### Alternative - install only MCP server

This guide shows you how to install and configure the DataFlint MCP (Model Context Protocol) server in Cursor, and not the full IDE extension

The entire process should take just a few minutes.

The steps are:

1. Prerequisites - Ensure you have the required tools installed
2. Configure Cursor
3. Authenticate with your organization
4. Verify the installation

### Prerequisites

* **Node.js** (version 18 or higher) installed on your system
* **npm** or **npx** available in your command line
* **Cursor** application installed
* Your **organization's customer domain** - Only for BYOC (bring your own cloud) customers. Contact your DataFlint admin if you don't know this.

### Installation

#### Step 1: Open MCP configuration in Cursor

You can configure DataFlint MCP directly in Cursor's settings:

1. Open Cursor
2. Go to **Cursor** menu → **Settings...** → **Cursor Settings**
3. In the left sidebar, click on **Tools & MCP**
4. Click the **Add Custom MCP** button

#### Step 2: Configure DataFlint MCP server

In the MCP configuration dialog that appears, add the DataFlint MCP server configuration:

**For SaaS customers:**

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dataflint": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@dataflint/mcp-server@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

**For BYOC (bring your own cloud) customers:**

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dataflint": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@dataflint/mcp-server@latest",
        "--customer-domain",
        "YOUR_COMPANY_NAME"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

Click **Save** to apply the configuration.

#### Step 3: First-time authentication

When you first use DataFlint MCP in Cursor:

1. Your browser will automatically open to your organization's authentication page
2. Log in with your organization credentials
3. Subsequent uses will not require browser authentication!
