Frequently asked questions

What does SAP ByDesign MCP Server by CData do?

It lets AI clients like Claude Desktop read live SAP ByDesign data by asking questions in natural language, using the CData JDBC Driver to convert the data into SQL tables.

Is the server read-only?

Yes, this version is read-only. For full read, write, update, delete, and action capabilities, CData offers a separate free beta MCP Server for SAP ByDesign.

What are the dependencies?

You need Java, Maven, and the CData JDBC Driver for SAP ByDesign (which must be installed and licensed). The server runs on Windows, Mac, or Linux.

How do I configure the connection?

Create a `.prp` file with the JDBC driver path, driver class (`cdata.jdbc.sapbydesign.SAPByDesignDriver`), and the JDBC URL (obtained via the driver’s connection string utility). The file also requires a prefix and server name.

Why can't I see the server in Claude Desktop?

Fully quit Claude Desktop (use Task Manager on Windows, Activity Monitor on Mac) and reopen it. Also ensure the `claude_desktop_config.json` file is correctly placed and the JAR path is correct.
