## Using HasMCP UI

Creating an MCP server through the UI handles the endpoint communication for you. Simply navigate to the **Servers** page, click **Create Server**, and submit the form.

## Using REST API

The specific API endpoint of the HasMCP Manager used for creating a new MCP server is:

**`POST /servers`**

### Endpoint Details

* **HTTP Method**: `POST`
* **Path**: `/servers`
* **Authentication**: Requires a Bearer token in the `Authorization` header (`Bearer <token>`).
* **Content-Type**: `application/json`

When you send a valid [`CreateServerRequest`](/api-reference/servers/create-mcp-server) payload to this endpoint, the HasMCP Manager will provision your new server and return a `201 Created` response with the server's generated ID and complete configuration.
