MCP Access Guidance

The MCP Server endpoint allows approved clients to query Mini DBA monitoring data. Use it only for trusted tools and users who should have access to database performance and history. Create separate API keys per client or automation where possible so unused access can be removed without disrupting everything.

Before enabling an MCP client, confirm the network path, endpoint URL, key storage method, and data exposure policy. Monitoring data may include server names, database names, query text, timings, and operational history. Treat that data as sensitive, especially in customer or production environments.

If a client cannot connect, check the endpoint URL, API key, engine status, firewall rules, web proxy requirements, and Service Log. Remove keys that are no longer in use.

MCP Server Settings FAQ

Should I share one API key across all clients?

No. Separate keys make rotation, auditing, and revocation easier.

What data can MCP clients access?

Approved clients can query Mini DBA monitoring and historical performance data exposed by the MCP endpoint.

What if an API key is exposed?

Delete or rotate the key immediately and review any clients or logs that may have used it.
