## Introduction

Cowork is Anthropic's AI agent for knowledge work. Think of it as Claude Code for everything else. It works autonomously with your computer, local files, and applications to accomplish complex tasks.
This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Influxdb cloud account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to write temperature sensor data to bucket, add CPU usage graph to dashboard, update retention policy for analytics data, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

## What is Claude Cowork?

Claude Cowork is Anthropic's agent for general knowledge work. It can use your computer, files, and connected applications to complete longer-running tasks across your work tools.
With Composio Connect, Cowork can securely access apps like Influxdb cloud through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

## What is the Influxdb cloud MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Influxdb cloud MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your InfluxDB Cloud account. It provides structured and secure access to your time series data, letting your agent run queries, ingest new data, manage dashboards, and update user settings automatically.
- Real-time data ingestion and writing: Instantly send line protocol data points to your InfluxDB Cloud buckets for seamless time series collection and analytics.
- Automated dashboard cell management: Direct your agent to add new cells to existing dashboards, making it easy to visualize and monitor the latest metrics or results.
- Advanced query analysis and validation: Have the agent generate and inspect Flux query Abstract Syntax Trees (AST) to validate and debug your analytics scripts before running them.
- User and session management: Enable your agent to sign users in or out and even delete users by ID, supporting secure and automated access control.
- DBRP mapping updates and retrieval: Let your agent fetch or update Database Retention Policy (DBRP) mappings, so you can adapt your data retention and default policies on the fly.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_ADD_DASHBOARD_CELL` | Add Dashboard Cell | Tool to add a cell to a dashboard. Use when you want to add or copy a cell to an existing dashboard after verifying the dashboard exists. |
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_DELETE_USER` | Delete User | Delete a user from InfluxDB Cloud by their user ID. This action permanently removes a user from the InfluxDB Cloud organization. Requires an operator token with write:users permission to execute successfully. Use this when you need to remove a user's access to the InfluxDB Cloud organization. |
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_GENERATE_QUERY_AST` | Generate Flux Query AST | Generates an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) from a Flux query script. Use this tool to analyze the structure of a Flux query and validate its syntax. The AST shows the parsed structure but does not validate semantic correctness (e.g., whether buckets or fields exist). |
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_GET_DBRP` | Get DBRP Mapping | Retrieve a Database and Retention Policy (DBRP) mapping by ID from InfluxDB Cloud. DBRP mappings enable InfluxDB 1.x query compatibility by mapping old database/retention policy names to InfluxDB 2.x buckets. Use this action to: - Verify which bucket a 1.x database/retention policy maps to - Check if a mapping is the default for its database - Inspect mapping configuration before updating or querying data with 1.x APIs Prerequisites: You must have a valid DBRP mapping ID (obtain via listing DBRP mappings or from previous create operations). |
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_LIST_ROUTES` | List Routes | Lists all available InfluxDB v2 API endpoints and routes. This action queries the root API endpoint (GET /api/v2) to retrieve a comprehensive map of all available API resources and their corresponding URLs. Use this to discover what endpoints are available in your InfluxDB Cloud instance, including resources for data management (buckets, write, delete, query), user management (users, orgs, authorizations), monitoring (checks, tasks, dashboards), and configuration (labels, variables, Telegraf). The response includes both simple route strings (e.g., "/api/v2/buckets") and nested route objects (e.g., query routes with analyze, ast, suggestions endpoints). Authentication: Requires a valid authorization token in the metadata headers. |
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_SIGNIN` | Sign In | Authenticates a user with username and password to create a session with InfluxDB Cloud. Returns a session cookie that can be used for subsequent API requests instead of token-based authentication. Use this when you need to authenticate with user credentials rather than API tokens, or when establishing a user session for operations that require session-based authentication. |
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_SIGNOUT` | Sign Out | Tool to expire a user session using a session cookie. Use when ending an authenticated session after signin. |
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_UPDATE_DBRP` | Update DBRP | Tool to update a DBRP mapping's default and retention policy. Use when modifying an existing DBRP mapping after initial creation. |
| `INFLUXDB_CLOUD_WRITE_DATA` | Write Line Protocol Data | Writes time-series data in line protocol format to an InfluxDB Cloud bucket. Use this tool to ingest metrics, sensor data, or any time-series measurements into InfluxDB. The data must be formatted according to InfluxDB line protocol specification. |

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Influxdb cloud MCP?

With a standalone Influxdb cloud MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Influxdb cloud tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Influxdb cloud 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 Influxdb cloud tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Influxdb cloud while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Influxdb cloud 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 Influxdb cloud data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
