​
Prerequisites

  • Windsurf editor installed
  • A VexiData account with at least one connected database

​
Connect VexiData to Windsurf

1

Copy your MCP Server URL

Your MCP Server URL is:
https://vexidata.com/mcp
You can also find this in Settings > AI Integrations in your VexiData AI Integrations page.
2

Add VexiData as an MCP server in Windsurf

  1. Open Windsurf
  2. Go to Settings > Cascade > MCP
  3. Click Add Server
  4. Enter a name (e.g., “VexiData”)
  5. Paste your MCP Server URL
  6. Click Save
3

Authorize the connection

Windsurf will open a browser window to VexiData for authorization. Review the requested permissions and click Approve.Once authorized, you’ll see VexiData listed as a connected MCP server in Windsurf’s settings.
4

Start querying your data

In Windsurf’s Cascade chat, you can now reference your database. For example:
  • “What does the schema look like for the products table?”
  • “Write a query to find duplicate email addresses”
  • “Generate an API endpoint that returns orders by status”
Cascade will use VexiData to access your schema and run queries against your connected databases.

​
Manual configuration

You can also add VexiData directly to your Windsurf MCP configuration file (~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json): 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vexidata": {
      "serverUrl": "https://vexidata.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Restart Windsurf after saving the file.

​
Troubleshooting

  • Check that your VexiData account has an active session — try logging in at vexidata.com
  • Verify the MCP Server URL is correct in Windsurf settings
  • Try removing and re-adding the MCP server
  • Make sure your default browser is set and working
  • Try adding VexiData manually via the config file method
  • Check that no browser extensions are blocking the redirect
  • Verify you have at least one database connected in VexiData under Data Sources
  • Check that your database connection is active and the schema has been analyzed
  • Try asking specifically about a table name to confirm the connection is working
