Fastest path to a key

  1. Phone OTP
    Register as a seller at seller.flipkart.com (phone OTP, email, GSTIN/PAN, bank account, address verification).
  2. Seller Dashboard -> Manage Profile -> Developer Access -> create Self Access Application (client_id/secret).
  3. client_credentials grant at api.flipkart.net -> access token (~60-day expiry) -> call Seller API v3.
  4. Talk to sales
    Third-party developers instead: register on Partner Dashboard as 'API Partner' -> Flipkart verifies within ~72h -> create Third Party application -> authorization_code flow with each seller.
  5. Working API key

Biggest gap

No agent surface (MCP/llms.txt) and seller/partner KYC before any credential.

Worth copying

Self-access app with client_credentials for a seller's own account avoids redirect-based OAuth.

Biggest gains

  1. +12 Remote MCP server for the product. Host a remote MCP server (e.g. mcp.<domain>/mcp, Streamable HTTP) for your core actions.
  2. +8 llms.txt exists. Publish /llms.txt: a markdown index of your docs at the root or docs host.
  3. +8 Machine-readable API spec. Publish an OpenAPI spec at a stable URL like /openapi.json and link it from llms.txt.

A remote MCP server lets Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor act on your product in one click, with no glue code.

Where: https://mcp.flipkart.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
// npm i @modelcontextprotocol/sdk zod  — minimal remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP, stateless)
import { McpServer } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/mcp.js";
import { StreamableHTTPServerTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/streamableHttp.js";
import express from "express";
import { z } from "zod";

const app = express();
app.use(express.json());

app.post("/mcp", async (req, res) => {
  const server = new McpServer({ name: "flipkart.com", version: "1.0.0" });
  // One tool per core job. Clear verbs, typed inputs, small outputs.
  server.tool("create_<thing>", "Create a <thing> for the signed-in user.", { name: z.string() },
    async ({ name }) => {
      const key = req.headers.authorization?.replace("Bearer ", ""); // scoped API key or OAuth token
      const r = await fetch("https://flipkart.com/v1/<things>", { method: "POST", headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${key}` }, body: JSON.stringify({ name }) });
      return { content: [{ type: "text", text: await r.text() }] };
    });
  const transport = new StreamableHTTPServerTransport({ sessionIdGenerator: undefined });
  res.on("close", () => transport.close());
  await server.connect(transport);
  await transport.handleRequest(req, res, req.body);
});
app.listen(3000);
Check it worked:curl -s -X POST https://mcp.flipkart.com/mcp -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'Accept: application/json, text/event-stream' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-06-18","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"t","version":"1"}}}' -i | head -15
