Talk to Power BI from Claude using MCP (even on a Mac!)

Timestamps 00:00 Intro 00:55 Copilot demo (chat with data) 05:45 MCP explained (brief, non-technical) 10:00 Claude demo (custom local MCP server) 14:00 Wrap-up It's possible to set up custom MCP servers to interact with your Power BI data. I found this interesting because Claude (Sonnet 4.0) had more "outside-the-box" thinking and could better leverage context. It's important to note that I don't think MCP servers and LLMs at large pose a threat to existing tools or reports/dashboards in general. I see this as an experience that can compliment existing tools and technologies. I believe that AI should augment human ability and respect human autonomy; that is how we will make great things. #PowerBI #MicrosoftFabric #Copilot #Claude #AI #MCP Note: I had to re-upload this video after making a mistake.
