Outline
Team knowledge base and wiki for managing documentation and collaboration
This is a first-class FlyMyAI MCP. Agents discover it automatically via tool search and call the actions below on demand - you never wire it up by hand. See the Composio catalog for how discovery works.
Connect
Outline authenticates with an API key. Generate the credential in your Outline account, then paste it into FlyMyAI the first time an agent uses an Outline action.
Fields to fill in FlyMyAI
| Field | Details |
|---|---|
Instance URL | Your Outline workspace's web address, e.g. https://app.getoutline.com or your own domain if self-hosted. Copy it from your browser's address bar - no trailing slash. (required) |
API Key | Your Outline API key, a secret token starting with 'ol_api_'. Create one in Outline under Settings → API Keys and copy it when shown. (required) |

Every action this integration exposes. Agents pick the right one from the task; you do not call them by name.
