SQL Server Access FAQs

Question 1

What kind of database exploration and querying features are available?

Accepted Answer

Developers can list available databases, view tables within a database, describe table structures (columns, types, keys), explore sample data, query specific columns, and execute custom SELECT statements, all designed for secure and efficient data interaction.

Question 2

How does SQL Server Access ensure the security of my database and credentials?

Accepted Answer

Security is paramount: it uses individual SQL Server credentials per developer, transmits them securely via HTTP headers (never storing them on the server), ensures full traceability of all operations through SQL Server logs, and strictly blocks unauthorized DDL/DML operations, permitting only secure SELECT queries.

Question 3

What is SQL Server Access and how does it benefit developers?

Accepted Answer

SQL Server Access enables secure, traceable interaction with SQL Server databases directly from your IDE. It allows development teams to query and explore data using natural language commands, streamlining workflows while maintaining high security standards.

Question 4

Can I perform all types of SQL operations like INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE?

Accepted Answer

No, for enhanced security and data integrity, SQL Server Access explicitly blocks DDL (CREATE, ALTER, DROP) and DML (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) operations. Its design focuses on providing secure querying and data exploration capabilities through SELECT commands only.

Question 5

Which IDEs does SQL Server Access integrate with, and how is it set up?

Accepted Answer

It integrates seamlessly with IDEs like Cursor. Setup involves configuring a local JSON file (e.g., `mcp.json`) with your individual SQL Server credentials and connection details, allowing you to interact with databases via natural language prompts or programmatic calls within your IDE.
