What is the Honeycomb MCP Server?

Connect your Honeycomb.io observability platform to any AI agent and take full control of your telemetry data, query specifications, and incident markers through natural conversation.

What you can do

Dataset Oversight — List all event sources, retrieve detailed metadata, and monitor last access times for your datasets.
Query Management — Define new query specifications and execute them to retrieve granular performance insights.
Marker Automation — Create timeline annotations (e.g., for deployments or outages) to contextualize your data visualization.
Schema Insights — List and inspect columns within specific datasets to understand your event structure.
Team Collaboration — Access shared boards and retrieve information about your Honeycomb team configuration.
Incident Analysis — Use AI to run complex queries and retrieve results for rapid troubleshooting and RCA.

How it works

Subscribe to this server
Enter your Honeycomb API Key and select your Region (US or EU)

Who is this for?

SREs & DevOps — instantly retrieve query results and create markers during incident response.
Software Engineers — monitor the performance of new deployments by inspecting specific dataset trends.
Platform Leads — maintain a real-time overview of dataset usage and board sharing across the organization.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I find my Honeycomb API Key?

Log in to Honeycomb, go to Team Settings, and navigate to the API Keys section. You will be able to generate and copy your Team API Key from there. Ensure you also note your account's region.

Which region should I select?

If your browser URL starts with ui.eu1.honeycomb.io, select EU. Otherwise, select US. Using the correct region is required for the integration to connect to the right API cluster.

Can I run a query and get the data back?

Yes! Use the run_query tool with a valid query ID. It will return a result ID, which you can then pass to the get_query_result tool once the analysis is complete.

Is the integration secure for telemetry data?

Absolutely. The integration uses official Honeycomb Team API keys over HTTPS. Your credentials and queried data are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
