Overview

What is Kintone MCP Server by CData?

This is a read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables large language models (LLMs) like Claude Desktop to query live data from Kintone. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for Kintone, exposing Kintone data as relational SQL models accessed through natural language.

How to use Kintone MCP Server by CData?

Clone the repository, build with Maven (mvn clean install), download and license the CData JDBC Driver for Kintone, create a .prp file with your connection details, and configure the Claude Desktop client to point to the server JAR and .prp file. Once configured, ask the LLM questions like “How many open tickets do I have in the SUPPORT project?”.

You need Java, Maven (for building), and the CData JDBC Driver for Kintone (installed and licensed). The server runs as a standalone JAR.

Where does the Kintone data live?

Data resides in your Kintone instance (cloud or on-premise). The JDBC Driver connects to it directly; no local copy is created.

How is data transmitted?

The MCP server uses stdio transport, so it communicates with the MCP client over standard input/output on the same machine. No network listener is exposed.
