Frequently asked questions

Is this server read-only?

Yes, this build provides a read-only MCP server. For full read, write, update, delete, and action capabilities, refer to CData’s managed MCP platform or the CData MCP Server for Microsoft Dataverse.

What dependencies are required?

You need the Java Runtime Environment, the CData JDBC Driver for Microsoft Dataverse (with a valid license or trial key), and Maven to build the JAR.

How does data access work?

The server uses the CData JDBC Driver to connect to Microsoft Dataverse via OAuth. The connection string is configured in a `.prp` file. The server runs locally and uses stdio transport, so it only works with clients on the same machine.

What transport protocol does the server use?

The server uses `stdio` transport. It cannot be accessed remotely.

How do I authenticate to Microsoft Dataverse?

Authentication is handled by the CData JDBC Driver. When generating the connection string, OAuth will prompt you to authenticate in your browser. The connection string (e.g., `jdbc:cds:InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;`) is stored in the `.prp` file.
