Connect to Claude

Once Claude Desktop connects to the Bridger Gateway over SSE, you can use 230+ public-data tools in natural language with no extra installation.

Install Claude Desktop

If you don’t have Claude Desktop yet, download it from the official Anthropic site. Both macOS and Windows are supported.

Open the MCP config file

In the Claude Desktop menu, click Claude → Settings → Developer → Edit Config.Config file location:

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Add the Bridger MCP server

Add the following to the config file.

claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "data-bridge": {
      "url": "https://mcp.datari.kr/mcp/sse",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

You can issue an API key from the admin dashboard after creating an account.

Restart Claude and start using it

After saving the config, fully quit and relaunch Claude Desktop. You can now ask about Korean public data in natural language.

Troubleshooting

I don't see any tools

Fully quit and relaunch Claude Desktop. Verify the JSON in the config file is valid (missing commas or quotes).

I get an authentication error

Confirm the API key was entered correctly, and re-issue it from the admin dashboard if needed.
