Setup guide

Link DigiData to Claude

This guide describes the route for DigiData via a remote MCP connector in Claude. Anthropic currently calls custom connectors beta; plan and organization rights may differ.

Last content checked: 27 juli 2026

MCP server URL

https://mcp.digi-data.nl/mcp

Use one fixed Streamable HTTP URL; DigiData OAuth determines the tenant and allowed data.

Conditions

  • A DigiData administrator and synchronized data
  • An explicit selection of sources, tables and columns
  • A supported Claude plan and consent according to organizational policy
  • With Team or Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner must add the connector for the organization

60-second overview

  1. Open Claude → Settings → Connectors
  2. For an organization, choose Organization connectors and add a custom connector
  3. Enter https://mcp.digi-data.nl/mcp
  4. Click Connect, log in to DigiData, complete 2FA and confirm the limited access
  5. Enable the connector via Search and tools and test list_sources

Current Anthropic Steps

Anthropic supports remote MCP via Streamable HTTP and an OAuth flow with token refresh. Individual and organizational plans have different management rights; check the current official guide.

  • Pro and Max: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector
  • Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the organization connector; members then connect individually
  • Use Connect to start OAuth and review the requested permission
  • Activate only the relevant read-only tools for the conversation

Safe start prompts

  • Which data sources and tables are available to me? Don't show records yet.
  • What is the last synchronization time of Exact Online?
  • Show the 20 largest open invoices with customer, amount and due date.
  • Group this year's turnover per month and state the table and reference date used.
  • Which columns can I use to analyze project margin? First describe the diagram.

Change or revoke access

Change the allowed sources, tables and columns in DigiData. Revoke the connection in DigiData to immediately block further tool calls and token refreshes; In Claude Settings → Connectors, also choose Remove when you no longer use the connector.

Troubleshooting

  • 401: log in again; the session or access token may have expired or been revoked.
  • 403: Check your DigiData role, workspace policy, and the tables and columns allowed for the connection.
  • 429: wait briefly and reduce the demand; the connection protects tenant and database with limits.
  • Timeout: request fewer records or columns and use a narrower date filter.
  • Missing table: Verify that the source is synced and the table is explicitly allowed.
  • Outdated data: first ask for the synchronization status and last successful synchronization.
  • IP policy: the cloud provider does not use the customer's browser IP; a separate, explicit tenant policy applies to MCP.

Privacy at Claude

DigiData only returns data that is allowed for this connection and does not use customer questions or company data to train models. Once data is sent to ChatGPT, Claude or another chosen assistant, that provider processes its own copy under that provider's contract, subscription, settings and retention periods. DigiData therefore cannot promise that every configuration of an external assistant has the same data policy.
