}You can run a production-ready MCP server that gives Claude access to QuickBooks Online data, enabling natural language queries for customers, invoices, accounts, transactions, and more. This guide shows practical ways to install, configure, and run the server in different environments so you can choose the setup that fits your workflow.
How to use
Start by choosing a run mode or environment that matches your needs: local development with a simple npm-based setup, a full development checkout for customization, or a production-ready AWS-backed deployment with shared credentials. Once the server is running, you connect to it using an MCP client integration configured to use the provided command and arguments. You can then issue natural language requests like querying customers, pulling financial reports, or examining account transactions. The server handles authentication, token refresh, and persistence so you can focus on building conversational capabilities around your QuickBooks data.
Additional usage notes
The server provides a consistent interface for performing common QuickBooks operations through Tools like query, list_accounts, and get_profit_loss. It manages OAuth tokens automatically and persists credentials to your chosen storage (local file or AWS Secrets Manager). If you run into authentication issues, re-authenticating with the provided tool will refresh tokens and restore access.
