Metabase integration for multiplayer collaboration with AI agents using Claude Code or Codex

One governed connection your whole team and its AI agents can share, with approved actions and human review, so working in Metabase never means pasting credentials into a prompt.

Use Metabase from Claude Code

Bring Metabase context into engineering work while Type keeps app access attached to the teammate and workspace.

Automate Metabase with Codex

Let coding agents ask for the right app action, preserve conversation context, and keep humans in the approval loop.

Connect open agent workflows

Use Type as the collaboration layer around OpenClaw and other LLM workflows that need app access.

Analytics & Data

What the Metabase integration exposes

Metabase is an open-source business intelligence tool that lets you ask questions about your data and visualize answers as charts, graphs, and dashboards.

One connection, many teammates

Connect Metabase once, then decide which teammates can use it for threads, automations, skills, and coding work.

Representative actions

  • Create Bookmark

    Tool to create a new bookmark for a Metabase item (card, dashboard, collection, or dataset). Use when the user wants to bookmark a specific item for quick access.

  • Run Card Pivot Query

    Tool to run a pivot table query on a Metabase card (question). Use when you need to execute the query associated with a specific card and get results formatted for pivot table visualization. The response includes data rows, column metadata, query status, and execution timing.

  • Run Card Query

    Tool to run the query associated with a Card and return its results. Use when you need to execute a card's query with optional parameters and cache control.

  • Copy Dashboard

    Tool to create a copy of an existing Metabase dashboard. Use when you need to duplicate a dashboard with optional customization of name, description, and collection placement. Supports both shallow copy (references same cards) and deep copy (duplicates all cards).

  • Run Dashboard Pivot DashCard Query

    Tool to run a pivot table query for a specific DashCard. Use when you need to execute a pivot table query on a dashboard card with optional parameter filters.

Connection

API and auth details

Metabase exposes an OpenAPI-described API for BI administration and analytics workflows. Integrations can manage users, permissions, databases, questions/cards, dashboards, collections, alerts, subscriptions, embeds, queries, metadata, and AI agent/MCP-adjacent analytics functionality using API keys or sessions.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Metabase

Can Claude Code use Metabase?

Yes. Type lets an AI teammate use connected Metabase actions from a governed workspace context, so Claude Code work can reference the app without copying credentials into a local prompt.

Can Codex work with Metabase through Type?

Yes. Codex can collaborate through Type with app context, skills, and approved actions. The Metabase catalog entry includes public integration details and example capabilities where available.

Is this the same as a Metabase MCP server?

Type exposes connected app capabilities to AI teammates and coding agents through Type's integration layer. Teams use it when they want shared app access, human review, and teammate-level permissions around agent work.
