FAQ from MongoDB MCP Server by CData

What dependencies are required to run this server?

You need Java, Maven (to build), and the CData JDBC Driver for MongoDB installed and licensed on your machine.

Does this server support write, update, or delete operations?

No. This MCP server is read-only. For full CRUD and local hosting, see the separate CData MCP Server for MongoDB.

Where does data live when I use this server?

All data remains local. The server runs on your machine and queries MongoDB directly via the JDBC driver.

What transport does the server use?

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

How do I authenticate to MongoDB?

Use the CData JDBC Driver’s Connection String utility to configure authentication (e.g., OAuth) and copy the resulting JDBC URL into your .prp file.
