Install SharePoint MCP Server in LM Studio
What you need first
- LM Studio, installed.
- uv, which
gives the
uvxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_SHP_ID_APP,YOUR_SHP_ID_APP_SECRET,YOUR_SHP_TENANT_ID,YOUR_SHP_SITE_URL.
Steps
- In LM Studio, open the Program tab and choose Install › Edit mcp.json.
- Add this block. If the file already has
mcpServers, add only the entry inside it.
{
"mcpServers": {
"sharepoint-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["sharepoint-mcp==1.1.1"],
"env": { "SHP_ID_APP": "YOUR_SHP_ID_APP", "SHP_ID_APP_SECRET": "YOUR_SHP_ID_APP_SECRET", "SHP_TENANT_ID": "YOUR_SHP_TENANT_ID", "SHP_SITE_URL": "YOUR_SHP_SITE_URL" }
}
}
} - Replace
YOUR_SHP_ID_APP,YOUR_SHP_ID_APP_SECRET,YOUR_SHP_TENANT_ID,YOUR_SHP_SITE_URLwith your own values. - Save the file and restart LM Studio.
Check it worked
Ask LM Studio: List the tools of sharepoint-mcp.
If it does not start
- spawn uvx ENOENT
- uv is not on the PATH that LM Studio sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
uvxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong. - Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
