HERE Geocoding & Search + Cursor
Geocode addresses, reverse-geocode coordinates, autocomplete addresses as-you-type, and search places via the HERE Location Services API. Useful for address validation, delivery-route planning, and storefront locators. Free tier covers 250k requests/month.
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:
HERE_API_KEY
Step 1 — Get credentials
Credentials: generate a REST API key at https://platform.here.com → Projects → API Keys. Paste it into HERE_API_KEY when importing. The key is passed as a query parameter (apiKey), not as a header.
Pricing: HERE's Freemium plan includes 250,000 requests/month free. Bulk batch geocoding requires a paid plan.
Countries: worldwide coverage. Use in=countryCode:DEU or ISO 3-letter country filter for scope.
…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)
Step 2 — Install the adapter
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d
Step 3 — Add the connector in Cursor
Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide showsYOUR_SERVER_ID.
Cursor reads MCP servers from ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Add this entry:
{
"mcpServers": {
"anythingmcp": {
"url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID",
"headers": { "X-API-Key": "YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
}
}
}
- Get your MCP API key from AnythingMCP → MCP Servers → your server → API keys.
- Save the file and restart Cursor.
- Open Cursor → Settings → MCP to verify
