Integration · Cursor × LinkedIn Ads
Run LinkedIn Ads inside Cursor
NotFair connects Cursor to live LinkedIn Ads through the same hosted MCP endpoint used across the product. Campaign groups, campaigns, creatives, targeting, and analytics.
Connect your LinkedIn Ads account
Authorize once at notfair.co — then open Cursor and start asking real questions about your account.
Setup
Connect Cursor in three steps
Cursor uses NotFair's hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint. NotFair hosts LinkedIn Marketing API OAuth. You authorize Campaign Manager accounts without creating a LinkedIn developer app.
1. Open Cursor's MCP config
In Cursor, open Settings → MCP and click "Edit Config". Or open ~/.cursor/mcp.json directly.
2. Add NotFair
Add the hosted server under mcpServers.
{ "mcpServers": { "NotFair-LinkedInAds": { "url": "https://notfair.co/api/mcp/notfair" } } }3. Authorize LinkedIn Ads
Open /connect/linkedin-ads on notfair.co, complete the hosted connection, and select the accounts or properties Cursor may use.
