List tracked categories
Returns the categories tracked by a Profound organization.
Note: Requires org_id from list_organizations; keep the category ID for reports.
Set up
Use the first option your agent supports.
MCP (official, remote)
Add this server to your agent's MCP settings, then sign in when asked.
{ "mcpServers": { "profound": { "url": "https://mcp.tryprofound.com/mcp" } } }
Call the MCP tool list_categories.
Server URL: https://mcp.tryprofound.com/mcp
Note: Sign in with your Profound account through OAuth; tools return only data the authenticated user can access. Available data depends on your account permissions.
Before anything else, confirm access with the cheapest read-only call, like a list or a search. Never send or change anything to test access.
Rules
- Ask the user before anything that sends messages, costs money, or changes data, and say how many records it touches. One approval covers a batch the user has seen.
- Never print API keys.
