Cursor’s setup process involves the following steps:
  1. Admin enablement in Box
  2. End-user connection

Step 1: Configure Box integration

Admin
  1. Sign in to the Box Admin Console.
  2. Go to Integrations and find Custom Box MCP Server either by using the MCP Category filter, or by using the search bar at the top of the page.

  4. In Redirect URIs, change the Box redirect URIs to cursor://anysphere.cursor-mcp/oauth/callback.
