Read and write Airtable bases, tables and records.

Official serverRemoteDatabases

1. Add the server

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json (project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "airtable": {
      "url": "https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

2. Sign in

Cursor prompts you to sign in the first time a remote OAuth server is used. Airtable is hosted by Airtable, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.

3. Try it

Ask Cursor for something Airtable can do. Read and write Airtable bases, tables and records. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.

· Remote servers take a url; local servers take command and args.
· Values can reference ${env:NAME} so secrets stay out of the file.
