Cursor

How to use Microsoft OneDrive with Cursor

You want Microsoft OneDrive inside Cursor so it can find and review files, clean up duplicate files, organize a shared folder, and review and control file access — without you copy-pasting between tabs. Here is the whole setup, once.

Create your Microsoft OneDrive gateway

The gateway is the thing Cursor connects to, and it is where you decide which Microsoft OneDrive 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 Microsoft OneDrive tools

In the dashboard, create a gateway and pick the Microsoft OneDrive 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>
```

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>"
    }
  }
}

Try these OneDrive prompts

Cursor can now act on your Microsoft OneDrive account. Click a prompt to copy it.

Use permissions to control whether an agent can create share links, move files, or delete them. Pair it with Contextual Access policies so an agent can find and read files without being allowed to share or delete them.
