Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Hevo Data (ETL & Data Pipeline) MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Hevo Data (ETL & Data Pipeline) to VS Code Copilot and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Troubleshoot pipelines as a team
The `list_pipelines` tool gives your developers immediate visibility into active data syncs. They open Copilot Chat, ask what pipelines are running, and get a list of IDs and statuses. You stop context-switching between your IDE and a web dashboard. When a specific pipeline fails, they use `get_pipeline` to pull the exact configuration details. Your AI client checks the source, schedule, and recent run states. The whole team troubleshoots from the same source of truth using this MCP Server.
Map workflows and transformations
Complex data architectures rely on chained events. The `list_workflows` tool maps out how your pipelines trigger each other. Copilot reads the dependencies and helps you understand the downstream impact of a failed run. Data transformations live in the middle. The `list_models` tool retrieves the SQL logic applied to your events during transit. Your agent reviews the active transformations so your team writes compatible downstream queries. Let's look at the metal, not the documentation.
Track targets and event consumption
You need to track where the data lands. The `list_destinations` tool pulls your configured data warehouses. Copilot uses these targets to help developers write correct connection logic for their local testing environments. Cost control matters. The `get_usage` tool checks your event consumption against your account limits. A developer can ask the agent to verify remaining quota before testing a massive data load. You catch billing spikes before they happen.
