How do I get my ZoomInfo API credentials?

You need a **ZoomInfo Enterprise plan** with API access enabled. Log in as an admin user. Navigate to **Admin → Integrations → API**. Click **Generate Credentials** to create your **Client ID** and **Client Secret**. Copy both values and paste them below. Note: API access requires admin approval — if you don't see the API section, contact your ZoomInfo account manager.

Can my AI agent find VP-level contacts at specific companies?

Yes. Ask 'Find all VP-level contacts at Salesforce in Engineering' and get verified names, titles, emails, direct dial numbers, and LinkedIn profiles — ready for immediate outreach without any data cleanup.

Can I enrich my existing CRM contacts with ZoomInfo data?

Yes. Provide an email or company name and ZoomInfo returns the latest verified data — including updated job titles, phone numbers, company revenue, employee count, and tech stack. Perfect for cleaning stale CRM records before outreach campaigns.

Is intent data available through the API?

Yes, if your ZoomInfo plan includes Intent Data. Your AI agent can query which companies are actively researching topics related to your product — giving your sales team a warm lead signal before prospects even visit your website.

ZoomInfo + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating ZoomInfo 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.
