# Vued API

> Build integrations with Vued's cloud API, Python SDK, local desktop API, and MCP tools.

Vued turns meetings and ambient office conversations into searchable records. Use the API and SDK to pull retained metadata, manage organization resources, create webhooks, and let trusted local tools search decrypted transcripts.

| Python SDK        | `vued.Vued`                                   | A synchronous wrapper over the cloud API and local desktop plaintext methods.         |
| Local desktop API | `http://127.0.0.1:<discovered_port>`          | Decrypted meetings, transcripts, search, and file names from an unlocked desktop app. |
| Local MCP         | `vued mcp`                                    | Coding-agent tools for decrypted Vued memory.                                         |

<Note>
  Cloud endpoints intentionally avoid returning plaintext transcript content. Use the Python SDK local methods, local desktop API, or local MCP when you need decrypted meeting text.
