WooCommerce API and MCP server

WooCommerce's API covers orders, products, refunds and coupons, but it takes consumer keys you create for every store and code you write and host. Sign in to WooCommerce once in your own Cloud Browser, and your AI agent does the work there for you. The same tools work over MCP for agents and as a REST API for scripts.

WooCommerce has no API for this. So we run one for you.

How do I connect WooCommerce to Claude, ChatGPT or my code?

AI agents connect over MCP, scripts call the REST API. Both reach the same 11 tools with one API key.

For AI agents: MCP

Add Cotlet to your agent once. WooCommerce and every other app you connect show up as its tools.

  • ChatGPT
  • OpenClaw
  • Hermes

  • n8n
  • Any MCP client

    Add Cotlet to your agent

    Claude Code
    claude mcp add --transport http cotlet \
  https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1 \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $COTLET_API_KEY"
    Cursor
    {

      "url": "https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${COTLET_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}
    Codex
    # ~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.cotlet]
url = "https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1"
bearer_token_env_var = "COTLET_API_KEY"

    Paste the snippet for your client. The same server and key serve every app you connect, so you do this once.

For scripts: REST API

Every tool is an endpoint under /api/v1/woocommerce with its own method and path, such as PATCH /api/v1/woocommerce/products/{product_id}, with the same API key. Our open-source repo has ready scripts to start from.

REST API docs

What can the WooCommerce API and MCP server do?

11 tools on your own WooCommerce account. Agents call them as operations of the MCP tools woocommerce_read and woocommerce_write; scripts call each one at its own REST endpoint, with the same inputs and answers.

Most calls use 25 credits, and your Cloud Browser uses 50 credits a day while WooCommerce is enabled for agents, so 20 calls a day come to 550 credits.

Questions

Does WooCommerce have an API?

Yes. WooCommerce has a full REST API (wc/v3) for orders, products, customers, coupons, refunds and reports, and a store owner creates consumer keys for it per store (checked 16 Oct 2026). Its official MCP server is a developer preview, off by default, and its built-in abilities cover only products and orders.

How do I get access?

Sign up free, open WooCommerce under Integrations in the console and press Request access. Your free trial starts with your account, no card needed.

Is the MCP server different from the API?

No, only the way in. Cotlet builds each integration as a REST API and puts an MCP server on top, so both have the same 11 tools, the same inputs and answers, one API key and one price. AI agents such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use MCP; scripts, cron jobs and HTTP steps in n8n, Make or Zapier use the REST API.

What is the Cloud Browser?

Your own Chrome that Cotlet runs for you in the EU, around the clock. You open it from the console, sign in to WooCommerce yourself and press Enable for agents. Your agent's calls go through it, from its IP with its cookies, so WooCommerce sees the browser you signed in with. Password saving is off and the profile is stored encrypted with AES-256-GCM.

Can my agent act without asking me?

Not on anything that reaches other people: update_order_status, add_order_note, create_refund, create_coupon, update_product wait for your OK by default. You can switch that off per tool for scheduled runs.

Which role does my WordPress account need?

The Administrator or Shop Manager role. WooCommerce shows orders to those roles, and its coupon guide asks for an administrator or shop manager account.

Should I use a WooCommerce MCP server from GitHub instead?

Pick one if you want the code on your own computer and do not mind the upkeep: you install it, sign it in and fix it when WooCommerce changes. Pick Cotlet if you want it hosted and kept working for you.

Can I use it in n8n, Make or Zapier?

Yes. Add https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1 in n8n's MCP Client node, or call the REST endpoints from an HTTP step in Make or Zapier.

Who runs Cotlet?

Cotlet is run by Take Group, a Polish software company working since 2019. Take Group runs about 3,200 websites on its own systems and has its own DevOps team for infrastructure security. We built and used integrations like this inside the company for years before opening them as Cotlet.

Is Cotlet affiliated with WooCommerce?

No. Cotlet is independent and not affiliated with WooCommerce.
