How to Use the Veraset MCP in Claude

Q: How do I query Veraset datasets with Claude Desktop?

You call the executesqlquery tool, passing it the dataset ID and your ANSI SQL. The MCP Server handles running that task against Veraset's data.

You use getquerystatus with the query ID returned by executesqlquery. This tells you if the task is still running or if there was an error.

Perplexity

Execute and manage complex SQL queries.

You can start a new SQL query task against any dataset ID using `execute_sql_query`. The server immediately returns a unique query ID. If the job takes time, you track its progress with `get_query_status`. Once the query finishes, use `get_query_results` to pull in the data rows. You'll also have `cancel_running_query` if you need to stop a task before it completes.

Discover and examine dataset structure.

Need to know what data you’re working with? Use `list_mobility_datasets` first. Then, check the technical details using `get_dataset_metadata`. For a quick look at columns, run `get_dataset_schema`, and if you just need a feel for it, `get_dataset_sample` retrieves a few rows.

Handle data delivery and output.

Veraset handles data drops in S3 buckets. You can list where these scheduled files go with `list_s3_delivery_folders`. To actually use the file, run `generate_download_link` to get a temporary pre-signed URL for an S3 download.
