https://nordicsemi.mcp.kapa.ai/ this works fine with vs code, but still fails with github copilot. Anyway it's better than nothing. Thanks for help!

Hi,

Can you please tell from which website you tried to install the MCP server?

Best Regards,

Hi,

I did successfully able to set up and authenticate the Nordic public MCP server in VS Code (windows) through one click option in Nordic Semiconductor AI powered by kapa.ai (available on bottom right corner on this devzone) just by changing url to https: https://nordicsemi.mcp.kapa.ai/ in mcp.json file.

Regarding your authorization failure I have reached out to the internal team and will get back to you soon.

Best Regards,
