+### Mounting to an Existing ASGI Server
+
+You can mount the SSE server to an existing ASGI server using the `sse_app` method. This allows you to integrate the SSE server with other ASGI applications.
+
+```python
+from fastapi import FastAPI
+from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP
+
+app = FastAPI()
+mcp = FastMCP("My App")
+
+# Mount the SSE server to the existing ASGI server
+app.mount('/', mcp.sse_app())
+```
