Connect Gemini to your Flashcloud account

Google's Gemini can connect to your Flashcloud account so you can ask about your hosting, domains, and DNS in plain language — and, with your approval, make changes with a confirmation step every time.

Gemini reaches the connector over the same open standard as every other assistant: a remote MCP server on the Streamable HTTP transport, with an OAuth sign-in. You'll connect it through the Gemini CLI or through Gemini Enterprise.

The connector URL you'll need:

https://mcp.flashcloud.com/mcp

Gemini CLI

1. Open your Gemini settings file at ~/.gemini/settings.json (create it if it doesn't exist).
2. Add Flashcloud under mcpServers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flashcloud": {
      "httpUrl": "https://mcp.flashcloud.com/mcp",
      "oauth": { "enabled": true }
    }
  }
}

3. Start the Gemini CLI and run /mcp auth flashcloud. A Flashcloud sign-in page opens in your browser.
4. Sign in with your Flashcloud email and password (and your two-factor code if you have it enabled), then choose what Gemini may access. Reading is on by default; action permissions are off until you tick them.
5. Run /mcp at any time to see the connection status and the tools it exposes.

Gemini Enterprise

If your organisation uses Gemini Enterprise, an administrator can add Flashcloud as a custom MCP server:

1. In the Gemini Enterprise admin settings, add a custom MCP server connection.
2. Paste the connector URL: https://mcp.flashcloud.com/mcp
3. Choose the Streamable HTTP transport and OAuth 2.0 for authentication.
4. Save, then sign in with your Flashcloud account and approve the access you want.

Gemini's setup screens shift between versions. If the exact labels differ, look for a custom or remote MCP server, the Streamable HTTP transport, and OAuth sign-in, then paste the same connector URL.

Once connected, try asking:

What's my Flashcloud account status?

Managing the connection

Your portal's Goodies → AI Agents page shows exactly what Gemini can do and a full activity log, and lets you disconnect it instantly.

Good to know

• Gemini never sees your password — sign-in happens on Flashcloud's own page.
• Actions always show you what will change and wait for your approval.
• Gemini can never pay, change your password, or cancel services — those only happen in the portal.
