Troubleshooting

Authentication Errors

"IGDB_CLIENT_ID not set": Check your MCP client config has the env variables
"Invalid credentials": Verify your Client ID and Secret are correct
"Token expired": The server handles token refresh automatically

Rate Limiting

IGDB allows 4 requests per second. The server doesn't implement rate limiting, so:

Avoid rapid repeated queries
Use field expansion instead of multiple requests
Leverage multi-query for batch operations

Common Query Issues

No results: Check spelling, try broader search terms
Missing fields: Some fields may be null; handle gracefully
Query syntax error: Verify Apicalypse syntax, check semicolons

Environment Variables

Ensure your MCP client config includes:

"env": {
  "IGDB_CLIENT_ID": "abc123...",
  "IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET": "xyz789..."
}
