Give your assistant Amazon SQS

Connect Amazon SQS once and every tool above is callable from Claude, Cursor or any MCP client, behind the same server URL as 770+ other apps. Free to start.

Amazon SQS MCP, answered.

No. That is the point of it. One Activepieces server exposes Amazon SQS alongside every other piece you connect, so your client keeps a single connection.

Yes. Activepieces is open source and free to start, and the MCP server is included on every plan, from the free cloud tier to any self-hosted deployment.

Connect Amazon SQS in Activepieces, enable the server under Settings → MCP Server, then paste your server URL into your client config. It authenticates over OAuth on first use.

It can call 17 tools, including Send Message, Send Message Batch, Receive Messages, and chain them with steps in other apps inside the same run.

Connections use OAuth2 with limited scopes and are stored under 256-bit encryption, with no API to read them back, so an agent gets scoped access rather than your keys.
