Add the Notion MCP server to Cursor

Search, read and update Notion pages and databases in the signed-in user's workspace.

Official serverRemoteWork management

1. Add the server

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

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

2. Sign in

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

3. Try it

Ask Cursor for something Notion can do. Search, read and update Notion pages and databases in the signed-in user's workspace. 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.
