How do I find my HighLevel API v2 Access Token?

You can obtain an API v2 Access Token by creating an application in the **HighLevel Developer Portal** (marketplace.gohighlevel.com) and performing the OAuth 2.0 handshake. Ensure you grant the necessary scopes for contacts and opportunities.

Can I check calendar availability in real-time?

Yes! Use the `get_calendar_free_slots` tool by providing the calendar ID and a date range. The agent will return all available appointment slots for that period.

Does the integration support creating new opportunities?

Yes, you can use the `create_opportunity` tool. You must provide a JSON string containing the pipeline ID, stage ID, and contact details to add a new deal to your sales funnel.

Is the integration secure for CRM data?

Absolutely. The integration uses official HighLevel API v2 OAuth 2.0 Bearer tokens over HTTPS. Your credentials and customer data are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.

HighLevel + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating HighLevel 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.
