Inject live Marketo data into Cursor

Stop using mock data for your marketing scripts. Use the MCP Server to fetch real `get_lead_by_id` responses while you write your code in Agent mode. Cursor writes functional code based on actual API outputs. You see exactly how the JSON structure looks before you deploy your integration.

Manage programs via Cursor agents

Your agent can list all programs using `list_programs` and pull specific details with `get_program_by_id`. This keeps your technical documentation aligned with your live marketing setup. It removes the friction of manual lookup. Your code reflects the current state of your account because the agent reads the source of truth directly.

Automate lead list retrieval in Cursor

Feed lead segments into your logic using `list_leads_by_list`. You can iterate over these records in your scripts without writing a single custom API client. The tools handle the connection for you. You focus on the business logic while the agent handles the heavy lifting of data retrieval.

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)

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".

Add the Marketo 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.
