How to Use the Autodesk Construction Cloud MCP in Cursor
Build construction tech faster by letting Cursor pull live Autodesk Construction Cloud data right into your editor.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Autodesk Construction Cloud MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Autodesk Construction Cloud to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Scaffold API Integrations with Live Data
The `list_hubs` and `list_projects` tools feed real organization structures into Cursor while you write code. When you ask Agent mode to build a dropdown menu for project selection, it queries the actual API. The AI writes the component using real IDs and names instead of placeholder text. Getting deeper context requires `get_project_details`. Cursor inspects the live JSON response for a specific build site to understand the exact schema. Your generated types and interfaces match the actual API payload perfectly because the agent saw the real data.
Query Construction Assets Inside Cursor
Firing `list_assets` and `get_asset_details` lets your editor read equipment logs directly from the source. You tell Cursor to write a script that updates HVAC statuses, and it pulls a sample asset to see the available fields. The resulting Python or TypeScript code handles the exact data structure Autodesk expects. Managing documents works the same way via `list_top_folders` and `list_folder_contents`. The agent browses the remote blueprint directories to verify folder paths before it writes your file upload logic. You stop guessing what the folder hierarchy looks like.
Test Autodesk Construction Cloud MCP Server Issues
Your AI client executes `list_issues` and `get_issue_details` to fetch active defect reports while you draft automation scripts. If you need a script that emails overdue safety flags, Cursor grabs a real overdue issue to test the logic. The agent builds the parser around actual API responses. Writing data out happens through `create_issue`. You instruct the agent to build an error-handling function that logs critical system failures as site issues. It tests the function by pushing a real issue to a dev project, proving the code works before you commit it.
