Pull Live Metrics into Cursor

`sf_campaign_performance` feeds real aggregate campaign data into your IDE. When you write a custom reporting script, Cursor's Agent mode calls the tool and gets actual conversion numbers. You are coding against real data, not mock JSON objects. You can pair this with `sf_campaigns_by_status` to filter active initiatives. If you are building a dashboard component, Cursor fetches the In Progress campaigns and maps the exact schema for lead counts and budgets into your React props. It saves you hours of documentation reading.

Script Campaign Logic via MCP Server

`sf_create_campaign` allows Cursor to spin up test campaigns while you write automation logic. You tell the agent to create a Webinar campaign, and it executes the request. It returns the actual Salesforce ID you need to test your API routes. After creation, `sf_search_campaigns` verifies the record exists. Your AI client confirms the start dates and budgeted costs are correct in the system. You test your integration logic without ever leaving the editor.

Map Lead Relationships

`sf_campaign_members` pulls the exact lead and contact types associated with a campaign. Cursor reads the response dates and statuses to help you write accurate data transformation functions. You get the real shape of the membership data straight from the source. To test write operations, `sf_add_campaign_member` pushes a contact ID into the campaign. Cursor handles the status assignment. You can write your custom CRM sync script and let the agent verify the insertion worked.

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".

Common questions about Salesforce Marketing Cloud MCP in Cursor

Create an mcp.json file in your project root or global .cursor directory. Add the server command, enable Agent mode in the chat, and your tools are ready.

It pulls the exact conversion counts and budget numbers. You can ask Cursor to generate a chart component using the real performance data it just fetched.

You can test your sync logic immediately. Cursor uses the membership tools to add leads and verify their response status directly within your workspace.

Tell the agent to search by name. It retrieves the type, status, and budget, which you can then use to populate your test variables.

Cursor only processes the specific lead IDs and response dates you request during an active prompt. The zero-trust MCP architecture ensures these credentials and data points are never stored or used to train models.
