FinOps Workbench

A free desktop app for Windows and macOS to manage your Power Platform and Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations environments — and drive them from Claude.

Free tool · Windows & macOS

The environment cockpit for Dynamics 365 F&O and Power Platform

FinOps Workbench brings every environment in your tenant into a single window — Dataverse, Unified Developer Environments (UDE) and LCS-managed F&O. Inspect them, request just-in-time SQL access, run queries in a built-in workspace, download Lifecycle Services assets, and hand the whole thing to an AI assistant through its Model Context Protocol server. No SQL client, no ODBC driver, no PowerShell — one native app for Windows and macOS.

What it does

Every environment, one grid

List every Dataverse, UDE and LCS-managed F&O environment in your tenant — with live state, SKU, capacity, URLs and versions. Provision, copy, delete, sync and view lifecycle history.

Just-in-time SQL access

Request a time-boxed Reader or Read-write SQL grant for an F&O or UDE database in a couple of clicks, scoped to your current IP — with a ready-to-use connection string. Dataverse orgs need no grant at all.

Built-in SQL Workspace

An SSMS-style workspace — object tree, query editor and results grid — for F&O and Dataverse databases. No SQL client or ODBC driver to install; a TDS client is built in.

Use it from Claude (MCP)

A built-in Model Context Protocol server lets Claude Desktop or Claude Code use your signed-in session as tools — list environments, read F&O details and run SQL in plain language. Read-only by default.

Lifecycle Services assets

Download and track VHDs, deployable and data packages, database backups (bacpacs) and developer tools, with per-item progress and a download library that remembers what you have.

Your identity, your machine

Sign in once with your Microsoft Entra ID account (MFA supported) — no tenant id, client id or secret to configure. Tokens are stored encrypted on your machine, and the MCP endpoint stays localhost-only.

Requirements

  • Windows 10 or 11 (x64, ARM64 or 32-bit), or macOS (Apple Silicon or Intel).
  • A Microsoft Entra ID (work/school) account with administrator rights on the environments you want to manage.
  • Internet access to Microsoft sign-in and the Power Platform / Lifecycle Services APIs.
  • No SQL client or ODBC driver needed — the SQL workspace uses a built-in TDS client.

Quick start

  1. 1
    Install

    Download the build for your OS and run it. Windows installs per-user (no admin rights); on macOS, open the .dmg and drag the app to Applications.

  2. 2
    Sign in

    Sign in with your Microsoft Entra ID account (MFA supported). Your environments load automatically and your session is remembered.

  3. 3
    Request SQL access

    Select an F&O/UDE environment, request a just-in-time grant, then open the SQL Workspace.

  4. 4
    Connect to Claude

    Open the MCP Server page, click Start, then add it to Claude Code or Claude Desktop.

Built for the AI-assisted era

Turn on the MCP server and ask Claude things like “list my environments and tell me which are UDEs” or “run this SQL on Contoso Dev”. Read operations are on by default; write operations stay opt-in, so the assistant only changes things when you let it.
