Before you connect

Questions about TiDB Cloud.

The practical details behind the request, access and result.

Can the TiDB Cloud MCP run SQL queries?

No, this Connector is for infrastructure management. You can't run queries, but you can see your projects and instances.

Does the TiDB Cloud MCP work with Cursor?

Yes, you can connect it to Cursor to check your database clusters and project IDs while you code.

How do I use the TiDB Cloud MCP to see my instances?

Just ask your agent to list instances in a specific project, and it will show you the tiers and statuses.

Can the TiDB Cloud MCP help with project IDs?

Yes, it can fetch specific project details so you don't have to hunt for them in the web console.

Is the TiDB Cloud MCP for distributed SQL?

Yes, it works with TiDB Cloud distributed SQL and helps you monitor your resource allocation.

Do I need my API keys for the TiDB Cloud MCP?

You'll need your Public and Private API keys from your TiDB Cloud account to connect the Connector to your agent.

Can I see both serverless and dedicated clusters with this server?

Yes. Use list_instances to see TiDB X instances (Serverless/Starter/Premium) and list_clusters to view your Dedicated cluster infrastructure.

How do I get the ID of a specific project to query its instances?

You can run the list_projects capability first. It will return a list of all accessible projects along with their unique IDs, which you can then use in list_instances or list_clusters.

Does this capability allow me to delete or create new clusters?

No. The current version of the TiDB Cloud Connector is focused on discovery and inspection (read-only operations) such as list_projects, get_project, and list_clusters to ensure safe infrastructure monitoring.
