HTTP Transport (Remote)​

Security

When deploying HTTP transport in production:

  • Always run behind a reverse proxy (nginx, Caddy) with HTTPS
  • Implement authentication/authorization at the proxy level
  • Use firewalls to restrict access to trusted networks
  • Never expose directly to the public internet without protection

Start the server:

TRANSPORT_MODE=http HTTP_PORT=3000 node build/index.js

Configure client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "qdrant": {
      "url": "http://your-server:3000/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Using a Different Provider​

"env": {
  "EMBEDDING_PROVIDER": "openai",
  "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-...",
  "QDRANT_URL": "http://localhost:6333"
}

See Configuration for all options.
