Go to Tools & MCP section 5. Click + 'New MCP Server'. 6. Choose Manual and paste the contents of [this](https://github.com/scraperapi/scraperapi-mcp/blob/main/README.md#installation) JSON configuration file. ### Parameters | **`scrape`** (required) | Tells the LLM to scrape a URL from the internet using ScraperAPI. | | ------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **`url`** (requierd) | URL you wish to scrape. | | **`render`** (optional) | Defaults to **`False`**.

Set to `True` only if you want the output format in csv or json. | ### Prompt Example Get product data information from Amazon *- "Scrape Amazon for iPhone 16 and return the first 10 results."* #### Response Cursor successfully executed an Amazon search through ScraperAPI by simply recognizing the word 'scrape' in the prompt, which acts as the trigger for invoking the ScraperAPI MCP tool. Cursor called ScraperAPI, which handled the request and scraped the data without getting blocked or requiring any additional input or prompt adjustments. All the underlying complexity, such as proxy rotation and anti-bot handling was managed by ScraperAPI, allowing the data to be reliably retrieved and transformed into useful information.
