Uptrace MCP Server: Auto-Generate Dashboards with AI in Minutes
Tired of clicking through menus to build observability dashboards? In this video I walk through how to configure the Uptrace MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and connect it to an AI assistant so your dashboards get created automatically from natural-language prompts.
You'll learn how to:
- Install and configure the Uptrace MCP server
- Connect it to your MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)
- Authenticate against your Uptrace project
- Prompt the assistant to generate dashboards, panels, and queries on the fly
- Iterate on layouts and metrics without touching the UI
By the end you'll have a working setup where describing what you want to monitor is enough to get a real, shareable dashboard in Uptrace.
