Introducing MCP Connectors

MCP Connectors have been introduced to enhance the Cube agent's ability to provide context-rich answers by integrating with existing tools like Notion, Linear, Sentry, and CRMs, allowing it to access information beyond raw data metrics. These connectors operate on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard that enables the agent to use external tools in conjunction with semantic-layer queries, without altering the foundational data definitions and access policies. By leveraging outbound integrations, the Cube agent can draw upon information from various sources to deliver comprehensive insights into business questions, such as understanding the reasons behind changes in key metrics. Administrators can manage these connectors through a directory of vetted integrations or by setting up custom connections. This system ensures that the agent respects existing permissions and access controls, while allowing users to query and build semantic models with enriched metadata from external sources. Overall, MCP Connectors expand the agent's capabilities by bridging the gap between numerical data and qualitative context, facilitating more informed decision-making and seamless integration of analytical workflows into everyday business processes.
