Cursor Integration

Connect Json2doc with Cursor IDE to generate documents while coding with AI assistance.

Prerequisites​

Configuration​

In Cursor:

  1. Open Settings (Cmd/Ctrl + ,)
  2. Search for "MCP" or navigate to MCP configuration
  3. Add the Json2doc MCP server:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "json2doc": {
      "url": "https://mcp.json2doc.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}
warning

Replace your-api-key-here with your actual Json2doc API key from app.json2doc.com → Settings → API Keys.

After saving, reload Cursor (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + P → "Reload Window")

Verification​

To verify the integration is working:

  1. Open the Cursor chat (Cmd/Ctrl + L)
  2. Ask: "What Json2doc capabilities do you have?"
  3. Cursor should list the available Json2doc tools
