MCP Reference: Android Device Management MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server acts as a proxy between an external service that provides context, data, or capabilities to a Large Language Model (LLM) or AI application. MCP servers connect AI applications to external systems such as databases and web services, translating their responses into a format that the AI application can understand.

Server Setup

You must enable MCP servers and set up authentication before use. For more information about using Google and Google Cloud remote MCP servers, see Google Cloud MCP servers overview.

Provides tools to manage Android devices, applications, and policies for enterprises.

Server Endpoints

An MCP service endpoint is the network address and communication interface (usually a URL) of the MCP server that an AI application (the Host for the MCP client) uses to establish a secure, standardized connection. It is the point of contact for the LLM to request context, call a tool, or access a resource. Google MCP endpoints can be global or regional.

The Android Device Management MCP Server MCP server has the following MCP endpoint:

  • https://androidmanagement.googleapis.com/mcp

MCP Tools

An MCP tool is a function or executable capability that an MCP server exposes to a LLM or AI application to perform an action in the real world.

The Android Device Management MCP Server MCP server has the following tools:

MCP Tools
get_enterprise Gets an enterprise for a given enterprise ID. Requires the enterprise ID in the name field (e.g., enterprises/{enterpriseId}).
list_enterprises Lists enterprises accessible to the caller.
get_application Gets application details for a given enterprise and application ID. Requires the resource name in the format: enterprises/{enterpriseId}/applications/{applicationId}.
get_device Gets device details for a given enterprise and device ID. Requires the resource name in the format: enterprises/{enterpriseId}/devices/{deviceId}.
list_devices Lists devices for a given enterprise. Requires the enterprise ID in the parent field (e.g., enterprises/{enterpriseId}).
get_policy Gets a policy for a given enterprise and policy ID. Requires the resource name in the format: enterprises/{enterpriseId}/policies/{policyId}.
list_policies Lists policies for a given enterprise. Requires the enterprise resource name in the parent field (e.g., enterprises/{enterpriseId}).
get_web_app Gets a web app. Requires the resource name in the format: enterprises/{enterpriseId}/webApps/{webAppId}.
list_web_apps Lists web apps for a given enterprise. Requires the enterprise resource name in the parent field (e.g., enterprises/{enterpriseId}).

Get MCP tool specifications

To get the MCP tool specifications for all tools in an MCP server, use the tools/list method. The following example demonstrates how to use curl to list all tools and their specifications currently available within the MCP server.

Curl Request 
                      
curl --location 'https://androidmanagement.googleapis.com/mcp' \
