A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for OpenMetadata, enabling seamless integration with MCP clients. This project provides a standardized way to interact with OpenMetadata through the Model Context Protocol.

This project implements a Model Context Protocol server that wraps OpenMetadata's REST API, allowing MCP clients to interact with OpenMetadata in a standardized way.

The server supports modular API group selection via command line arguments. Available API groups:

• table - Table entity management
• database - Database entity management
• databaseschema - Database schema management

• dashboard - Dashboard entity management
• chart - Chart entity management
• pipeline - Pipeline entity management
• topic - Topic entity management
• metrics - Metric entity management
• container - Container entity management
• report - Report entity management
• mlmodel - ML Model entity management

• user - User entity management
• team - Team entity management

• classification - Classification entity management
• glossary - Glossary and glossary terms management
• tag - Tag and tag category management

• bot - Bot entity management
• services - Service configurations and connection testing
• event - Event subscriptions and notifications

• lineage - Data lineage management
• usage - Usage analytics management
• search - Search and discovery operations

• test_case - Data quality test case management
• test_suite - Data quality test suite management

• policy - Access policies and security management
• role - Role-based access control management

• domain - Domain and data product management

You can specify which API groups to enable when running the server:

# Enable only core entities
python -m src.main --apis table,database,databaseschema
# Enable comprehensive data quality and governance
python -m src.main --apis test_case,test_suite,policy,role,tag,domain
# Enable all available APIs
python -m src.main --apis table,database,databaseschema,dashboard,chart,pipeline,topic,metrics,container,report,mlmodel,user,team,classification,glossary,tag,bot,services,event,lineage,usage,search,test_case,test_suite,policy,role,domain
# Use default selection (all implemented APIs)
python -m src.main

To install OpenMetadata MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @yangkyeongmo/mcp-server-openmetadata --client claude

Set one of the following authentication methods:

OPENMETADATA_HOST=<your-openmetadata-host>
OPENMETADATA_JWT_TOKEN=<your-jwt-token>

OPENMETADATA_HOST=<your-openmetadata-host>
OPENMETADATA_USERNAME=<your-username>
OPENMETADATA_PASSWORD=<your-password>

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json using one of the following authentication methods:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-openmetadata": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-server-openmetadata"],
      "env": {
        "OPENMETADATA_HOST": "https://your-openmetadata-host",
        "OPENMETADATA_JWT_TOKEN": "your-jwt-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-openmetadata": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-server-openmetadata"],
      "env": {
        "OPENMETADATA_HOST": "https://your-openmetadata-host",
        "OPENMETADATA_USERNAME": "your-username",
        "OPENMETADATA_PASSWORD": "your-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Alternative configuration using uv:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-openmetadata": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "/path/to/mcp-server-openmetadata",
        "run",
        "mcp-server-openmetadata"
      ],
      "env": {
        "OPENMETADATA_HOST": "https://your-openmetadata-host",
        "OPENMETADATA_JWT_TOKEN": "your-jwt-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-openmetadata": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "/path/to/mcp-server-openmetadata",
        "run",
        "mcp-server-openmetadata"
      ],
      "env": {
        "OPENMETADATA_HOST": "https://your-openmetadata-host",
        "OPENMETADATA_USERNAME": "your-username",
        "OPENMETADATA_PASSWORD": "your-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace /path/to/mcp-server-openmetadata with the actual path where you've cloned the repository.

You can also run the server manually:

python src/server.py

Options:

• --port: Port to listen on for SSE (default: 8000)
• --transport: Transport type (stdio/sse, default: stdio)
