Setup
Setup guide
- 11. Open your Switchy workspace and navigate to Settings > Integrations. 2. Find Test app in the MCP directory and click Connect. 3. Because Test app uses no authentication, you'll see a confirmation screen immediately — click Authorize to finish. 4. Return to any Space and type '@Test app' in the message box to confirm the integration appears in autocomplete. 5. Send a message like '@Test app run action one' to invoke the first tool. 6. Check the AI's response to verify the action executed. 7. Repeat with '@Test app run action two' to test the second tool. Both actions return instantly because they don't call external APIs.
What teammates see: by default, memories from Test app are scoped to the Space (PROJECT visibility) - you can mark any memory PRIVATE or share it ORG-wide.

Example outputs
Illustrative - representative of the model's voice and quality, not literal recordings.
@Test app run action one to verify the basic functionality is working correctly
Action one executed successfully. The test returned a confirmation response indicating the MCP connection is active and the basic operation completed as expected. This demonstrates the MCP is properly configured and responding to requests through the Switchy workspace.
This example shows the simplest interaction pattern with the Test app MCP. Since no authentication is required, you can verify the integration immediately after adding it to your Space. Useful for confirming the MCP is reachable before building more complex workflows.
@Test app execute action two and show me what data it returns
Action two completed. The response includes sample output data demonstrating the second capability of this test MCP. The structure shows how this action differs from action one, returning a different format that your team can use to understand the MCP's response patterns before production use.
This example highlights the second distinct tool available in the Test app MCP. The output format here differs from action one, which is typical when an MCP exposes multiple operations. Review the actual response structure to understand what your prompts will receive.
@Test app run both actions in sequence and summarize what each one does differently
I executed both actions from the Test app MCP. Action one performed its designated test operation and returned a basic confirmation. Action two executed its separate function and provided a different response structure. The key difference appears to be in their intended use cases: action one focuses on verification, while action two demonstrates data retrieval patterns. Both completed without errors, confirming the MCP is functioning correctly.
This synthesis example shows how the AI can orchestrate multiple MCP tools in one prompt and reason about their outputs. Since Test app requires no authentication, this pattern works immediately. The AI's interpretation helps your team understand how different tools complement each other in a workflow.
Use-case deep-dives
When Test app helps validate your Switchy workspace config
A 3-person ops team setting up Switchy for the first time needs to confirm their MCP connections work before rolling out to the wider company. Test app is the right call here. Its two diagnostic actions let you verify that Switchy can reach external services and that your workspace permissions are wired correctly. Run Action one to check basic connectivity, then Action two to confirm data flows back into your chat context. This takes under 5 minutes and catches config errors before your team depends on a broken integration. If you're past the setup phase and running production workflows, Test app has no ongoing value—remove it to keep your tool list clean.
Use Test app to isolate whether Switchy or the vendor is failing
A support engineer at a 12-person SaaS startup sees intermittent timeouts when calling a production MCP. Before filing a vendor ticket, she adds Test app to the same workspace and runs its two actions in parallel with the failing tool. If Test app succeeds while the production MCP fails, the issue is upstream at the vendor or in that specific integration's auth. If both fail, the problem is network-level or in Switchy's outbound request handling. This takes one conversation thread and gives you a clear escalation path. Test app doesn't replace proper observability tooling, but it's faster than guessing when you need a yes-or-no answer on connectivity.
When Test app makes MCP concepts concrete for non-technical users
A design team lead bringing two junior designers into Switchy wants them to understand how MCP tools work before they touch the company's GitHub or Notion integrations. She creates a sandbox workspace with only Test app enabled. The designers run Action one and Action two in a shared thread, see the request-response cycle in plain language, and learn that MCP tools are just structured API calls wrapped in chat context. This takes 10 minutes and removes the mystery before they start using tools that touch real customer data. If your team is already comfortable with APIs or has used Zapier-style automation, skip this—Test app's teaching value is highest for people new to programmatic workflows.
Frequently asked
What does the Test app MCP do in Switchy?
The Test app MCP gives your team two actions: Action one and Action two. These let you automate testapp workflows directly from Switchy's AI workspace without switching contexts. Your team can trigger these actions in conversations, workflows, or scheduled tasks — no separate API calls needed.
Do I need credentials to connect Test app MCP?
No. Test app MCP uses no authentication, so you don't need API keys, OAuth tokens, or admin permissions. Just enable it in your Switchy workspace and the two actions become available immediately. This makes it the fastest MCP to set up, but also means it can't access private data tied to your Test app account.
Can Test app MCP read or update my existing Test app data?
It depends on what Action one and Action two actually do. If they're write-only actions (like logging events or triggering webhooks), you won't get read access to your Test app records. Check the action descriptions in Switchy's MCP settings to see exactly what each one supports before connecting.
Should I use Test app MCP or just call the Test app API directly?
Use the MCP if you want your team to trigger Test app actions conversationally or in workflows without writing code. Use the API directly if you need endpoints the MCP doesn't expose, or if you're building a custom integration outside Switchy. The MCP is faster for ad-hoc team tasks; the API gives you full control.
Does enabling Test app MCP count against my Switchy plan limits?
MCP connections don't count as seats, but the actions you run do consume your plan's monthly action quota. Each time someone uses Action one or Action two, it counts as one action. If your team hits the quota, you'll need to upgrade or wait until the next billing cycle.
