Google AdWords by CData FAQs

Question 1

How do I connect Claude Desktop to the MCP Server?

Accepted Answer

You need to create or modify the Claude Desktop config file (claude_desktop_config.json) to include the new MCP server with the correct paths to the java executable, the CDataMCP jar, and the .prp configuration file.

Question 2

What does the Google AdWords MCP Server by CData do?

Accepted Answer

It allows Claude Desktop and other LLMs to connect to live Google AdWords data for analysis and querying using natural language. It exposes AdWords data as relational SQL models through a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.

Question 3

What kind of queries can I run once connected?

Accepted Answer

You can ask the client (like Claude Desktop) questions about your Google Ads data using natural language, such as "What is the average cost per click for my campaigns this month?" The server translates these questions into SQL queries against your AdWords data.

Question 4

Is this a read-only server?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this specific project is a read-only MCP server. For full read, write, update, and delete capabilities, consider the free CData MCP Server for Google AdWords (beta).

Question 5

What is needed to use this server?

Accepted Answer

You'll need the CData JDBC Driver for Google AdWords, the server itself (built from the provided code), and a configured .prp file containing your connection details.
