How to Use the Geoapify MCP in Cursor

Q: Can I find a business's hours with Geoapify in Cursor?

Yes, use the getplacedetails tool. First find the place with searchplaces, get its ID, then pass that ID to getplacedetails to get information like opening hours, contact info, and more.

Q: How do I get elevation data for a list of coordinates using Geoapify and Cursor?

You can ask the Cursor agent to call the getelevation tool for each coordinate. For a large list, it's better to use createbatchjob to process them all in a single, efficient request.

Q: Is my location data secure when using Geoapify through Cursor?

Yes. The server processes data like IP addresses for getipinfo and GPS coordinates. Vinkius uses a zero-trust model, meaning every request is authenticated and isolated. Nothing is logged or stored after your request is completed.

Inject live routing and geocoding data directly into your code with Cursor. Build location-aware apps faster.

Perplexity

Generate code with real location data

Stop writing boilerplate for mapping APIs. Ask Cursor to generate a function that calls `calculate_route`, and it will write the code using this MCP Server, complete with a real-world route. The agent can fetch place details using `get_place_details` and inject the JSON response right into your editor. You're not working with mock data; you're building with the actual API schema from the start.

Debug location features in your IDE

Test your logic without leaving the editor. Select a block of code, bring up the agent, and ask it to run a `geocode_search` on a tricky address. Cursor will show you the exact coordinates Geoapify returns. This is also great for validating data processing. Use `map_matching` to see how your raw GPS logs snap to the road network. The response appears right in the chat, next to your code, so you can spot issues immediately.

Handle batch jobs from your Cursor agent

Need to process a long list of addresses? Don't write a one-off script. Just tell your agent to use `create_batch_job` to geocode up to 1000 addresses asynchronously. While the job runs, you can keep coding. When it's done, use `get_batch_job` to pull the results directly into a new file in your project. It's a simple way to handle bulk location tasks without breaking your flow.

Setup guide

Set up Geoapify 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 Geoapify 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 Geoapify transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Geoapify tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Geoapify MCP in Cursor

Enable Agent mode and prompt it: "Generate a Python function that calls `calculate_route_matrix` for these 5 locations." The agent will use the MCP tool and write the code, including the API call and data handling.

Yes, use the `get_place_details` tool. First find the place with `search_places`, get its ID, then pass that ID to `get_place_details` to get information like opening hours, contact info, and more.

The MCP Server on Vinkius handles authentication for you. You just need your Vinkius endpoint token, which you can manage as a secret. The actual Geoapify key is managed by the server, not your codebase.

You can ask the Cursor agent to call the `get_elevation` tool for each coordinate. For a large list, it's better to use `create_batch_job` to process them all in a single, efficient request.
