Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Manage AI clients connected via Model Context Protocol (MCP) to access your data products and metadata.

Overview

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables AI clients like ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot to interact with your Data Mesh Manager organization. Through MCP, AI assistants can:

  • Search and discover data products
  • Fetch detailed data product information
  • Request access to data products
  • Execute SQL queries on authorized data products
  • View and manage data contracts

Setup Instructions

Navigate to Settings -> MCP -> Add MCP Client and choose your AI client to get started:

Select MCP Client

ChatGPT

Connect OpenAI's ChatGPT to your MCP server using Developer Mode and custom connectors.

Claude

Add your MCP server as a custom connector in Claude's settings.

Microsoft Copilot

Configure Microsoft Copilot Studio to connect to your MCP server with full OAuth 2.0 authentication.

MCP Inspector

Use the MCP Inspector tool to test and debug your MCP server integration.

Alternative Authentication Method

If OAuth 2.0 is not supported by your MCP client, you can use API Key authentication instead.
