## Introduction

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, available on the web, in the desktop app, and on mobile. Cowork is its agent for knowledge work, and it runs on all of those surfaces too. Connected to your apps, Claude can work with your files and services to accomplish complex tasks on your behalf.
This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Google Data Studio account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to find shared marketing reports in organization, list dashboards owned by analytics team, audit permissions for finance reports, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.
Setup is the same on Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork, and you only need to do it once. The connector is tied to your account, so it's available in all three.

## What is the Google Data Studio MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Google Data Studio MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Google Data Studio account. It provides structured and secure access to your reports, data sources, and their sharing permissions, so your agent can search assets, review access, add members, replace permissions, and revoke access on your behalf.
- Report and data source search: Have your agent search the Google Data Studio reports and data sources you can access and return relevant asset details.
- Permission review: Let the agent inspect who currently has access to a report or data source and see each person's assigned role.
- Member access management: Direct your agent to add one or more people to a permitted role for a report or data source and confirm their access.
- Complete permission replacement: Instruct your agent to replace mutable sharing permissions while preserving the asset's owners.
- Access revocation: Have your agent remove selected people from all removable roles and confirm whether their access was revoked or already absent.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `GOOGLE_DATA_STUDIO_ADD_MEMBERS_TO_ASSET_ROLE` | Add Members to Asset Role | Ensure one or more members belong to a mutable asset role and verify each requested membership after the write. |
| `GOOGLE_DATA_STUDIO_GET_ASSET_PERMISSIONS` | Get Asset Permissions | Get every populated permission role and the current concurrency etag for one Google Data Studio asset. |
| `GOOGLE_DATA_STUDIO_REPLACE_ASSET_PERMISSIONS` | Replace Asset Permissions | Replace all four mutable permission-role memberships for a Google Data Studio asset, preserving owners and rejecting stale etags. Every mutable role is required; pass an empty list to clear that role. |
| `GOOGLE_DATA_STUDIO_REVOKE_ASSET_MEMBER_PERMISSIONS` | Revoke Asset Member Permissions | Remove one or more members from every removable role on a Google Data Studio asset and verify whether each was removed or already absent. |
| `GOOGLE_DATA_STUDIO_SEARCH_ASSETS` | Search Assets | Search accessible Google Data Studio reports or data sources and return one page of asset metadata. |

## Supported Triggers

None listed.

## Troubleshooting

### 1. Why does Claude not use the Composio connector for Google Data Studio?

The connector can show as connected, but Claude must use it in each Google Data Studio conversation.
- Click + at the lower left of the chat, or type /.
- Hover Connectors.
- Turn on Composio.
- Ask Claude to connect to Google Data Studio again.

### 2. Why does Claude show an MCP server error before Google Data Studio connects?

Claude can show Couldn't reach the MCP server or Authorization with the MCP server failed when you add the connector for Google Data Studio.
- Check that the connector URL is https://connect.composio.dev/mcp.
- Connectors run from Anthropic's cloud, so your device network is usually not the problem.
- Add the connector again from Customize > Connectors, then ask Claude to connect Google Data Studio.
- If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

### 3. Why does the Google Data Studio authorization link not work?

The Composio connector is one server. Your Google Data Studio account connects separately when Claude asks for it.
- If the browser does not open, or the link expires, ask Claude to retry the Google Data Studio connection.
- Composio creates a fresh Google Data Studio authorization link.
- Open that link in your browser and finish the Google Data Studio sign-in.

### 4. Why do Google Data Studio actions fail after they worked before?

The Google Data Studio connection can expire or lose permission.
- Ask Claude to inspect the Google Data Studio connection.
- If the connection is unhealthy, disconnect it when Claude prompts you.
- Reconnect the Google Data Studio account and retry the action.
- If Claude shows a permission prompt, approve it before Claude changes data in Google Data Studio.
- If the action still fails with a permission error, check that the connected account has that permission in Google Data Studio itself.

### 5. How do I switch to a different Google Data Studio account?

Claude can manage the Google Data Studio connection for you.
- Ask Claude to disconnect or delete the current Google Data Studio account.
- Ask Claude to connect Google Data Studio again.
- Open the new Composio authorization link for Google Data Studio.
- Sign in with the other Google Data Studio account in the browser.
- After the account connects, ask Claude to retry the Google Data Studio task.

### 6. Why is my Google Data Studio connection missing in Claude Desktop or on a Team plan?

The connector belongs to your Claude account, so your Google Data Studio connection works in Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork.
- In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
- Next to Composio, click ⋮ and click Clear cache.
- If Google Data Studio tools still do not appear, click ⋮, disconnect, remove the connector, and add it again.
- On Team or Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner must enable the connector before you can connect Google Data Studio.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Google Data Studio MCP server connects Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork to your Google Data Studio account through Composio. Once connected, Claude can use the available Google Data Studio tools and triggers to complete tasks on your behalf.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Google Data Studio MCP?

With a standalone Google Data Studio MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Google Data Studio tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Google Data Studio and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Claude Cowork?

Yes, you can. Claude Cowork fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Google Data Studio tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Google Data Studio while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Google Data Studio scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Google Data Studio data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
