Configure Cursor (Developer Mode)

Cursor is an AI-driven code editor that supports MCP.

Setup Steps

Select Cursor | Settings | Cursor Settings | Tools & MCP.
Click New MCP Server. This creates a file called mcp.json.

Replace the contents of the mcp.json file with this code:

1{
2  "mcpServers": {
3    "Salesforce": {
4      "url": "https://api.salesforce.com/platform/mcp/v1/<SERVER-NAME>",
5      "auth": {
6        "CLIENT_ID": "CONSUMER-KEY"
7      }
8    }
9  }
10}

Server URL format:

For All production orgs: https://api.salesforce.com/platform/mcp/v1/<SERVER-NAME>
For sandbox or scratch orgs: https://api.salesforce.com/platform/mcp/v1/sandbox/<SERVER-NAME>

Example: To use the platform/sobject-all server in a scratch org:

1https://api.salesforce.com/platform/mcp/v1/sandbox/platform/sobject-all

Replace placeholder values in the mcp.json file:
- Replace <SERVER-NAME> with a server name from the list of available servers (e.g., platform/sobject-all)
- Replace CONSUMER-KEY with the consumer key that you saved from the external client app

Example Configuration

This example mcp.json file is configured to connect Cursor to the platform/sobject-all server in a scratch org:

1{
2  "mcpServers": {
3    "Salesforce": {
4      "url": "https://api.salesforce.com/platform/mcp/v1/sandbox/platform/sobject-all",
5      "auth": {
6        "CLIENT_ID": "123my456consumer7890key"
7      }
8    }
9  }
10}

Testing the Connection

You can now test the client’s connection to the MCP server using Cursor’s sidebar. The sidebar uses a natural language chatbot-style interface. See Test Your MCP Client for example prompts to verify your connection.
