| Client coverage | ||
| Client coverage details | Not documented | Claude Code✓ Local stdio Claude Desktop✓ Local stdio Codex✓ Local stdio VS Code✓ Local stdio Cursor✓ Local stdio OpenCode✓ Local stdio |
| Client coverage note | Local stdio runs on your computer. Streamable HTTP connects to a remotely hosted MCP server. | |
| Access and data | ||
| Authentication | Glean OAuth / organization SSO, using the configured Glean MCP server for the tenant. | The official package documents Tableau authentication and server connection configuration. |
| Cost | No 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. | The MCP integration has no separately verified MCP100 price conclusion. Publisher subscriptions, API usage, compute, storage, and AI-client charges may apply. |
| Permissions | Access 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. | Tableau site roles, content permissions, and connected-data policies determine what the server can return. |
| Data handling | Not documented in the reviewed sources. The reviewed Glean MCP usage/configuration pages do not provide a specific MCP retention or training statement. | Authorized service data and tool results pass through the MCP server to the connected AI client. Review the publisher and client data policies before using sensitive analytics & data information. |
| Limitations | ||
| Tradeoffs |
|
|
| Risk context | Glean 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. | Workbook metadata and query results may expose business-sensitive information or inherited data access. Use a test environment where practical, least-privilege credentials, narrowly enabled tools, and explicit confirmation for mutations. MCP100 did not execute third-party server code during this documentation review. |
