SAP Emarsys

Included because its Core API exposes contacts, segments, campaigns, events, products, orders, and reporting for omnichannel interfaces while SAP Emarsys moves the API from legacy WSSE toward OAuth/OIDC authentication.

Concrete capability record

Data, retrieval, actions, identity, and operating limits

A field-by-field summary of what the reviewed first-party references actually support. Publisher update dates and BYO-UI review dates are shown separately below.

01 · Records and state owned

Contacts and fields, contact lists and segments, email campaigns and schedules, external events, automation programs, products and orders, email-response metrics, and supported SMS or loyalty resources on their separate API families.

02 · Data you can retrieve

Read permitted contacts and fields, list or segment membership and counts, campaign state, external-event configuration, product or order data, and email engagement or deliverability results.

03 · Actions and write paths

Create or update contacts and audience data, create or control supported email campaigns, and trigger enabled external events or transactional workflows through the appropriate API family.

04 · Authentication and permissions

Core API v3 uses OAuth 2.0 with OpenID Connect and JWT. Legacy WSSE authentication is deprecated for a final sunset at the end of 2026, so the required credential model depends on the endpoint batch during migration.

05 · Monitoring, approval, and recovery

Pin each integration to an endpoint batch and authentication mode, keep contact identity and audience scope visible, and require a preview before campaign control, external-event triggers, or transactional actions that can reach customers immediately.

06 · Limits and caveats

No Emarsys-native provider MCP is documented. Authentication and resource coverage vary by API family and endpoint batch during the WSSE-to-OAuth transition, and enabled modules still determine available operations.

Agent access

MCP support

BridgeSAP platform/bridge context; no Emarsys-native provider verified

Support: Bridge

Read scope: No first-party MCP read surface verified.

Write scope: No first-party MCP write surface verified.

Authentication: Not applicable to a first-party MCP provider.

Approval boundary: Any customer-built adapter must define its own approval and confirmation controls.

Protocol does not erase product boundaries.

Confirm the current tool catalog, plan, region, scopes, rate limits, terms, and write behavior before implementation.

Evidence and dates

First-party references, with publisher and review dates separated

“Publisher updated” is shown only when the page exposes an update date. “BYO-UI reviewed” records when this research checked the reference. A missing publisher date is reported as missing—not replaced with the review date.
