Before you connect
Questions about Metabase.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can I use the Metabase MCP to find specific reports?
Yes, you can use the search capability to find any reports, dashboards, or tables across your entire Metabase instance using plain English keywords.
How does the Metabase MCP help with SQL auditing?
It allows your agent to pull the exact SQL logic and visualization rules behind any specific card so you can verify how metrics are calculated.
Can I see my database connections with the Metabase MCP?
Yes, you can ask your agent to list the physical database integrations that your Metabase platform is currently connected to.
Will the Metabase MCP help me organize my BI folders?
It lets you browse and list all your BI collections, making it much easier to understand and navigate your reporting taxonomy.
Is there a way to see dashboard layouts using the Metabase MCP?
Yes, you can request the layout matrix for any dashboard to see exactly how cards and filters are arranged in the UI.
Can I search for keywords across all my Metabase dashboards?
Yes, the search capability scans your entire Metabase instance for Dashboards, Cards, and tables that match your specific keywords.
Does this work with self-hosted Metabase instances?
Yes. You just need to provide your full Metabase Base URL (e.g., http://metabase.your-domain.com). Your agent will connect securely to your private instance using your API Key.
Can I see the SQL code behind a specific Metabase card through my agent?
Yes. Use the get_card capability with a specific Card ID. Your agent will retrieve the complete mapping logic, exposing the underlying SQL query (if it's a SQL question) or the structural query parameters used to generate the visualization.
Can my agent list all databases currently connected to Metabase?
Absolutely. Use the list_databases capability to identify all physical data warehouse integrations. Your agent will report the database names, types (e.g., PostgreSQL, Snowflake), and internal IDs available for querying.
One connection away
