Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Amplitude to Claude Code?

You need two things: (1) connect Amplitude to Sequel in your Sequel dashboard under Connections, and (2) add the Sequel MCP config to Claude Code using the setup shown above. Once both are done, Claude Code can query your Amplitude data directly.

What Amplitude data can Claude Code access?

Claude Code can access any data available through your Amplitude connection in Sequel. Use Sequel's search tool to discover available metrics and dimensions, then execute queries to pull the data you need.

Is my Amplitude data sent to Claude Code's servers?

Query results are returned to Claude Code as context within your conversation. Only the data you explicitly ask about is retrieved. Sequel never stores your query results permanently — they exist only for the duration of the tool call.

Do I need a Sequel account?

Yes. You need a Sequel account to connect Amplitude and generate an API key. Sign up free at sequel.sh — no credit card required. Then create a connection to Amplitude and generate an API key from Settings → API Keys.

Can I connect multiple Amplitude accounts?

Yes. Sequel supports multiple connections of the same type. If you have multiple Amplitude accounts or properties, add each as a separate connection in Sequel. Claude Code will be able to query all of them.
