Add the Make MCP server to Cursor

Config last verified Jun 1, 2026

The exact config to run Make in Cursor — paste it in, restart, and the tools load.

Prerequisites

Cursor installed.
MAKE_MCP_TOKEN — Make MCP token generated in your Make profile with the mcp:use scope. Sent as a Bearer Authorization header, or embedded in a zone-specific URL like https://<zone>.make.com/mcp/api/v1/u/<MCP_TOKEN>/sse. Required.

Setup

1. Open `~/.cursor/mcp.json`

2. Add this configuration

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json

~/.cursor/mcp.json

json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "make": {
      "url": "https://mcp.make.com/mcp/api/v1/sse"
    }
  }
}

3. Restart Cursor and confirm the Make tools load.

Gotchas

Cursor keeps MCP servers under an "mcpServers" object in ~/.cursor/mcp.json for global use, and also reads a project-scoped .cursor/mcp.json so a repository can ship its own servers. Remote servers are configured with a bare "url" field and connect natively, with OAuth handled in-app when a server requires it.
