Expose project default actionViewId/tabId in MCP
complete
Luis Alcalá Mascareño
We are unable to reliably obtain the task link after creating tasks programmatically via the Hive MCP server. The web app's task URL requires parameters like actionViewId and tabId, which are not returned by any MCP query tools we have access to. It would be beneficial if these could be exposed, perhaps as additional fields on getProjects or through a dedicated 'getProjectViews' tool, to automate the creation of correct deep links.

Closing the loop, Luis: MCP now gives you the task link directly. getActions includes each action’s URL, and insertActions returns the new action’s ID and URL. No view or tab ID lookup is needed to build a reliable link. Thanks for raising this.

Thanks for flagging this, Luis — we’ve made this easier without requiring MCP clients to reconstruct Hive’s view-specific routing.
getActions
now returns a canonical url
for each action, and insertActions
returns the new action’s actionId
and url
together. The change is merged and will be live Thursday, August 27, so you’ll be able to build reliable task links directly from MCP responses.
