Redash MCP Server

MCP server for the Redash API. Exposes Redash's core data operations as tools for the Model Context Protocol.

Setup

# Install dependencies
uv sync

# Set your Redash API key and URL
export REDASH_API_KEY=your_api_key
export REDASH_URL=https://redash.example.com

# Run the server
uv run python -m redash_mcp

By default the server uses the stdio transport for local MCP clients such as Claude Desktop.

Hosted MCP

The server can be deployed as a remote MCP endpoint over Streamable HTTP:

uv run python -m redash_mcp --transport streamable-http

Send your Redash API key in the request header:

Authorization: Key your_api_key

Configuration (Hosted / Streamable HTTP)

If your MCP client supports remote servers over HTTP, the JSON config should include the hosted URL and the Authorization header.

Example:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "redash": {
      "url": "https://your-mcp-host.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Key your_api_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Notes:

  • Replace your_api_key with your real Redash API key.

  • The header must be exactly Authorization.

  • The value must include the Key prefix.

Claude Code (CLI)

claude mcp add --transport http redash https://your-mcp-host.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Key your_api_key"

Replace your_api_key with your real Redash API key.

Configuration (Claude Desktop / stdio)

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "redash": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["--directory", "/absolute/path/to/redash-mcp-server", "run", "python", "-m", "redash_mcp"],
