Connect Amplitude to Cursor
Query your Amplitude data directly from Cursor using Sequel’s MCP server. Ask questions in plain English — no SQL, no dashboards, no context switching.
How it works
Three steps to get started
Connect Amplitude to Sequel
In your Sequel dashboard, go to Connections and add Amplitude. Sequel handles authentication and schema discovery automatically.
Add the MCP config
Copy the Sequel MCP configuration into Cursor's settings file (shown below). Swap in your API key from Settings → API Keys.
Ask Cursor about your data
Restart Cursor and start asking questions. "undefined" — and get a real answer backed by live Amplitude data.
Configuration
Add Sequel to Cursor
Place this in .cursor/mcp.json and replace sql_your_api_key with a key from Settings → API Keys.
.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"sequel": {
"url": "https://api.sequel.sh/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer sql_your_api_key"
}
}
}
}Frequently asked questions
How do I connect Amplitude to Cursor?
You need two things: (1) connect Amplitude to Sequel in your Sequel dashboard under Connections, and (2) add the Sequel MCP config to Cursor using the setup shown above. Once both are done, Cursor can query your Amplitude data directly.
What Amplitude data can Cursor access?
Cursor can access any data available through your Amplitude connection in Sequel. Use Sequel's search tool to discover available metrics and dimensions, then execute queries to pull the data you need.
Is my Amplitude data sent to Cursor's servers?
Query results are returned to Cursor as context within your conversation. Only the data you explicitly ask about is retrieved. Sequel never stores your query results permanently — they exist only for the duration of the tool call.
Do I need a Sequel account?
Yes. You need a Sequel account to connect Amplitude and generate an API key. Sign up free at sequel.sh — no credit card required. Then create a connection to Amplitude and generate an API key from Settings → API Keys.
Can I connect multiple Amplitude accounts?
Yes. Sequel supports multiple connections of the same type. If you have multiple Amplitude accounts or properties, add each as a separate connection in Sequel. Cursor will be able to query all of them.
