How do I install the sheetsdata mcp server?

Use a recorded configuration for your client, replace example credential values and paths, and verify the documented runtime. Restart or reconnect the client, then inspect the available tools.

What credentials does it need?

The recorded environment keys are `SHEETSDATA_API_KEY`. Keep credentials outside committed files and confirm the configuration required by your installed version.

What is the Sheetsdata MCP Server?

MCP server for electronic component datasheets — specs, pinouts, package data on demand. OAuth 2.0 supported (API key fallback). No PDFs required.

The short version

SheetsData is an MCP server that gives AI agents instant, structured access to electronic component data. One tool call returns the pinout. Another returns electrical specs. No PDFs. No uploads. No context window stuffing.

Recorded tools

Check the linked publisher documentation and your connected client's tool list. Names and availability can vary with the server version and account permissions.

Tool	What it does
search_parts	Search for components by part number or keyword. Results merged by MPN with pricing and stock.
search_datasheets	Semantic search across all extracted datasheets. Natural language queries like "low-noise LDO with PSRR above 70dB".
prefetch_datasheets	Batch warm-up extraction for up to 20 parts. Fire-and-forget — reduces wait times.
check_extraction_status	Poll extraction progress after prefetch or read_datasheet.
get_part_details	Full component details — specs, parameters, pricing, and stock.
read_datasheet	Structured datasheet sections (summary, pinout, electrical, abs_max, package) or semantic search within a datasheet.
compare_parts	Compare 2–5 parts side by side on real datasheet specs.
check_design_fit	Validate operating conditions against datasheet limits. PASS/FAIL/WARNING per parameter.
find_alternative	Find alternative/substitute components by specs, package, or availability.
analyze_image	Vision AI analysis of datasheet images — graphs, package drawings, pin diagrams.
request_datasheet_upload	Request a signed URL to upload a datasheet PDF when we don't have one (datasheet_status = no_source or unsupported). Free — fee is only charged on confirm.
confirm_datasheet_upload	Confirm an upload: verifies SHA-256, validates PDF, checks MPN on first page, charges the upload fee, and queues extraction. Datasheets are private to your org.
