Feature **[Developer Preview](https://developers.google.com/workspace/preview)** : The [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server for the People API is now available in developer preview. MCP is an open protocol that enables seamless integration between AI applications and your Google Workspace directory and contacts. By configuring the People API MCP server, you enable AI agents to securely retrieve user profiles and search for people in your directory.

For example, you can ask your AI agent: *"Find Ariel's email address from the company directory."*

To get started with the People API MCP server, see the following documentation:

- [People API MCP tool reference](https://developers.google.com/people/api/mcp)
