Dataiku MCP
Drive Dataiku DSS projects, flows, and ops APIs from your agent when you automate data science pipelines on a DSS instance.
Overview
Dataiku MCP is a MCP server for the Build phase that calls Dataiku DSS project, flow, and operations APIs from your agent.
What is this MCP server?
- npm package dataiku-mcp v1.1.1 with stdio MCP transport
- Covers Dataiku DSS project, flow, and operations APIs from one server
- Requires DATAIKU_URL and DATAIKU_API_KEY; optional DATAIKU_PROJECT_KEY default
- Open-source server at github.com/clssck/Dataiku_MCP for self-hosted DSS instances
- Server version 1.1.1
- Two required env vars: DATAIKU_URL and DATAIKU_API_KEY
- Optional default DATAIKU_PROJECT_KEY for scoped requests
What problem does it solve?
Teams on Dataiku DSS repeat manual clicks and one-off API scripts when agents cannot reach project and flow operations safely.
Who is it for?
Solo builders or small data teams with a Dataiku DSS instance who want agent-driven project and flow operations.
Skip if: Builders without Dataiku DSS, or pure notebook-only workflows with no DSS API access.
What do I get? / Deliverables
With URL and API key configured, your agent can orchestrate DSS projects and flows through MCP instead of fragile custom scripts.
- Stdio MCP server connected to your DSS instance
- Agent-accessible project, flow, and operations API calls against Dataiku

Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Dataiku MCP for?
It is for developers and data engineers using Dataiku DSS who want Claude Code, Cursor, or similar agents to manage projects, flows, and ops via MCP.
When should I use Dataiku MCP?
Use it while building or maintaining DSS-backed pipelines when you need the agent to query projects, adjust flows, or run operational API tasks on your instance.
How do I add Dataiku MCP to my agent?
Add the dataiku-mcp npm MCP server with stdio transport and set DATAIKU_URL, DATAIKU_API_KEY, and optionally DATAIKU_PROJECT_KEY in your client environment.
