# Lovable

> Lovable is an AI platform that allows you to create apps and websites. You can build applications in Lovable based on your Connect AI data.

## Prerequisites

Before you can configure and use Lovable with Connect AI, you must first do the following:

* Ensure you are on a Business or Enterprise plan with Lovable.

* Connect a data source to your Connect AI account. See [Sources](/en/Sources) for more information.

## Connect Lovable to the Connect AI MCP

<Steps>
  <Step>
    In Lovable, navigate to **Settings** > **Connectors** > **Personal Connectors**.

  </Step>

  <Step>
    Enter the following setup details:

    * **Server Name**–enter your user-defined server name, such as *Custom MCP server*.
    * **Server URL**–enter *[https://mcp.cloud.cdata.com/mcp](https://mcp.cloud.cdata.com/mcp)*.
    * **Authentication**–select **OAuth**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Authenticate using your CData Connect AI account email (such as [user@cdata.com](mailto:user@cdata.com)) and password. Once authentication is successful, your available CData connectors appear in the connectors list.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click **Manage Permissions** to set permissions for the tools exposed by the MCP server.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step>
    You can now run a test prompt to make sure Lovable is successfully communicating with the CData MCP Server. For example, enter the prompt ***List all MCP tools.*** The output returns a list of tools, such as `getCatalogs`, `queryData`, and others.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    You can now query your connected data source(s) in Connect AI using natural language prompts, such as ***Get all data from the Dnd table from the Slack connection*** or ***Get the top 10 records from the Automations table from the MailChimp connection***.
