How to Use the Northbeam MCP in Cursor

Q: Can Cursor use Northbeam data to build custom charts?

Absolutely. Since the agent can pull raw data via listmetrics, it can generate code to render charts based on your actual performance.

Build your marketing dashboard in Cursor with live Northbeam data. Stop using mock data and start coding with real attribution stats.

Inject Northbeam data into your code with Cursor

The AI writes code that actually talks to your marketing data. Use `list_metrics` and `list_breakdowns` to feed real performance numbers into your scripts. Your editor generates functional code based on current API responses. You stop guessing if your logic works against live data.

Automate attribution reporting in Cursor

Script your reporting pipeline by calling `create_data_export` directly from your project files. Your agent manages the export lifecycle. Check `get_export_status` within your chat panel to confirm job completion. It turns a manual chore into a simple function call.

Verify Northbeam settings via Cursor agent

Query your account configuration before you write your data-processing logic. Use `get_account_info` to confirm your workspace settings. This prevents errors caused by mismatched attribution models. Your code is always built against the correct account environment.

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 Northbeam MCP
