How to Add Connectors to Claude

You can add a connector from Claude’s directory or configure a custom connector through remote MCP.

Adding a directory connector

‍

1. Go to Customize > Connectors in Claude.

4. Click Connect, then complete the authentication process.
5. Open a chat and click + > Connectors to enable it for that conversation.

On Claude Team (opens in a new tab) and Enterprise plans, an Owner must first enable the connector for the organization. Each member then authenticates their own account unless the organization uses enterprise-managed authorization.

3. Add OAuth credentials under Advanced settings if required.

How to Choose the Right Claude Connectors

Choose connectors based on where your team stores important context and what you want Claude to do. Start with two or three tools tied to a clear workflow.

Before connecting an app, consider:

• Available actions: Check whether the connector can only read data or can also create, update, and delete it.
• Permissions: Claude inherits your access from the connected service. It cannot retrieve information your account cannot access.
• Context quality: Organized files, tasks, and records help Claude return more relevant answers.
• Workflow value: Prioritize connectors that reduce repeated searching, data entry, or switching between apps.

Review each connector’s capabilities and requested permissions before enabling it. Then test it against one recurring workflow before adding more tools.
