CData's Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server for Adobe Analytics

:heavy_exclamation_mark: This project builds a local, read-only MCP server. For fully remote MCP access, check out the first managed MCP platform: CData Connect AI. For locally hosted, full read, write, update, delete, and action capabilities and a simplified setup, check out our CData MCP Server for Adobe Analytics.

Purpose

We created this read-only MCP Server to allow LLMs (like Claude Desktop) to query live data Adobe Analytics supported by the CData JDBC Driver for Adobe Analytics.

CData JDBC Driver connects to Adobe Analytics by exposing them as relational SQL models.

This server wraps that driver and makes Adobe Analytics data available through a simple MCP interface, so LLMs can retrieve live information by asking natural language questions — no SQL required.

Setup Guide

1. Clone the repository:

bash
git clone https://github.com/cdatasoftware/adobe-analytics-mcp-server-by-cdata.git
      cd adobe-analytics-mcp-server-by-cdata

2. Build the server:

bash
mvn clean install

This creates the JAR file: CDataMCP-jar-with-dependencies.jar

2. Download and install the CData JDBC Driver for {source}: https://www.cdata.com/drivers/adobeanalytics/download/jdbc

3. License the CData JDBC Driver:

    4. Configure your connection to the data source (Salesforce as an example):

        > Note: If the data sources uses OAuth, you will need to authenticate in your browser.

          5. Create a `.prp` file for your JDBC connection (e.g. `adobe-analytics.prp`) using the following properties and format:

            env
            Prefix=adobeanalytics
                  ServerName=CDataAdobeAnalytics
                  ServerVersion=1.0
                  DriverPath=PATH\TO\cdata.jdbc.adobeanalytics.jar
                  DriverClass=cdata.jdbc.adobeanalytics.AdobeAnalyticsDriver
                  JdbcUrl=jdbc:adobeanalytics:InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;
                  Tables=

            Using the Server with Claude Desktop

            1. Create the config file for Claude Desktop ( claude_desktop_config.json) to add the new MCP server, using the format below. If the file already exists, add the entry to the `mcpServers` in the config file.

            Windows

            json
            {
                    "mcpServers": {
                      "{classname_dash}": {
                        "command": "PATH\\TO\\java.exe",
                        "args": [
                          "-jar",
                          "PATH\\TO\\CDataMCP-jar-with-dependencies.jar",
                          "PATH\\TO\\adobe-analytics.prp"
                        ]
                      },
                      ...
                    }
                  }

            Linux/Mac

            json
            {
                    "mcpServers": {
                      "{classname_dash}": {
                        "command": "/PATH/TO/java",
                        "args": [
                          "-jar",
                          "/PATH/TO/CDataMCP-jar-with-dependencies.jar",
                          "/PATH/TO/adobe-analytics.prp"
                        ]
                      },
                      ...
                    }
                  }

            If needed, copy the config file to the appropriate directory (Claude Desktop as the example).

            Windows

            bash
            cp C:\PATH\TO\claude_desktop_config.json %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

            Linux/Mac

            bash
            cp /PATH/TO/claude_desktop_config.json /Users/{user}/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json'

            2. Run or refresh your client (Claude Desktop).

            > Note: You may need to fully exit or quit your Claude Desktop client and re-open it for the MCP Servers to appear.

            Running the Server

            1. Run the follow the command to run the MCP Server on its own

            bash
            java -jar /PATH/TO/CDataMCP-jar-with-dependencies.jar /PATH/TO/Salesforce.prp
            > **Note:** The server uses `stdio` so can only be used with clients that run on the same machine as the server.
            ## Usage Details
            Once the MCP Server is configured, the AI client will be able to use the built-in tools to read, write, update, and delete the underlying data. In general, you do not need to call the tools explicitly. Simply ask the client to answer questions about the underlying data system. For example:
            * "What is the correlation between my closed won opportunities and the account industry?"
            * "How many open tickets do I have in the SUPPORT project?"
            * "Can you tell me what calendar events I have today?"
            
            The list of tools available and their descriptions follow:
            ### Tools & Descriptions
            In the definitions below, `{servername}` refers to the name of the MCP Server in the config file (e.g. `{classname_dash}` above).
            * `{servername}_get_tables` - Retrieves a list of tables available in the data source. Use the `{servername}_get_columns` tool to list available columns on a table. The output of the tool will be returned in CSV format, with the first line containing column headers.
            * `{servername}_get_columns` - Retrieves a list of columns for a table. Use the `{servername}_get_tables` tool to get a list of available tables. The output of the tool will be returned in CSV format, with the first line containing column headers.
            * `{servername}_run_query` - Execute a SQL SELECT query
            
            ## JSON-RPC Request Examples
            If you are scripting out the requests sent to the MCP Server instead of using an AI Client (e.g. Claude), then you can refer to the JSON payload examples below – following the JSON-RPC 2.0 specification - when calling the available tools. 
            
            #### adobe_analytics_get_tables

            {

            "jsonrpc": "2.0",

            "id": 1,

            "method": "tools/call",

            "params": {

            "name": "adobe_analytics_get_tables",

            "arguments": {}

            }

            }

            code
            #### adobe_analytics_get_columns

            {

            "jsonrpc": "2.0",

            "id": 2,

            "method": "tools/call",

            "params": {

            "name": "adobe_analytics_get_columns",

            "arguments": {

            "table": "Account"

            }

            }

            }

            code
            #### adobe_analytics_run_query

            {

            "jsonrpc": "2.0",

            "id": 3,

            "method": "tools/call",

            "params": {

            "name": "adobe_analytics_run_query",

            "arguments": {

            "sql": "SELECT * FROM [Account] WHERE [IsDeleted] = true"

            }

            }

            }

            code
            ## Troubleshooting
            1. If you cannot see your CData MCP Server in Claude Desktop, be sure that you have fully quit Claude Desktop (Windows: use the Task Manager, Mac: use the Activity Monitor)
            2. If Claude Desktop is unable to retrieve data, be sure that you have configured your connection properly. Use the Connection String builder to create the connection string (see above) and copy the connection string into the property (.prp) file.
            3. If you are having trouble connecting to your data source, contact the [CData Support Team](https://www.cdata.com/support/submit.aspx).
            4. If you are having trouble using the MCP server, or have any other feedback, join the [CData Community](https://community.cdata.com).
