What MCP Dataverse does

According to its repository: “Microsoft Dataverse: entity CRUD, FetchXML and OData queries, metadata inspection, workflow execution, audit logs and Power Platform integration.”

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard plug between an AI agent and an outside service: once the server is connected, its tools show up in the agent, which decides when to call them. MCP Dataverse is listed under Databases, a category of 138 servers in the directory, where it ranks #108 by stars.

Topics declared by the repository: dataverse, microsoft-dataverse, power-platform.

Installing and connecting MCP Dataverse

Distribution modes declared in the official MCP registry:

  • npm package (Node.js, usually started with npx)

It works with any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and most recent agents). You add one entry to the client's MCP configuration: server name, start command or URL, environment variables. Project language: TypeScript.

Security: what to check

Connecting an MCP server means installing software that talks straight to your agent: it runs with your rights and the model trusts its tool descriptions. The risk therefore depends on what it can touch and how far its code can be trusted.

None of the risk signals we track (system access, secrets, missing licence, abandonment) applies to MCP Dataverse. That does not replace reading the code.

Good practice: grant only the rights needed (least privilege), require human approval for irreversible actions, and run the AI agent security check.

Project activity and maintenance

Created on February 21, 2026, the codeurali/mcp-dataverse repository has 18 stars and 2 forks, with 0 open issues. It has more stars than 36% of the servers in the directory. It received changes this month. Version published in the registry: 0.7.10 (October 13, 2026).

Stars measure attention, not quality: a recent, heavily promoted project can collect them fast, while a useful but niche server will have few.
