Model Context Protocol

Claude drives DataLion — directly

DataLion's Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration lets Claude and other AI agents operate DataLion directly — no clicking through menus.

Describe your goal in plain language and the AI does the work inside DataLion, from the first project to the finished report.

  • List, read, create and edit projects
  • Browse data sources and import Excel data
  • Manage reports and codebooks
  • Add and remove widgets via AI
Claude lists DataLion projects and prints the project variables from the codebook as a table

Self-service

Self-service Claude Desktop integration

Admins enable a dedicated integration page where users generate a scoped API token and download a ready-to-install MCP bundle for Claude Desktop — with clear settings for the DataLion URL, write access, SSL and debug logging.

Secure by design: the local bridge starts read-only, write tools are gated behind an explicit setting, a connection test is built in, and sensitive debug data is redacted.

  • Scoped API tokens per user
  • Local bridge read-only by default
  • Built-in connection test
  • Rate limits and redacted debug logs

AI-powered data recognition

From data to deck

Automated dashboards & reports
