Shipcloud Multi-Carrier Shipping + Cursor
Create shipments, generate labels, and track parcels across all major German and European carriers (DHL, DPD, GLS, Hermes, UPS, FedEx, TNT) through Shipcloud — the leading multi-carrier shipping aggregator for DE.
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:
SHIPCLOUD_API_KEY
Step 1 — Get credentials
Credentials: a single API key (Basic auth username, empty password). Generate one at https://app.shipcloud.io/account under API-Keys. Paste it into SHIPCLOUD_API_KEY when importing.
Carriers covered: dhl, dhl_express, dpd, gls, hermes, ups, fedex, tnt, go, deutsche_post, iloxx, parcelone, skynet, liefery. Use shipcloud_list_carriers to retrieve IDs and available service products.
Label creation: shipcloud_create_shipment returns a downloadable label URL plus a carrier_tracking_no and a shipcloud tracking_url. Labels are PDF by default.
…(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
