Create a .prp file with connection details (e.g., Prefix, ServerName, DriverPath, DriverClass, JdbcUrl) and configure Claude Desktop’s claude_desktop_config.json to launch the server with java -jar CDataMCP-jar-with-dependencies.jar and the .prp file. The server runs via stdio.

FAQ from Sugar CRM MCP Server by CData

Is this server read‑only?

Yes, this project builds a read‑only MCP server. For full read, write, update, delete, and action capabilities, CData offers a free beta MCP Server.

What are the system requirements?

You need Java (to run the JAR), Maven (to build), and the CData JDBC Driver for Sugar CRM installed and licensed. The server runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Where does the Sugar CRM data live?

Data is accessed live through the CData JDBC Driver. The server does not store or cache data; all queries execute against the Sugar CRM instance.

Which transport protocol does the server use?

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

Do I need to handle OAuth manually?

Many data sources (including Sugar CRM) use OAuth. When testing the connection with the Connection String utility, you will authenticate in your browser. The driver can then refresh tokens automatically (InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH).
