Workshop: From terminal to dashboard with Metabase MCP + CLI
· 45 minutes
About this event
In this workshop, Stephen Tracy, analytics educator and creator of Analytics Udemy courses, walks through how to use the Metabase CLI and MCP server for AI data exploration that runs on your permissions and your metrics.
You'll learn:
- When to reach for the Metabase CLI versus the MCP server, and how the two fit together
- How to connect Claude to Metabase over the MCP server and ask questions that come back as both answers and interactive charts
- How to install and authenticate the CLI, then run commands to inspect and query your data
- Build a real dashboard through the agent, end to end, from the terminal
- Prompting well enough that the agent builds a dashboard you'd actually keep
A session for practitioners: analysts, analytics engineers, and technical PMs who work in Metabase day to day and want a real workflow to take home. You'll leave with an end-to-end workflow you can run on your own Metabase instance right away.
