Overview

What is SQL Server Analysis Services MCP Server by CData?

SQL Server Analysis Services MCP Server by CData is a read-only Model Context Protocol server that lets AI assistants like Claude Desktop query live data from SQL Server Analysis Services using natural language. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for SQL Server Analysis Services and exposes the data as relational SQL models.

How to use SQL Server Analysis Services MCP Server by CData?

Clone the repository, build with mvn clean install, install and license the CData JDBC Driver for SQL Server Analysis Services, create a .prp file with your connection details, and configure the server in Claude Desktop’s claude_desktop_config.json. Run the server with java -jar CDataMCP-jar-with-dependencies.jar /path/to/ssas.prp. The server communicates via stdio and must run on the same machine as the client.

Frequently asked questions

1

Is this server read-only or does it support write operations?

This server is read-only. For full read, write, update, and delete capabilities, use the free CData MCP Server for SQL Server Analysis Services (beta) linked in the README.

2

What are the runtime requirements?

You need Java (to run the JAR), the CData JDBC Driver for SQL Server Analysis Services (trial or licensed), and Maven to build the project.

3

Where does the data live and how is it accessed?

Data stays in the original SQL Server Analysis Services instance. The server connects live via the JDBC driver using the connection string you configure in the `.prp` file.

4

What transport does this server use?

It uses `stdio` transport, meaning it can only be used with clients running on the same machine as the server.

5

How do I license the CData JDBC Driver?

Navigate to the driver’s `lib` folder and run `java -jar cdata.jdbc.ssas.jar --license`. Enter your name, email, and “TRIAL” or a purchased license key.
