The web URL method is the simplest and most stable approach. You can use it immediately without any installation or setup.

​
3. Connect to MCP Server

​

Check the MCP server URL provided in the MCP section of the Mintlify dashboard: 
https://developers.argosidentity.com/mcp

​
3.2. Add MCP in Cursor Settings

There are two ways to add an MCP server in Cursor IDE:
  1. Launch Cursor IDE.
  2. Go to Settings:
    • Windows/Linux: Ctrl + , or File → Preferences → Settings from the menu
    • macOS: Cmd + , or Cursor → Settings from the menu
  3. Type MCP or Model Context Protocol in the search box.

​
Method 2: Direct Configuration File Editing

  1. Open the Cursor IDE configuration file:
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Cursor\User\settings.json
    • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/settings.json
    • Linux: ~/.config/Cursor/User/settings.json
  2. Add the following configuration: 
{
  "mcp.servers": {
    "argosidentity": {
      "url": "https://developers.argosidentity.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
When editing the configuration file directly, ensure the JSON format is correct. Format errors may cause Cursor to malfunction.
MCP settings in Cursor can be managed at Settings → Features → Model Context Protocol. If you edited the configuration file directly, you need to restart Cursor for the changes to take effect.

​

If you edited the configuration file directly, completely quit and restart Cursor IDE.

​
