Write marketing code and update Cordial subscriber records directly inside Cursor using real-time API tools.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Cordial MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Cordial 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.
Build subscriber sync scripts in Cursor
The `upsert_subscriber` tool lets Cursor modify subscriber profiles and channel preferences while you write your integration code. You can test your profile-update logic using real API payloads directly in the editor chat. By calling `get_subscriber_profile` within Cursor, you can instantly see the exact JSON structure of a contact's custom attributes. This saves you from having to guess the schema when writing data-mapping scripts.
Query Cordial campaign data with this MCP Server
The `list_marketing_campaigns` tool lets Cursor pull real campaign performance metrics and schedules into your coding workspace. You can use this live data to write and test custom reporting scripts without hardcoding dummy values. If you need to find a specific ID, Cursor runs `search_campaigns_by_name` to locate the target campaign. This keeps your development flow fast because you never have to leave the editor to search the marketing platform.
Inspect audience segments during local development
The `list_audience_segments` tool gives Cursor direct access to your contact lists and subscriber counts. You can write audience-targeting code while viewing the exact segment names that exist in your production account. Cursor uses `list_contacts` to retrieve raw contact metadata and opt-in histories. This MCP capability keeps your development flow fast by bringing live compliance data directly into your coding environment.
