What is the Baserow MCP Server?
Connect your Baserow account to any AI agent and take full control of your no-code relational databases and automated data management workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Workspace & Database Orchestration — List and monitor your entire Baserow ecosystem programmatically, from high-level workspaces to individual database applications
- Schema Intelligence — Access and manage tables and fields within your databases to maintain a perfectly coordinated high-fidelity data structure in real-time
- Row Lifecycle Management — Programmatically list, create, update, and delete rows in any table, retrieving detailed high-fidelity records using custom field names
- Search & Discovery — Use semantic keywords to search for specific records across your tables to maintain a perfectly coordinated digital ledger
- Infrastructure Monitoring — Retrieve metadata for database tokens and verify account-level permissions directly through your agent for instant reporting
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Retrieve your Database Token from your Baserow settings (Settings > Database Tokens)
3. Start managing your no-code backend from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
No more manual entry into spreadsheet-like tables or digging through complex relations. Your AI acts as your dedicated database engineer and data architect.
Who is this for?
- Project Teams — instantly retrieve project records and update statuses using natural language commands
- Data Analysts — automate the collection of structured information and manage relational tables without leaving your workspace
- Developers — integrate high-speed no-code backends into custom business workflows through simple AI queries

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Baserow into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Baserow and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 9 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Baserow Database Token?
Log in to your account, navigate to Settings > Database Tokens, and create a new token with appropriate workspace permissions.
Can I search for records via AI?
Yes! The search_rows tool allows your agent to find records across a specific table matching your search criteria programmatically.
How do I find Table and Database IDs?
Use the list_applications tool to find Database IDs, and list_database_tables to find Table IDs within a specific application.
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.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
