Description
MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers can be connected to AI agents within AI Studio.
This allows agents to communicate with external systems and tools through a standardized MCP interface.
MCP servers can be managed from the dedicated MCP tab inside AI Studio and can also be attached directly to agents through the agent properties panel.
MCP support is currently only available for OpenAI-based AI agents.
Before You Start
Before an MCP server can be configured, a valid connection for the MCP server must first be created in the platform.
Connections are managed centrally and are reused for authentication and secure communication with external systems.
Navigate to:
Data Studio → Connections
Creating a Connection
Navigate to Data Studio → Connections
Click Add Connection
Configure the connection settings
Save the connection
Setting Secret Values
After creating the connection, the actual secret values (such as API keys or tokens) must be configured separately.
This ensures sensitive information is stored securely and is not directly visible in the connection configuration.
Steps
Navigate to Data Studio → Connections
Locate the created connection
Click the three-dot menu
Select Set values
Enter the required secret values
A dialog will open showing the configured headers where the secret values can be entered.
Opening MCP Management
Navigate to:
The MCP overview displays all configured MCP servers.
Creating an MCP Server
Click the + button inside the MCP tab to create a new MCP server.
The following dialog will open:
Property

Security Notice
When connecting to external MCP servers, data may be shared with external systems.
Only use trusted MCP endpoints and avoid sharing sensitive information without proper authorization.
Using MCP Servers in Agents
Configured MCP servers can be attached to AI agents through the agent configuration.
Navigate to:
Open an agent and expand the MCP section inside the properties panel.
Available MCP servers can then be selected from the MCP servers dropdown.
