2. Sign in
Cursor prompts you to sign in the first time a remote OAuth server is used. Backblaze B2 runs locally and needs B2_APPLICATION_KEY_ID, B2_APPLICATION_KEY. Replace the placeholder values above with your own before starting Cursor.
3. Try it
Ask Cursor for something Backblaze B2 can do. Manage B2 buckets, files, application keys and Object Lock through the native B2 and S3 compatible APIs. 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.
