Can I use Microsoft Power BI as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Microsoft Power BI CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Microsoft Power BI through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Microsoft Power BI tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Microsoft Power BI credentials stored?

Microsoft Power BI credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Microsoft Power BI MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Microsoft Power BI CLI for Headless Automation

Use KosmoKrator as a non-interactive integration runtime for local automations and wrappers.

Use headless automation when another tool needs a stable local command surface. The Microsoft Power BI CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Microsoft Power BI CLI for Headless Automation
kosmokrator integrations:configure powerbi --set access_token="$POWERBI_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call powerbi.powerbi_list_workspaces '{"top":1}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Microsoft Power BI docs and schemas before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs powerbi --json
kosmo integrations:docs powerbi.powerbi_list_workspaces --json
kosmo integrations:schema powerbi.powerbi_list_workspaces --json
kosmo integrations:search "Microsoft Power BI" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.
Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
