input_data_path

MCP tool from Openstaad MCP by BentleySystems

Path to a .csv or .xlsx file. The server reads and parses it, then injects as the inputdata variable in the sandbox.

How to use it

Project documentation lists input_data_path for the Openstaad MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
