Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Dodo Payments to VS Code?

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

What Dodo Payments data can VS Code access?

VS Code can access any data available through your Dodo Payments 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 Dodo Payments data sent to VS Code's servers?

Query results are returned to VS 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?
