MCP integrations
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard way for AI tools to read other systems. clariBI's catalog lists 86 vendors that publish an MCP server; it is available on the trial, Starter, Professional and Enterprise.
How it works
Once a vendor is connected, clariBI reads it in two ways. When the source syncs, it calls the vendor's read tools that list records (charges, deals, issues) and stores the rows, so dashboards, reports and forecasts can use them. When you ask a question in Ask clariBI, it can also call the vendor's tools live and use the result in the answer.
Only read tools are used. Tools that create, change or delete anything are filtered out before any call is made.

Free and Lite have no MCP access. Shopify Storefront reads a shop's public product catalog, not orders, customers or revenue.
Connect a vendor
- Open Settings > Integrations, click Add Data Source and search for the vendor. MCP vendors carry an MCP label in Apps.
- Sign in or enter credentials. What the vendor asks for varies:
- Most: Authorize with <vendor> opens the vendor's sign-in window; approve access and the window closes. clariBI registers itself with the vendor's server, so you do not create an app or copy client IDs.
- Some: an API key or other values from your vendor account, which clariBI checks before saving.
- A few: the client ID and secret of an OAuth app you registered with the vendor.
- Public servers: no credentials, just Connect.
- Shopify Storefront: the shop handle.
- Some vendors then ask you to pick an account, project or property.
- Name the data source and save.
Credentials and tokens are encrypted before they are stored, and each connection belongs to one organization.
Disconnecting
An Owner or Administrator can disconnect a vendor. The stored credentials are erased and the sources built on it stop syncing. The connection record stays for the audit history; connecting the same account again reuses it.
Custom MCP server (Starter and up)
For a vendor or internal service that runs an MCP server but is not in the catalog, choose the custom MCP entry and fill in:
- Endpoint URL: must be HTTPS. Addresses in private networks, loopback addresses and cloud metadata addresses are refused.
- Server Name
- API Key / Bearer Token
- Header name (default
Authorization) and Scheme prefix (defaultBearer; leave empty to send the key as is)
Custom servers do not get an automatic dashboard.
When something goes wrong
- Authorization fails or expires: the grant may have been revoked in the vendor's settings. Connect the vendor again with the same account.
- Errors about permissions or scopes: disconnect and connect again so the vendor asks for the current permissions.
- A tool you expected is missing: only read tools are used. If a read tool is missing, write to support@claribi.com.
The public list with a page per vendor is at claribi.com/integrations.
The trial lasts 14 days, includes 50 AI credits and does not ask for a card. When it ends, the account moves to the Free plan and keeps its data.
