  • Connect compatible AI clients to Salesforce's documented MCP capabilities.
Not ideal for
  • The MCP URL is organization-specific and tools are served only when the tenant supports them. Results follow the connecting user's existing Glean permissions and enterprise ACLs.

Access and data
AuthenticationGlean OAuth / organization SSO, using the configured Glean MCP server for the tenant.Follow only the publisher source; credential storage, scopes, and revocation remain under review.
CostNo public standalone MCP fee was found in the reviewed official material. Glean is an enterprise product with commercial pricing rather than a public free MCP tier.Publisher plans, API usage, infrastructure, or per-action charges may apply; MCP100 has not published a cost conclusion.
PermissionsAccess is governed through Glean's existing user permissions and knowledge graph. The effective content/tool surface depends on the configured MCP server and the user's organization access.Exact permissions and read/write boundaries have not completed MCP100 review.
Data handlingNot documented in the reviewed sources. The reviewed Glean MCP usage/configuration pages do not provide a specific MCP retention or training statement.Candidate-specific retention, subprocess, telemetry, and model-data behavior remain review items.
Limitations
Tradeoffs
  • Shortlist evidence is sufficient for identity, setup and task value; authenticated runtime tool-schema measurement and exhaustive security certification remain out of scope.
  • Publisher attribution supports discovery, but does not replace an independent permissions and usability review.
Risk contextGlean can expose enterprise search, documents, people, code, chat and other connected knowledge according to the user's permissions. Depending on the configured tools, it can also create/update/share artifacts.Use a test account, least privilege, read-only controls where available, and explicit approval for mutations.
