salesloft_get_tablesLABSCO SUMMARY
Sales activity you can query instead of scroll.
Cadence and activity data is the kind of thing that gets read one screen at a time in the UI; as tables it becomes something you can aggregate in a sentence — which sequences are landing, who has gone quiet, what happened on an account this month. The read-only surface means an assistant can dig through the data without touching a live cadence. Setup is a Maven build, a licensed driver and a property file.
What it is
A local, read-only bridge between an assistant and Salesloft. CData's JDBC driver exposes Salesloft as relational SQL models; this server wraps the driver so a model can discover the tables and query them, and you can ask in plain language instead of writing SQL. It runs over stdio, so the client has to be on the same machine.
What you get
get_tableslists the tables the driver exposes, returned as CSV with a header rowget_columnslists the columns on one of those tables, in the same CSV shaperun_queryexecutes a SQL SELECT against live Salesloft data- Tool names carry the prefix you set in the property file — the sample config uses
Prefix=salesloft - A
Tablessetting that only picks which tables also get a ready-made description (blank means none); it does not limit what the tools can list or query, so limit the connection or the account it signs in with
Requirements
Java and Maven: mvn clean install builds CDataMCP-jar-with-dependencies.jar. Separately install the CData JDBC Driver for Salesloft and license it by running java -jar cdata.jdbc.salesloft.jar --license, entering TRIAL or a license key. Build the connection string with the same jar, authenticating in the browser if the source uses OAuth, then write a .prp file naming the driver path, the driver class cdata.jdbc.salesloft.SalesloftDriver and that JDBC URL. Point your client at java -jar with the built jar and the .prp file.
Setup effort
Build from source — clone the repository, then point your client at the binary
USE CASES
Finding out what Salesloft objects are available
List the tables the driver publishes, then the columns on the one you need.
Summarising activity across a team
Ask in plain language; the assistant writes the SELECT and reads the CSV back.
Checking how a cadence is performing
Query the underlying records directly rather than clicking through reports.
3 tools
Listed in project docs. Your client may show a different list.
salesloft_get_columnssalesloft_run_queryBEFORE YOU INSTALL
What to know first
Tools you get
3 tools named in the project's documentation. Tool names take the Prefix value from your .prp file, so with Prefix=salesloft they are salesloft_get_tables, salesloft_get_columns and salesloft_run_query. All three only read; write access is CData's separate paid MCP Server.
Where it runs
Both documented setups run the server on your machine.
INSTALLATION
Connect your client
Clone the repository, then point your client at the binary. This one is built from source rather than installed with a single command.
Server setup
git clone https://github.com/cdatasoftware/salesloft-mcp-server-by-cdata.git
cd salesloft-mcp-server-by-cdata
mvn clean installDownload and install the CData JDBC Driver for Salesloft from https://www.cdata.com/drivers/salesloft/download/jdbc
License the driver: from the driver install's lib folder run java -jar cdata.jdbc.salesloft.jar --license, then enter your name, email, and "TRIAL" (or your license key)
Build the connection string: run java -jar cdata.jdbc.salesloft.jar to open the Connection String utility, click "Test Connection" (browser OAuth if the source needs it), and copy the connection string
Create salesloft.prp with:
Prefix=salesloft
ServerName=CDataSalesloft
ServerVersion=1.0
DriverPath=<YOUR_DRIVER_PATH>
DriverClass=cdata.jdbc.salesloft.SalesloftDriver
JdbcUrl=<YOUR_JDBC_URL>
Tables=Tables only picks which tables also get a ready-made description for your assistant, and empty means none; the server can still list and query every table your connection string reaches, so to keep data out of reach, limit that connection or the account it signs in with.
Add the mcpServers entry below to claude_desktop_config.json and fully restart the client
