Dropbox Sign (HelloSign) + Cursor

Prerequisites

See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:

DROPBOX_SIGN_API_KEY

Step 1 — Get credentials

hellosign.com).

Setup:

  1. Sign in to https://app.hellosign.com → top-right avatar → API → Test Mode + Live API → Generate API Key.
  2. Use the test API key during development; switch to live when going to production.
  3. Set DROPBOX_SIGN_API_KEY.

Authentication: HTTP Basic with username=API_KEY, password=empty.

test_mode: every write endpoint accepts test_mode=1 to NOT charge credits / NOT send real signature requests. Always test first.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Step 2 — Install the adapter

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Step 3 — Add the connector in Cursor

Cursor reads MCP servers from ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Add this entry:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Get your MCP API key from AnythingMCP → Profile → MCP API Keys → New Key.
  2. Save the file and restart Cursor.
  3. Open Cursor → Settings → MCP to verify Dropbox Sign (HelloSign) is listed and "Connected".
  4. Start chatting — all Dropbox Sign (HelloSign) tools are now invokable.
