BigDataCloud for AI agents

BigDataCloud offers geolocation, reverse geocoding, and data validation APIs, used by developers to look up IP addresses, verify emails and phone numbers, and check network data. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

03 · HOW IT WORKS

BigDataCloud in three steps.

  1. 01Your users connect BigDataCloudThey add their BigDataCloud api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, and writes like “user Risk API” can wait for the user to approve.
  3. 03Any agent can actYour agent calls BigDataCloud through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
POLICY.TS
await arc0.policies.set('bigdatacloud', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // user_risk_api
  destructive: 'deny',  
})

# Claude Code: the same connection, one URL

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How BigDataCloud connects.

Users add their BigDataCloud api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same BigDataCloud connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

BigDataCloud and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use BigDataCloud with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect BigDataCloud to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the BigDataCloud actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect BigDataCloud?

Users add their BigDataCloud api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which BigDataCloud actions can my agent take?

17 in total: 0 read, 17 write and 0 destructive, such as “user Risk API”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I make my agent read-only in BigDataCloud?

Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the BigDataCloud policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.

Q05

Can my own backend call BigDataCloud too?

Yes. The same BigDataCloud connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
