Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fivetran": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "fivetran-mcp"

        "FIVETRAN_API_SECRET": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add fivetran --env FIVETRAN_API_KEY=your-value --env FIVETRAN_API_SECRET=your-value -- uvx fivetran-mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

Common questions

Is Fivetran MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: FIVETRAN_API_KEY, FIVETRAN_API_SECRET

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.3.1) reached the registry 9 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Fivetran MCP Server

Note: This repository is built and maintained entirely by Claude Code, Anthropic's AI coding assistant.

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for controlling Fivetran data pipelines. Enables AI assistants like Claude to manage syncs, monitor connection status, and control data pipelines through natural language.

Features

List connections - View all Fivetran connections with status
Check sync status - Get detailed status for any connection including tasks and warnings
Trigger syncs - Start syncs on demand
Historical resync - Trigger full data resync or resync specific tables
Pause/Resume - Control connection scheduling
List groups - View all destination groups
Test connection - Diagnose connectivity and configuration issues
Schema visibility - View schemas, tables, and columns for any connection
Reload schema - Refresh schema configuration from the source

Quick Start

Step 1: Get Fivetran API Credentials

Log in to Fivetran Dashboard
Click your username (top right corner)
Click API Key
Click Generate API key
Copy both the API Key and API Secret (secret shown only once!)

See Fivetran API Getting Started for more details.

Step 2: Store Credentials

Add to your ~/.env.local (or equivalent):

# Fivetran API

export FIVETRAN_API_KEY="your-api-key" export FIVETRAN_API_SECRET="your-api-secret"

Then reload:

source ~/.env.local

Step 3: Verify Credentials

Test that your credentials work:

curl -s -X GET "https://api.fivetran.com/v1/account/info" \

-H "Accept: application/json" \ -H "Authorization: Basic $(echo -n "$FIVETRAN_API_KEY:$FIVETRAN_API_SECRET" | base64)"

Expected response:

{"code":"Success","data":{"account_id":"...","account_name":"..."}}

Step 4: Configure Claude Code

Add to your ~/.claude.json:

"mcpServers": { "fivetran": { "type": "stdio", "command": "uvx", "args": ["fivetran-mcp@latest"], "env": { "FIVETRAN_API_KEY": "${FIVETRAN_API_KEY}", "FIVETRAN_API_SECRET": "${FIVETRAN_API_SECRET}" } } } }

Step 5: Restart Claude Code

Restart Claude Code to load the new MCP server. You should now have access to Fivetran tools.
