Learn how you can add the indobase MCP servers to Cursor to interact with both the indobase API and documentation.
Before you begin, ensure you have the following pre-requisites installed on your system:
Open the Cursor Settings page, head to the MCP tab, and click on the Add new global MCP server button. This will open an mcp.json file in your editor.
Choose which MCP server you want to configure:
Update the mcp.json file to include the API server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"indobase-api": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"mcp-server-appwrite",
"--users"
],
"env": {
"APPWRITE_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
"APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID": "your-project-id",
"APPWRITE_ENDPOINT": "https://<REGION>.cloud.indobase.io/v1"
}
}
}
}
Configuration:
- Replace
your-project-idwith your actual indobase project ID - Replace
your-api-keywith your indobase API key - Replace
<REGION>with your indobase Cloud region (e.g.,nyc,fra)
Update the mcp.json file to include the docs server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"indobase-docs": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp-for-docs.indobase.io"
]
}
}
}
You can also directly add the MCP servers to Cursor using the following links:
Once you save the details, Cursor will connect with the MCP server(s) and load all available tools. You may need to restart Cursor if it is unable to start the MCP server.
