Frequently asked questions

1

Is this server read-only or can it also write data?

This server is read-only. For full read, write, update, and delete capabilities, see the free CData MCP Server for ShipStation (beta).

2

What are the dependencies and runtime requirements?

You need Java, Maven, the CData JDBC Driver for ShipStation (installed and licensed), and a client that supports MCP (e.g., Claude Desktop). The server runs on Windows, Mac, or Linux.

3

Where does the data reside?

Data stays in ShipStation. The server queries live data over the network via the JDBC driver.

4

What transport and authentication are used?

The server uses stdio transport, so the client must be on the same machine. Authentication is handled by the JDBC connection string, typically via OAuth that opens a browser for authorization.

5

What tools are available and how do they work?

The server exposes tools prefixed with the configured server name: `{servername}_get_tables`, `{servername}_get_columns`, and `{servername}_run_query` (for SELECT queries). You generally let the LLM call them automatically based on your natural language questions.
