MCP Prompt library

Explore a complete list of Podia MCP tools and prompts, along with examples and ideas to help you use them effectively

Written by Rodrigo

Your Podia is now connected to your AI tool.

In this article, you’ll find ready-to-use prompts for managing your account, finding information, and making the most of Podia.

Before we start...

Here are some tips before we get started:

  • Use this library as a starting point: It includes prompts for the actions supported by Podia MCP. Copy any prompt into your preferred MCP-compatible AI tool, then replace the [bracketed placeholders] with your own details.

  • Be specific about where and what you need: A prompt like “Show me posts” is broad. Instead, try: “Show me the 10 latest posts in the Getting Started space”.

  • Combine related actions: You can include several steps in one prompt. For example: "Create a private space for members on the Bronze plan, call it Bronze Space, then add a welcome post." Podia MCP can complete supported multi-step workflows from a single request.

  • Save prompts that work well: You may find yourself using the same prompts regularly for tasks such as reviewing account activity, checking reported content, or dealing with your audience. Saving them makes these recurring workflows easier.

  • Refine your request when needed: If the result isn’t what you expected, ask your AI tool to adjust it, apply different filters, or use another format. You can continue refining the request within the same conversation.
