Connect the MCP Server

Connect the BEEM data platform to AI assistants. Explore workspaces, query datasets, build SQL views, monitor pipelines, and manage dashboards — all through natural language.

👍
Quick Start
Paste this into any MCP-compatible AI assistant to get started:
Add the BEEM MCP server with URL https://mcp.beemdata.com/mcp using HTTP transport at user scope. It uses OAuth — I'll authenticate when prompted.

Server URL

https://mcp.beemdata.com/mcp

Setup by Client

Open the Customize panel (bottom-left of the chat screen)
Go to Connectors and click the + button
Enter name: BEEM and URL: https://mcp.beemdata.com/mcp
Click Add, then sign in with your BEEM account when prompted

Open Settings → Developer → Edit Config and add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "beemdata": {
      "url": "https://mcp.beemdata.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop, then authenticate on first use.

Run this in your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http --scope user beemdata https://mcp.beemdata.com/mcp

The --scope user flag makes BEEM available in all your projects. A browser window opens to authenticate on first use.

Add to your VS Code settings JSON:

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "beemdata": {
        "type": "http",
        "url": "https://mcp.beemdata.com/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or create a .vscode/mcp.json in your project:

{
  "servers": {
    "beemdata": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.beemdata.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Restart VS Code. Copilot will prompt you to authenticate on first use.

Any client that supports Streamable HTTP transport will work.


Server URL	`https://mcp.beemdata.com/mcp`
Auth	OAuth 2.0 with PKCE (authorization code flow)
Discovery	`https://mcp.beemdata.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`
Registration	Dynamic client registration supported

Examples

Explore and query data

"Show me the datasets in my workspace and query the first one"

Retrieves your workspaces, lists available datasets, fetches details including SQL and schema, then queries content and returns sample rows.

Create and deploy SQL

"Create a dataset called 'Monthly Revenue' that aggregates revenue by month, then deploy it"

Creates a new dataset, saves SQL as draft, previews results, then deploys it as a live Redshift view with scheduling.

Monitor pipelines

"Check if any of my data pipelines failed in the last 24 hours"

Lists recent pipeline events filtered by failure status, identifies affected datasets and sources, shows error details and DPU usage.

Troubleshooting

Session terminated / Session expired

Your session may have been lost after a server update. Simply retry — the client will re-authenticate automatically.

Authentication fails or loops

Make sure you're signing in with a BEEM account that has access to at least one workspace. Try disconnecting and reconnecting the MCP server.

Tool returns 'not found' errors

The MCP server uses your BEEM permissions — you can only access resources your account has access to. Verify you have access to the workspace or dataset in question.
