    How to connect

    4. Fill in the form: Name (anything), Description (one line about what the service does), MCP server URL (copy it below).

    num_search_placesSearch NUM's travel directory: more than 2.5 million places — restaurants, bars, hotels, spas, tours and shops, deepest in Thailand and the UK. Requires at least one of q, city, country or category. Returns name, category, address, phone, website, coordinates and whether the owner has claimed the listing. Each call counts against the daily read quota.
    num_get_placeFull record for one place, by the place_id that num_search_places returned. Each call counts against the daily read quota.
    num_submit_businessSubmit a business to NUM for review. Free and unmetered. A person at 5arz reviews every submission before any traveller sees it, so the result is status 'pending_review', never an immediate listing. 'relationship' records whether the submitter owns the business, was engaged by the owner, or is a third party; reviewers verify it. Contact details must be ones the business has published — submissions with guessed or derived contact details are rejected. Re-sending the same external_ref updates the pending submission instead of creating a duplicate.
    num_submit_promoAttach a promotion, special, event or ad to a business previously submitted by the same account. Free and unmetered. A person reviews it before it is shown to anyone. Re-sending the same promo_ref updates the pending promotion instead of creating a duplicate.
    num_list_submissionsLists the businesses and promotions this account has submitted, with the reviewer's decision on each. Free and unmetered.
