How to Use the New Relic MCP in LlamaIndex
Index your entire New Relic infrastructure into LlamaIndex for searchable, grounded observability data.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect New Relic MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect New Relic to LlamaIndex and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Index New Relic data with LlamaIndex
Convert `list_dashboards` and `get_dashboard` configurations into vector embeddings. Your knowledge base now contains the exact state of your monitoring setup. This allows your agent to answer questions about dashboard layout without querying the live API every time. It keeps your RAG application fast and responsive.
Ground LlamaIndex answers in real telemetry
Fetch live data using `run_nrql` and feed it into your index. Your model stops hallucinating about system health because it references current query results. This creates a unified source of truth for your technical documentation and live performance metrics. You get accurate, data-backed insights for every query.
Filter New Relic tools in LlamaIndex
Use the allowed_tools filter to limit which parts of your monitoring stack your agent can access. You control exactly what data enters your vector store. This restriction prevents your agent from running expensive queries on non-essential accounts. It focuses the model on relevant telemetry during the indexing phase.
