Quick Start
Installation
Installing via Smithery
To install Lightdash MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:
Manual Installation
Configuration
- LIGHTDASH_API_KEY: Your Lightdash PAT
- LIGHTDASH_API_URL: The API base URL
Usage
The lightdash-mcp-server supports two transport modes: **Stdio** (default) and **HTTP**.
Stdio Transport (Default)
1. Start the MCP server:
2. Edit your MCP configuration json:
HTTP Transport (Streamable HTTP)
1. Start the MCP server in HTTP mode:
This starts the server using StreamableHTTPServerTransport, making it accessible via HTTP at http://localhost:8080/mcp.
2. Configure your MCP client to connect via HTTP:
**For Claude Desktop and other MCP clients:**
Edit your MCP configuration json to use the url field instead of command and args:
**For programmatic access:**
Use the streamable HTTP client transport:
**Note:** When using HTTP mode, ensure the environment variables LIGHTDASH_API_KEY and LIGHTDASH_API_URL are set in the environment where the server is running, as they cannot be passed through MCP client configuration.
See examples/list_spaces_http.ts for a complete example of connecting to the HTTP server programmatically.
Development
Available Scripts
- npm run dev - Start the server in development mode with hot reloading (stdio transport)
- npm run dev:http - Start the server in development mode with HTTP transport on port 8080
- npm run build - Build the project for production
