Overview

What is SurveyMonkey MCP Server by CData?

SurveyMonkey MCP Server by CData is a read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server built by CData. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for SurveyMonkey, exposing SurveyMonkey data as relational SQL models so that LLMs like Claude Desktop can query live survey data through natural language questions—no SQL required.

How to use SurveyMonkey MCP Server by CData?

Clone the repository, build with Maven (mvn clean install), install and license the CData JDBC Driver for SurveyMonkey, configure a connection string using the driver’s utility, and create a .prp file with connection details. Then add the server to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json) using a stdio command with the JAR and .prp file. Run or restart Claude to activate the server.

FAQ from SurveyMonkey MCP Server by CData

Is this server read‑only or does it support writes?

This server is read-only. For full read, write, update, delete, and action capabilities, CData offers a free beta MCP Server for SurveyMonkey with simplified setup.

What are the runtime requirements?

You need Java (to run the JAR), Apache Maven to build the server, and the CData JDBC Driver for SurveyMonkey (must be installed and licensed separately). The server runs on Windows, macOS, or Linux.

How is data accessed and where does it live?

Data is accessed live from SurveyMonkey via the JDBC Driver. The server does not cache data; every query goes directly to SurveyMonkey over the internet. OAuth authentication is handled during connection setup.

What transport does the server use?

The server uses stdio transport, meaning the MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) must run on the same machine as the server.

What are the limitations?

Only SQL SELECT queries are supported via the run_query tool. The server is intended for read operations only. It depends on a valid JDBC driver license and a working internet connection to SurveyMonkey.
