# Using VS Code with DataDoe MCP

Use VS Code when you want to stay in the editor and still query DataDoe through an MCP-enabled assistant.

![VS Code connector setup steps](/hub-files/mcp/datadoe/vs-code-connector.png)

## Prerequisites

- You have access to DataDoe and a working MCP-capable agent or client.
- You know where that agent stores its MCP server configuration.

## Step 1: Add the DataDoe MCP server

Open the VS Code MCP or agent settings for your extension and add the DataDoe MCP server there.

Add this to `.vscode/mcp.json` or your user `mcp.json`:

```json
{
    "servers": {
        "datadoe": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.datadoe.com/mcp/v1",
            "headers": {
                "datadoe-mcp-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
            }
        }
    }
}

## Step 2: Reload the agent

Restart the agent so it picks up the new MCP server definition.

## Step 3: Test it

Run your first prompt, for example: `Show me all sellers and vendors from DataDoe`.

## Starter Project

If you want a starting point, use our [VS Code template repository](https://github.com/Deltologic/datadoe-mcp-vs-code-co-pilot).
