Before connecting any AI client to DataHawk MCP, run through this one-time setup so the connection works cleanly.

1. Confirm your DataHawk plan supports MCP

MCP access is enabled by default on active DataHawk workspaces. If you're not sure whether your plan is eligible, ping [email protected].

2. Get your MCP endpoint URL

<https://mcp.datahawk.co/mcp>

Keep this tab open — you'll paste the URL into your AI client in the next step.

3. Connect using OAuth

Follow your tool documentation to connect the MCP using OAuth, you will be directed to your DataHawk app to authenticate once. Most tools (Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, and Cursor) all use OAuth.

4. Verify your data sources are connected

MCP only returns data for the marketplaces and accounts you've already connected in DataHawk. Before testing, confirm:

• Your Amazon Seller Central or Vendor Central accounts are linked and syncing
• Your Amazon Advertising account is linked
• (Optional) DSP is linked if you want DSP metrics in MCP responses

If anything shows a red "disconnected" state, fix it before connecting your AI — MCP will return empty results for missing sources.

5. You're ready

Head to the setup guide for your AI client of choice. The most common:

• Use DataHawk MCP in Claude
• Use DataHawk MCP in ChatGPT
• Use DataHawk MCP in Cursor / Windsurf
