How do I get an Eventmaker API Key?

Log in to your Eventmaker account, navigate to **Account Settings > API**, and you can generate or retrieve your unique API Key from there. Ensure you have an active plan that supports API access.

Can the agent perform onsite check-ins?

This integration currently focuses on listing and auditing events, participants, and check-in logs. Performing live check-ins or scanning badges should be managed via the Eventmaker mobile app or onsite hardware.

Does the integration show real-time attendance rates?

Yes, you can use the get_event_performance_stats tool to retrieve real-time data on check-in rates and total registrations compared to onsite attendance.

Eventmaker + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Eventmaker MCP Server with Cursor.

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
