Salesforce Analytics & SOQL MCP Tools for Cursor (6)
These 6 tools become available when you connect Salesforce Analytics & SOQL to Cursor via MCP:
sf_get_dashboard
Each component includes its type, header, data values, and the source report. Dashboards provide pre-built visual summaries. Get the dashboard ID from sf_list_dashboards. Use when the user asks "show me the sales dashboard" or wants a visual summary of specific metrics. Get all component data from a specific Salesforce dashboard — charts, metrics, and tables with their underlying data
sf_list_dashboards
Returns dashboard title, folder, last referenced date, and dashboard ID. Dashboards contain visual components (charts, tables, metrics) built from reports. Use to find dashboard IDs before fetching their component data with sf_get_dashboard. List available Salesforce dashboards with title, folder, and last referenced date to discover visualization assets
sf_list_reports
Returns report name, folder path, report format (Tabular/Summary/Matrix), last run date, and report ID. Use when the user asks about available reports, wants to find a specific one, or needs report IDs before running them with sf_run_report. List available Salesforce reports with name, folder, format, and last run date to discover reporting assets
sf_record_count
Returns the total number of records. Use for quick data volume checks: "how many leads do we have?", "total number of accounts", or capacity planning. Accepts any standard or custom object API name. Get the total record count for any Salesforce object — Account, Contact, Lead, Opportunity, Case, or any custom object
sf_run_report
Get the report ID from sf_list_reports first. This is the read-only equivalent of clicking "Run Report" in the Salesforce UI. Returns up to 2000 rows. Use when the user asks for specific report data or wants to extract insights from a saved report. Execute a specific Salesforce report by ID and return its full data — all rows, columns, and groupings
sf_run_soql
This is the most powerful and flexible tool — you can query any standard or custom object, apply filters, use aggregate functions, and join related objects. Example: SELECT Id, Name, Amount, StageName FROM Opportunity WHERE StageName = 'Closed Won' AND Amount > 10000 LIMIT 10. Use when no other tool covers the specific data need, or when the user requests a custom query. Execute a raw SOQL query against your Salesforce org to retrieve any data from standard or custom objects
