Developer Tools & IT

What the ClickHouse connector can do

ClickHouse is a column-oriented database built for fast analytical queries over large volumes of data. Connected to type.com, a data or engineering Space can ask the agent to list databases, inspect a table's schema, or run a SQL query, so analysis happens in a thread the whole team can follow instead of a private terminal.

One connection, many Spaces

Connect ClickHouse once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.

What teams do with ClickHouse in type.com

Explore an unfamiliar database

List the databases and tables in a ClickHouse instance before writing a query, so a new analyst doesn't have to guess at the schema.

Try asking
List all databases in our ClickHouse instance, then show me the schema for the events database.

Answer a question with a live query

Run a SQL query against ClickHouse and get results back in the thread, instead of switching to a separate SQL client.

Try asking
Run a ClickHouse query that counts signups by day for the last 30 days.

Check a table before building a report

Pull a table's column definitions and sample rows so a report is built against the actual structure, not assumptions.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting ClickHouse

Can Claude query ClickHouse directly from type.com?

Yes. Once ClickHouse is connected and shared with a Space, the agent can list databases, check table schemas, and run SQL queries, with results posted right in the thread.

How does type.com authenticate with ClickHouse?

ClickHouse is connected with basic authentication. An admin enters the credentials once when creating the connection, and access from there is controlled by which Spaces it's shared with.

Can ClickHouse reports run on a schedule in type.com?

Yes. A recurring query, such as a daily signups count, can be set up as a type.com automation that posts the result to a channel.

Is this the same as an MCP server for ClickHouse?

Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
