Connect Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop) to Floxar
claude.ai and Claude Desktop share the same connectors, so you add Floxar once as a custom connector and use it in both. Claude identifies itself to Floxar with its own Client ID Metadata Document: you enter no client ID or secret. Reading, running trails and authoring through Claude are confirmed.
Before you start, make sure MCP is on for your account and have your account URL ready. Connecting an AI client explains both, and what the sign-in and consent page show.
Add Floxarโ
- In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors, and select Add custom connector.
- Give it a name for the account, such as
acme-floxar, paste your account URL, and select Add. - Select Connect. Sign in to Floxar in the browser window, confirm the account and allow the connection.
- In a chat, open the tools menu and make sure the Floxar connector is turned on.
The remote MCP server URL is your account URL:
https://mcp.floxar.com/a/<account_id>
What the sign-in looks likeโ
The consent page shows Claude under Floxar's label for it, with the domain it identifies itself with and where the connection returns to. Claude asks for every capability the account allows, and to stay connected; the consent page lists what the account leaves of that.
Known limitsโ
- One connection covers both. When claude.ai and Claude Desktop use the same connector, one sign-in covers both, and ending the connection in Floxar disconnects both.
- Removing the connector in Claude revokes nothing in Floxar. The connection stays active until you or an account admin end it in Floxar (see "Disconnecting and revoking" in Connecting an AI client).
- A mistyped URL is reported by Claude as "Not found" when you add the connector.
- After a connection is revoked in Floxar, Claude may show "This connector has no tools available" until you disconnect and reconnect the connector.
- Adding access later means reconnecting. To give the connector more capabilities than it was first allowed, disconnect and reconnect it; the new consent lists what it gets.
