Cursor

Connect RocketReach to Cursor

Bring RocketReach's people and company data into Cursor by installing the RocketReach MCP server and approving access.


Requirements

  • A RocketReach account (free or paid plan)

Steps to Connect

1. Install the RocketReach MCP server

Click the one-click install link:

Install RocketReach in Cursor

Or add it manually by putting this in ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rocketreach": {
      "url": "https://mcp.rocketreach.co/mcp"
    }
  }
}

2. Sign in and approve access

The first time you use RocketReach, sign in to your RocketReach account in the browser and approve access.

Edited mcp.json by hand? Restart Cursor so it picks up the new server. If you used the install link, no restart is needed.

3. Test the connection

Ask Cursor:

What RocketReach tools do you have?

If Cursor lists the RocketReach tools, you're all set.


Example Prompts

Try these once you're connected:

  • Find 5 decision-makers at [company] and add them to leads.csv.
  • Write a script that enriches companies.csv with industry and employee count from RocketReach.
  • Show which fields a RocketReach person lookup returns so I can design my CRM schema.
