MCP App Area Beta

Connect Marquis IQ to Claude Desktop with MCP

Marquis IQ MCP Server Connections let approved users ask Claude Desktop questions about Marquis IQ data using a secure, authorized Claude custom connector.

MCP is currently in beta. Access, available tools, and supported datasets may vary by customer. If you do not see MCP connection options in Marquis IQ, contact support@marquisdata.com.

Connect

Use your Marquis IQ access

The Claude connector uses approved Marquis IQ access so Claude can work with the data available to your account.

Ask

Start with natural language

Ask for AP invoices, purchase orders, supplier activity, customer data, and other available Marquis IQ datasets.

Analyze

Iterate in chat

Follow up with filters, summaries, rankings, comparisons, and export-ready result sets without rebuilding a report.

Prerequisites

MCP access must be authorized before a user can connect Claude Desktop to Marquis IQ.

Required Access

Each user must be added to the appropriate Microsoft Entra group by a designated Marquis Data Security Administrator.
Each user must be specifically granted row-level and column-level access to each dataset within the client's Marquis IQ instance.
