Numbers for the board
The founder asks how many orders shipped last month and their total value. Memtro reads the schema, runs one limited query over the orders table under the Memtro role, and returns 1,284 orders worth £96,400.
Hasura + Memtro
Ask Hasura questions about your own tables, answered with a GraphQL query.
Connect Hasura v2 with your host name and admin secret and Memtro reads the schema and runs GraphQL queries over your own tables. Hasura is self-hostable, and Memtro talks to your server or your Hasura Cloud v2 project. The admin secret cannot be scoped, so set a role and every request runs under that role's rules. It reads on demand and there is no hourly sync. When you ask, and once an administrator has granted them by name, it can run insert, update and delete mutations, which change or permanently delete rows and cannot be undone from Memtro.
In Memtro
What you can do with Hasura in Memtro
Ask in plain English from chat, your editor, a scheduled job or your own agent. The model picks the right Hasura tool, reads what it needs, and answers with the source cited.
What it does
- 01The query and mutation root fields the connection's role is offered, with their arguments
- 02One GraphQL query at a time with filters, ordering and a limit; mutations are refused
- 03Requests run under the role you set, sent as X-Hasura-Role, not as admin
- 04When asked and granted, runs an insert mutation, overwriting existing rows only as an upsert when asked
- 05When asked and granted, runs update mutations that replace column values; every row only when stated
- 06When asked and granted, runs delete mutations that permanently delete rows and any cascades
Acts when asked
When you ask it to
These tools change something in Hasura. The model is told to use them only when you ask for exactly that, and an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it; a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.
- 01Run an insert mutation in Hasura (an upsert only when asked)
- 02Run an update mutation in Hasura
- 03Run a delete mutation in Hasura
Events
When it happens
Turn events on in the connection's Events tab on the Connections page, then add the address it shows as a webhook in Hasura, choosing the same kinds; the tab shows Hasura's own steps. Each event can start a job, with the event as its input. Hasura sends a secret with every delivery, and one without it is refused.
Events and webhooks- 01A row was inserted
- 02A row was updated
- 03A row was deleted
- 04A trigger was invoked by hand on a row
In practice
Ask it like you would a colleague
Once Hasura is connected, these are the kinds of things people ask. Plain questions, no syntax. If the answer lives partly in another system you have connected, Memtro looks there too.
Hasura + Memtro
How many orders are still open, and what is their total?
Which customers signed up in the last 30 days?
What tables can Memtro query?
Mark order 5521 as cancelled
Which Northwind invoices are more than 60 days overdue?
A careful fix
Support asks Memtro to correct the email on the Brightwave Ltd customer record. Memtro runs one update mutation on that row by its key, and the role's update permissions decide whether it is allowed.

FAQ
Questions
Can Memtro change anything in Hasura?+
Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: run an insert mutation in Hasura (an upsert only when asked); run an update mutation in Hasura; run a delete mutation in Hasura. Every other tool reads, searches or lists. The Connections page labels the tools that act, an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.
Who can use a Hasura connection?+
A personal connection serves only your own requests. A shared connection serves the organisation: everyone, or only the teams an admin chooses. Admins can always add shared connections; other members need the permission.
Does Memtro store my Hasura data?+
Credentials are encrypted at rest. Tool results are cached briefly so agent loops do not repeat identical calls, and the facts the model extracts are saved to your organisation's memory with provenance (system, record and link) so they can be checked and superseded.
How do I connect Hasura?+
Host and admin secret. Needs Hasura v2 (Community, Enterprise or Hasura Cloud v2); Hasura DDN (v3) is not supported.
Can Hasura start a job?+
Yes. Turn events on in the connection's Events tab on the Connections page, then add the address it shows as a webhook in Hasura, choosing the same kinds; the tab shows Hasura's own steps. A job set to start "When an event arrives" then runs once for each matching event, with the event as its input. The run treats the event as outside data, never as instructions, and anything the run remembers is kept as unverified.
