# Using with Perplexity Desktop
Perplexity Desktop Instructions (https://www.perplexity.ai/help-center/en/articles/11502712-local-and-remote-mcps-for-perplexity)
Step 1 - Open your account settings and click on Connectors
Note: Before you can add MCP Connectors, you have to install the helper application PerplexityXPC so that Perplexity can securely connect to your local MCP servers.
Step 2 - Add connector -> Advanced Tab. Copy the below JSON and use your actual credentials - $TD_USER , $TD_PASSWORD, $TD_HOSTNAME, $TD_DEFAULT_DB
```json
{
"args" : [
"--directory",
"/path/of/your/teradata-mcp-server",
"run",
"teradata-mcp-server"
],
"command" : "uv",
"env" : {
"DATABASE_URI" : "teradata://$TD_USER:$TD_PASSWORD@$TD_HOSTNAME:1025/$TD_DEFAULT_DB"
}
}
```
Note: you will need to modify the directory path in the args for your system, this needs to be a complete path. You may also need to have a complete path to uv in the command as well.
