# Connect AI Tools to Domo Using MCP

<Note>
  **Note:** This feature is in public open beta. To participate, simply follow the instructions in this article. Domo AI is available to customers on a consumption agreement. Those not on a consumption agreement can request a trial by reaching out to their Customer Success Manager (CSM).
</Note>

## Intro

This article explains how to connect Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or VS Code to Domo's MCP Server—using OAuth (recommended) or manual configuration—and verify your connection.

After you're connected, you can use your AI tool to:

* Query data in your Domo DataSets
* Query Document Collections stored in Domo
* Search across your Domo instance
* Summarize cards and dashboards (coming soon)

## Connect to the Domo Essentials MCP Server

* [Standard OAuth](/s/article/MCP-Standard-OAuth)
* [Manually Connect](/s/article/MCP-Manually-Connect)

## Consumption Considerations for MCP

Each tool call incurs an AI operation charge:

* Search incurs a few hundred tokens.
* Query incurs a few thousand tokens.
* Token usage varies by tool.

**Example**

The following examples show token usage for a Domo instance with approximately 100 DataSets:

**(Search)** What data do I have in Domo?

```
ai_service_operation: 1
Input tokens: 73
Output tokens: 0
```

**(Query)** How many miles did I ride last November?

```
ai_service_operation: 1
Input tokens: 2,124
Output tokens: 131
```
