How to Set Up AI for Your Tables

Connect Claude (or another MCP-compatible AI) to Data Tables Generator and start managing your tables in plain English. One-time setup, takes about a minute.

Before you start

How you use AI depends on how you use your Data Tables.

Native AI connection Read & Analyse

If your tables don’t change often

Create your tables manually. Use your AI tool to read and analyse (no Add-On required).

  • Ask questions about your tables
  • View and analyse data
  • Works with Free or Pro plugin tiers
With AI Add-On Create, Edit & Manage

If your tables change frequently

Use the AI Add-On to do the work for you (works with Free or Pro).

  • Create new tables from a description
  • Edit and delete existing tables
  • Update data, formatting, and structure
  • Import and export data
A note on AI plans. To use AI reliably, we recommend a paid AI plan such as Claude Pro or Cursor IDE. Free AI plans may connect, but they are not reliable for editing tasks — they can stop mid-process due to usage limits.

1Install the plugin

  1. Install and activate Data Tables Generator (Free or Pro)
  2. Install and activate AI Add-On (for maximum capability)

2Create a WordPress Application Password

This allows the AI to securely connect to your site. Application Passwords are a built-in WordPress feature — no plugin required.

  1. Go to Users → Profile
  2. Scroll to Application Passwords
  3. Enter a name (e.g. AI Access)
  4. Click Add New
  5. Copy the password — you’ll use it in Step 3
Save it now. WordPress shows the Application Password only once. If you lose it, you’ll need to generate a new one.

3Connect your AI tool

We recommend Claude for the smoothest experience. Two paths:

Option A — Simple Setup (recommended for most users)

No coding required.

  1. Open your AI tool
  2. Add a new connection. In Claude: Settings → Connectors → Add Custom Connector
  3. Enter the connector details:
    Name: Data Table MCP Server
    Remote MCP server URL: https://tools.supsystic.com/mcp
  4. Open Advanced Settings and enter (the literal value Claude in both fields):
    OAuth Client ID: Claude
    OAuth Client Secret: Claude
  5. Click Add
  6. Click Connect and provide:
    • Your WordPress site URL
    • Your Application Password (from Step 2)
  7. Click Connect to finish.

Go to Test the connection below.

Option B — Advanced Setup (developers)

For Cursor IDE or manual setups.

You’ll need Node.js installed and your Application Password.

  1. Install the MCP bridge:
    npm install -g mcp-remote
  2. Connect to: https://tools.supsystic.com/mcp
  3. Authenticate using your WordPress URL and Application Password.

Go to Test the connection below.

Test the connection

Quick sanity check:

“List all my tables”

If that works, AI is connected. Try these next — paste each prompt separately and wait for the result before sending the next:

1. “Summarise [table name] — what’s most interesting?”

2. “Find patterns or anomalies in [table name]”

3. “What’s the highest value in [column name]? What does it tell you?”

That’s the magic — AI reading and analysing your data on command. No SQL, no formulas, no exports.

Got the AI Add-On? Now try writing — paste each prompt separately and wait for the result before sending the next:

1. “Create a sample ‘Inventory’ table with columns for Product, Quantity, and Price, plus 10 example rows”

2. “Add a ‘Total Value’ column to Inventory (Quantity × Price), then highlight any row over $100 in red”

3. “Delete the Inventory table”

What used to take you hours, now takes a sentence.

Troubleshooting

If it’s not working, check:

  • Application Password entered correctly
  • Correct MCP URLhttps://tools.supsystic.com/mcp
  • Using a paid AI plan
  • Plugin installed and active
