Cursor MCP Server integration

Writing a Python script to automate your ad spend requires knowing the exact JSON shape of the API response. You trigger `get_keyword_report` right in the editor. The agent sees the real data structure instead of guessing. Mock data leads to broken code in production. Feeding live metrics directly into your workspace means your data pipelines work on the first run.

Build campaign dashboards

Front-end developers spend too much time reading API docs. You can use `list_campaigns` and `get_campaign` to fetch active structures while writing your React components. The AI client maps over real ad group data via `list_ad_groups`. You stop wondering if a field is a string or an integer. The agent reads the live response and types your TypeScript interfaces perfectly the first time.

Validate auth logic immediately

Debugging a 401 Unauthorized error is miserable. Running `get_account_check` and `get_me` proves your API token works before you write a single line of fetch logic. You isolate the problem to your code, not your credentials. This MCP setup keeps you in the flow state. You don't have to switch to Postman or terminal curl commands to test an endpoint.

Setup guide

Set up Apple Search Ads MCP in Cursor

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the Apple Search Ads MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
4

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent Apple Search Ads transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Apple Search Ads tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apple-search-ads-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Common questions about Apple Search Ads MCP in Cursor

Create a file named mcp.json in your project root. Add the Vinkius server URL under the mcpServers key, and enable Agent mode.

Yes. The agent can pull a schema from your database and map the API response from tools like `get_campaign_report` directly into an insert statement.

Usually, yes. Reload the window to ensure the agent picks up the new tools and registers the connection properly.

Because you are writing code. Pulling live API data straight into your IDE prevents context switching and eliminates manual copy-pasting.

No. The connection relies on a single Vinkius endpoint token. Your search term reports and organizational IDs route through an ephemeral container that disappears immediately.
