Cursor

How to use HubSpot with Cursor

You want HubSpot inside Cursor so it can qualify and update sales opportunities, keep CRM records current, prepare for customer meetings, and log and associate sales activity — without you copy-pasting between tabs. Here is the whole setup, once.

Create your HubSpot gateway

The gateway is the thing Cursor connects to, and it is where you decide which HubSpot tools an agent may use. You create it once and every client reuses it.

Create an Arcade account

Sign up and open the dashboard. The free tier is enough to follow this through.
Create an MCP Gateway and select your HubSpot tools

In the dashboard, create a gateway and pick the HubSpot tools you want to expose. The gateway is what your client connects to, and it is where tool access is decided.
Copy your gateway URL

Every client below needs it.
```
https://api.arcade.dev/mcp/<YOUR-GATEWAY-SLUG>
```

Create a HubSpot gateway Opens the gateway builder in your Arcade dashboard.

Connect the gateway to Cursor

Heads up

Cursor does not refresh MCP OAuth tokens automatically. For a persistent connection, set Authorization to “Arcade Headers” on the gateway in the dashboard.

Open MCP settings

Command Palette (⌘⇧P / Ctrl+Shift+P) → Open MCP Settings, then click “New MCP Server”.

Add the gateway to mcpServers

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-arcade": {
      "url": "https://api.arcade.dev/mcp/<YOUR-GATEWAY-SLUG>"
    }
  }
}
