Overview

What is Zoho Inventory MCP Server by CData?

The Zoho Inventory MCP Server by CData is a read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that allows large language models (LLMs) like Claude Desktop to query live Zoho Inventory data using natural language. It leverages the CData JDBC Driver for Zoho Inventory to expose Zoho Inventory as relational SQL models, making data accessible without writing SQL.

How to use Zoho Inventory MCP Server by CData?

  1. Clone the repository and build the JAR with mvn clean install.
  2. Download, install, and license the CData JDBC Driver for Zoho Inventory.
  3. Configure a connection string using the driver’s connection utility, then create a .prp properties file with driver path, JDBC URL, and other settings.
  4. Add the server to your client’s MCP config (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json) referencing the Java executable, the JAR, and the .prp file.
  5. Restart the client; the server exposes tools for listing tables, columns, and running SQL queries.

Frequently asked questions

1

Is this server read-only?

Yes. The README explicitly states this project builds a read-only MCP server. For full CRUD capabilities, CData offers a separate beta MCP server.

2

What runtime does the server require?

Java (to run the JAR) and the CData JDBC Driver for Zoho Inventory (install and license separately).

3

How do I connect to my Zoho Inventory data?

Use the driver’s connection string utility to generate a JDBC URL (OAuth-based), then save it in a `.prp` file with driver path and other properties.

4

What transports does the server support?

The server uses `stdio` and can only be used with clients running on the same machine.

5

Where can I get help?

Contact CData Support via their website or join the CData Community for feedback and troubleshooting.
