[Bug] "Request type deprecated" error in Cursor v1.6.46 (Windows)

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Hi team,

After updating to the latest version (v1.6.46, Windows 10 x64), Cursor shows the following error whenever I try to use AI features:

{
“error”: “ERROR_DEPRECATED”,
“details”: {
“title”: “Request type deprecated.”,
“detail”: “This endpoint is deprecated. Please upgrade to the latest version of Cursor.”,
“isRetryable”: false
},
“isExpected”: false
}

Steps I tried:

  • Reinstalled v1.6.46 (system setup)
  • Downgraded to v1.5.x
  • Cleared cache and config files
  • Tried different networks

The issue persists.
Looks like Cursor is still calling the old api.cursor.sh endpoint which seems to be deprecated.

Questions:

  1. Will v1.6.47+ fix this by switching to api.cursor.com?
  2. Is there a temporary workaround for current users?

Environment:

  • Windows 10 x64 (Build 26100)
  • Cursor v1.6.46 (system setup)
  • VSCode version 1.99.3

Steps to Reproduce

Open Cursor v1.6.46 (system setup, Windows 10 x64)

Try to use any AI feature (chat or code generation)

Error message appears: ERROR_DEPRECATED

Expected Behavior

AI features should work without error.

It seems related to deprecated API endpoint (api.cursor.sh).
