Authorize.Net MCP Server by CData

What is Authorize.Net MCP Server by CData?

A read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets LLMs (like Claude Desktop) query live Authorize.Net data using natural language. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for Authorize.Net, which exposes Authorize.Net as relational SQL models, and makes that data accessible through a simple MCP interface without requiring SQL.

How to use Authorize.Net MCP Server by CData?

Clone the repository, build the JAR with mvn clean install, install and license the CData JDBC Driver for Authorize.Net, and create a .prp file with your JDBC connection string. Then add the server to your Claude Desktop configuration (claude_desktop_config.json) using the Java command that points to the built JAR and .prp file. The server uses stdio transport and must run on the same machine as the client.
