# List records

Returns the records of one object, such as people, companies or deals, filtered and sorted by their attribute values.

## 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.

```json
{ "mcpServers": { "attio": { "url": "https://mcp.attio.com/mcp" } } }
```

Call the MCP tool `list-records`.

Server URL: https://mcp.attio.com/mcp

### API (official)

- Base URL: https://api.attio.com
- Endpoint: `POST /v2/objects/{object}/records/query`
- Auth: send the header `Authorization: Bearer $ATTIO_API_KEY`
- Get a key: https://attio.com/help/reference/apps/generating-an-api-key
- Docs: https://docs.attio.com/rest-api/overview

Before doing anything else, make one read-only call to confirm access.

## Rules

- Ask the user before anything that sends messages, costs money, or changes data.
- Never print API keys.
