Connect Cursor

Use these steps with Cursor IDE.

Open Tools and MCP

In Cursor, open Cursor Settings, then choose Tools & MCP and select Add Custom MCP.

Add Superdata

Cursor opens an mcp.json file. Add Superdata as a Streamable HTTP server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "superdata": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://api.superdata.so/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Use ~/.cursor/mcp.json for a global connection, or .cursor/mcp.json for a project-specific connection.

Connect your account

Save the file, return to Tools & MCP, connect Superdata, and complete browser sign-in with your Superdata account.

Use Superdata

Open a fresh Cursor chat and ask Cursor to retrieve a known LinkedIn profile or company URL with Superdata.

API-key configuration

If your Cursor environment cannot complete browser sign-in, create an API key from Connections and add an authorization header:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "superdata": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://api.superdata.so/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sd_live_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Keep API keys in your personal global Cursor config or secure credential storage. Do not commit a project .cursor/mcp.json that contains a bearer token.
