DX’s MCP server exposes Data Cloud and software catalog context, including snapshot queries, catalog entities, relationships, and scorecards.

​
Prerequisites

  • A TrueFoundry account with permission to add MCP servers.
  • A DX account with Data Cloud access.
  • Personal or organization tokens with the required read scopes.

​
Create a DX Token

Use a personal access token for per-user attribution, or an organization token for shared read-only access. Enable only the scopes required:
CapabilityScope
Data Cloud readssnapshots:read
Software catalogcatalog:read
Scorecardsscorecards:read

​
Register in TrueFoundry

Add a remote MCP server with:
FieldValue
Namedx
URLhttps://ai.getdx.com/mcp
AuthenticationAPI Key or bearer token
For per-user tokens, choose Individual Credentials with Authorization: Bearer {{API_KEY}} and have users add Auth Overrides. For a shared organization token, choose shared credentials.

​
Security Notes

Personal tokens follow each user’s DX permissions. Organization tokens run as a shared identity, so keep scopes narrow and rotate them from the DX admin settings.
