Add the Postman MCP server to Cursor

Use Postman workspaces, collections, environments and APIs from an agent.

Official serverRemote + localDeveloper tools

1. Add the server

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

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

2. Sign in

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

3. Try it

Ask Cursor for something Postman can do. Use Postman workspaces, collections, environments and APIs from an agent. 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.
