๐ New Video: Build a Custom Salesforce MCP Server โ REST Classes, Flows & Named Queries
Following the Headless360 announcement at Salesforce TDX 2026, the door is now wide open to build your own MCP server directly inside Salesforce โ and connect it to any AI model, including Claude.
In this step-by-step tutorial, I walk you through the entire setup:
โ Create an External Client App in your Salesforce Developer Org
โ Expose Apex REST Classes as MCP Tools
โ Use Salesforce Flows as MCP Tools
โ Leverage Apex Aura-Enabled Methods as MCP Tools
โ Run Named Queries as MCP Tools
โ Test inside VS Code โ and then integrate live with Claude
This is the hands-on demo that bridges the gap between the TDX announcement and what you can actually BUILD today.
If you're a Salesforce developer or architect trying to understand how MCP (Model Context Protocol) fits into the Salesforce ecosystem โ and how to make Claude actually talk to your org โ this one is for you.
๐ฏ What you'll walk away with:
โ A working Salesforce MCP server you built yourself
โ Real understanding of how each tool type (REST, Flow, Named Query) behaves inside an MCP context
โ Confidence to extend this to your own Agentforce and automation scenarios
