# MCP handles

#### Overview

You can use Ellipsis Drive MCP handles to grant your AI agent access to your Drive environment. When using MCP handles your agent can browse optimised metadata and perform actions.

Your agent can:

* Perform searches
* Retrieve data
* Combine data
* Execute compute

Your agent is situationally aware, meaning that it knows what content you own, what is shared with you and what public data could be relevant for your context.

#### Setup

1\) Go to your account settings and navigate to Oauth.

2\) Create an Oauth client and copy both the client id and client secret.

3\) Add the redirect url of your AI service to the list of redirect urls on the Oauth page.
