How to add the Notion MCP server to Cursor

Server URL: https://mcp.notion.com/mcp
Sign-in: OAuth. Your client opens a browser window to sign in.
Our hands-on result: Works 6 of 6 tasks passed, tested Oct 16, 2026 with MCP Inspector (reference client).

Cursor setup

File: ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or .cursor/mcp.json in a project)

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

1. Save, open Cursor Settings, then MCP, and click Connect to sign in.

We ran the hands-on test in a reference client, not in Cursor. This config follows Cursor's documented format for remote (Streamable HTTP) servers. If it fails for you, tell us and we will retest.
