Notion MCP server

Notion × Cursor

Use the Notion MCP server
in Cursor

Search pages and databases and draft content in your Notion workspace. This guide connects Notion to Cursor (the AI code editor) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Live-probed · Security-scanned · OAuth sign-in

Setup: Notion in Cursor

Cursor adds MCP servers via MCP settings or install deep links. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect Notion to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. On your gate overview, click 'Add to Cursor' — Cursor opens and asks to install the gateway.
  3. Confirm and approve the sign-in.
  4. Notion's tools are now available to Cursor's agent, governed by your rules.

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same Notion connection works in Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, VS Code too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool Notion exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything Cursor did with Notion — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

Notion passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
