5. Add the following configuration to the `mcpServers` section of your `mcp.json` file:

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "make": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["-y", "@makehq/mcp-server"],
            "env": {
                "MAKE_API_KEY": "<your-api-key>",
                "MAKE_ZONE": "<your-zone>",
                "MAKE_TEAM": "<your-team-id>"
            }
        }
    }
}
```

6. Replace placeholders:

`MAKE_API_KEY` - You can generate an API key in your Make profile.

`MAKE_ZONE` - The zone your organization is hosted in (e.g., `eu2.make.com`).

`MAKE_TEAM` - The ID in the URL of the Team page.
