Implementation Reference
- main.py:659-694 (handler)The core handler function for the 'superset_chart_create' tool. It constructs a payload from the input parameters and makes a POST request to Superset's /api/v1/chart/ endpoint to create a new chart (slice). The function uses decorators for authentication (@requires_auth) and error handling (@handle_api_errors). The @mcp.tool() decorator registers this function as an MCP tool.
