How to Use the Yida MCP in Cursor

Q: How does Yida work with Cursor?

You set up the MCP Server in your project's .cursor/mcp.json file. When you activate Agent mode, the AI sees all available tools and uses them to inject real data directly into the code you are writing.

Q: Can I get structured data from Yida using Cursor?

Absolutely. By calling getrecorddetails or listdataids, the MCP Server returns live JSON payloads. The AI then integrates this structure directly into your function body.

Perplexity

Write Code Against Live Yida Records

The MCP Server provides `get_record_details` and `list_data_ids`. This means when you're writing a function, the AI can call these tools to pull live data into your code block. You get real API responses, not fake stubs. For example, if you're building a dashboard widget, the agent pulls details for specific records before you even hit run.

Build Code that Manages Yida Forms

Need to programmatically manage forms? Use `get_form_schema` first. This tool lets the AI inspect exactly what fields a form has, so it can write accurate code for creation or updating. The agent also handles writing logic around `create_record` and `update_record`, letting you build reliable data entry points into your application's codebase.

Model Yida Workflows in Code

You can inspect the structure of the platform with tools like `list_forms` and `list_workflows`. This gives your code the necessary context to build around existing business processes. Furthermore, the agent exposes user lists via `list_users`, letting you write functions that validate permissions before running any data-changing logic.

Setup guide

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