## Introduction

Hermes is a 24/7 autonomous agent that lives on your computer or server — it remembers what it learns and evolves as your usage grows.
This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your Active campaign account to Hermes. You can do this through either Composio Connect CLI or Composio Connect MCP. For personal use we recommend the CLI, but you won't go wrong with MCP either.

## What is the Active campaign MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The ActiveCampaign MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your ActiveCampaign account. It provides structured and secure access to your marketing automation and CRM data, so your agent can perform actions like adding contacts, managing deals, creating tasks, and organizing pipelines on your behalf.
- Automated contact management: Easily add new contacts, update details, or attach notes so your customer database stays current and actionable.
- Sales pipeline creation and management: Let your agent create, customize, or delete deal pipelines and organize deals through every stage of your sales process.
- Task and activity automation: Have your agent create tasks for contacts and deals, assign due dates, and ensure important follow-ups never slip through the cracks.
- Deal and account organization: Automatically create, update, or remove accounts and associate them with the right contacts and opportunities for seamless CRM workflows.
- Seamless automation enrollment: Add contacts directly to specific automations, personalizing your marketing or sales outreach at scale without manual effort.

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Active campaign MCP server provides comprehensive access to Active campaign operations through Composio. Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Active campaign actions on your behalf using natural language commands.

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Active campaign connected, Hermes can now act on your behalf whenever it detects a relevant task or you ask it to.
From here, you can extend Hermes further:
- Connect more apps: Calendar, Slack, Notion, Linear, and hundreds of others are available through the same Composio Connect setup. Each new integration compounds what Hermes can do for you.
- Build workflows across tools: Once multiple apps are connected, Hermes can chain actions together — turn an email into a calendar invite, a Slack message into a Linear ticket, or a meeting note into a follow-up draft.
- Let it learn your patterns: The more you use Hermes, the better it gets at anticipating how you'd handle recurring tasks. Give it feedback on drafts and decisions, and it will adapt.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Active campaign MCP?

With a standalone Active campaign MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Active campaign tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Active campaign and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Hermes?

Yes, you can. Hermes fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Active campaign tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Active campaign while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Active campaign scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Active campaign data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
