What you can ask Cursor

Open the chat in Cursor and ask in your own words. Here are a few examples:

• "List my size guides"
• "Create a size guide for men's t-shirts with sizes S to XL"
• "Turn off unit conversion in my jeans size guide"
• "Show the shirts size guide on all products with the tag summer"
• "Add a how to measure section to all my size guides"
• "Why is my size guide not showing on my store?"

Good to know

• A connection works for 30 days. After that, open AI Assistants in Jotly and click Renew next to it. You do not need to set anything up again
• To remove access, open AI Assistants in Jotly, open Cursor under Connected and click Disconnect
• Each person on your team can connect their own Cursor. Every connection shows who connected it

Something not working?

• Add to Cursor did nothing: open Cursor first, then click the button again
• The connect code is not accepted: check that the store domain matches the one shown in Jotly. A code works once and expires after 10 minutes, so generate a new one and try again
• Cursor still shows that it needs authentication: you may have closed Cursor during the process, or skipped the Open Cursor prompt in Step 6. Click Authenticate again and repeat Steps 4 to 6 with a new connect code
• Cursor does not use Jotly in a chat: use Agent mode. Jotly tools are not available in Ask mode
