Connect Cursor

Add SheetBase to Cursor using the MCP settings panel or mcp.json.

Prerequisites

Steps

  1. Open Cursor MCP settings.

    Open Cursor’s MCP settings or use the Command Palette and choose the option to add an MCP server.

  2. Add a new MCP server.

    Enter:

    • Name: sheetbase
    • URL: https://sheetbase.flonest.app/api/mcp
    • Transport: automatic HTTP negotiation

    Or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "sheetbase": {
          "url": "https://sheetbase.flonest.app/api/mcp"
        }
      }
    }
  3. Reload Cursor.

    Reload the Cursor window so it discovers the new server.

  4. Authorize SheetBase.

    When Cursor first calls SheetBase, it opens the browser authorization flow. Sign in, review the requesting client, and choose Allow.

  5. Test the connection.

    Ask Cursor to list available tools or spreadsheets.

Reconnecting after the OAuth security migration

Old OAuth clients and tokens are intentionally invalidated by the migration to the stable OAuth Provider. Remove the old SheetBase server connection and add it again once. Your SheetBase user, Google connection, and API keys remain.

See Reconnect SheetBase OAuth.
