScopes"></a> OAuthScopes

Space-separated list of OAuth scopes.

```csharp
[JsonPropertyName("oauthScopes")]
public string? OAuthScopes { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [string](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)?

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_RequiresApproval"></a> RequiresApproval

Whether this server's tools require approval. Default [true](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/builtin-types/bool).

```csharp
public bool RequiresApproval { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [bool](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.boolean)

### <a id="Tracon_McpServerRequest_Transport"></a> Transport

Transport mode.

```csharp
public McpTransportMode Transport { get; init; }
```

#### Property Value

 [McpTransportMode](/api/tracon.mcptransportmode/)
