How to Use the Heap MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add Heap to my Cursor project?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root. Include the server configuration there, and Cursor will load the tools in Agent mode automatically.

Q: Does Cursor allow bulk tracking with Heap?

Yes. If you need to test high-volume event patterns, call bulktrackevents from your terminal or chat. It processes multiple signals in a single request.

Q: Can I update user properties in Cursor using Heap?

Use adduserproperties or bulkadduserproperties to modify profile metadata. This is useful when you're testing new user onboarding flows in your local dev branch.

Inject real analytics into your Cursor codebase. Call Heap tools while you write code to verify event implementation instantly.

Real-time analytics in Cursor

Stop guessing if your tracking code works. Use `track_event` inside Cursor to send live signals from your local environment and see them land in your project immediately. The AI writes the calls for you based on your current code. It ensures your event structure matches your definitions without manual lookup.

Sync user identity in Cursor

Connect your backend logic to your analytics platform during development. Use `identify_user` to bridge the gap between anonymous visitors and logged-in accounts as you refactor your auth flow. This keeps your data model tight. You'll catch mapping errors before they ever reach production.

Query user segments in Cursor

Get immediate feedback on your segment definitions without leaving your editor. Use `get_segments` to list and filter your target groups while writing code that depends on those specific user subsets. You can even use `query_user_profiles` to pull specific records for debugging. It turns your code editor into a powerful data validation tool.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Cursor handles your API keys through your local configuration. No data is stored or cached by the editor itself, as it simply proxies requests to the analytics API.

The server handles all interactions, and you control every request. You can use `delete_user_data` to purge specific test profiles to ensure your development data remains clean.
