Claude Desktop connects to Adobe Analytics through the CData MCP Server for Adobe Analytics using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

When you launch Claude, it automatically detects MCP connections registered during setup. These connections are created and saved using the MCP Configuration Tool, which is installed with the MCP Server.

Each saved connection is recognized by Claude and can be referenced by name when asking questions.

Installing Claude

Claude Desktop is a standalone application that enables natural language querying across supported data sources using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

To connect to Adobe Analytics via MCP, you first need to install the Claude Desktop application.

You can download the latest version from the official Claude Download Page.

After installing Claude Desktop, you can configure your MCP connection using the CData MCP Driver for Adobe Analytics.

How Claude Uses the Server

When you ask Claude a question, it launches the corresponding MCP Server connection, reads the available tool descriptions provided by the connector, and generates a secure query in the background.

There is no need to write SQL or teach Claude how to query your data. Each tool is self-describing, and Claude consumes those descriptions to determine how to retrieve the right information.

Example Prompts

After setup, you can ask Claude natural-language questions like:

• "Which pages do people visit most often on our website, and how long do they stay on each page?"
• "What was our total revenue last month?"
• "Show me how many people came to the site from our last email campaign. Of those people, how many people bought something?"
• "Which product category had the highest number of orders last week?"
• "Compare revenue from mobile versus desktop users in Q1."
• "What are our key engagement metrics this week?"
• "Compare the bounce rate for paid versus organic traffic."
• "Which products had the most views but the fewest purchases?"
• "I want to know where people are dropping off during the checkout process."
• "How well did our spring sale perform compared to last year's spring sale? I want to see traffic, conversions, and revenue."

Claude securely executes the query using the MCP Server and responds using the live results from Adobe Analytics.
