SAP BusinessObjects BI FAQs

Question 1

Is the SAP BusinessObjects BI MCP Server read-only or does it support writes?

Accepted Answer

This specific project builds a read-only MCP server, designed exclusively for querying and retrieving live data. For full read, write, update, and delete capabilities, CData offers a separate, more comprehensive MCP Server solution.

Question 2

What are the key components required to use this server?

Accepted Answer

To utilize this server, you need the SAP BusinessObjects BI MCP Server itself, the CData JDBC Driver for SAP BusinessObjects BI for data connectivity, and an AI client (such as Claude Desktop) configured to interact with the MCP server.

Question 3

What is SAP BusinessObjects BI MCP Server by CData?

Accepted Answer

It's a read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI clients and Large Language Models (LLMs) like Claude Desktop to query live SAP BusinessObjects BI data using natural language interactions.

Question 4

How does this tool facilitate natural language querying of BI data?

Accepted Answer

By wrapping the CData JDBC Driver for SAP BusinessObjects BI, it exposes your BI data through an MCP interface. This allows LLMs to understand and execute natural language requests, eliminating the need for direct SQL knowledge from the user.

Question 5

Can I still run direct SQL queries with this tool?

Accepted Answer

Yes, while primarily designed for natural language querying via LLMs, the server also provides a `run_query` tool that allows for direct SQL SELECT query execution against your live SAP BusinessObjects BI data.
