Connect Claude

Claude connects to Passion with your Passion account. You do not need an API key.

Before you start

Section titled “Before you start”
  • You have a Claude account. Every Claude plan can add a custom connector. On the Free plan you can add only one.
  • On a Team or Enterprise plan, only an Owner can add a custom connector. If you are not an Owner, ask one to do step 1 to 3 in Organization settings › Connectors (Add, then Custom). Then go to step 4.
  • You own a Passion App and can sign in to Passion Studio.

Connect

Section titled “Connect”

  1. On claude.ai or in Claude Desktop, open Customize › Connectors.

  2. Click Add custom connector.

  3. For the server URL, enter:

    https://api.passion.io/mcp

    Give it the name Passion. Leave the other settings as they are, then click Add.

  4. Click Connect on the Passion connector. A Passion page opens.

  5. If you are not signed in to Passion Studio, sign in.

  6. The page asks you to connect Claude to Passion:

    • Under Apps Claude can use, tick the Apps Claude may use.
    • Under What Claude can do, choose Read only (Claude sees your App’s data and changes nothing) or Full access (Claude can also make changes, such as posting to a community).

  7. Click Allow. You go back to Claude, and Passion is connected.

When Passion can confirm the request comes from Claude, the page shows a Verified mark. If the page warns that Passion can’t confirm who made the app, and you did not just start this from Claude, click Deny.

Use it

Section titled “Use it”

Start a chat and ask, for example:

Give me an overview of my App.

To turn Passion on or off for one chat, click + in the chat, choose Connectors, and use the switch next to Passion.

Before Claude runs a tool that makes changes, it asks you. Read what it will do before you agree.

Disconnect

Section titled “Disconnect”

You can disconnect in Claude, in Passion Studio, or in both.

  • In Claude: open Customize › Connectors and click Remove next to Passion.
  • In Passion Studio: open Settings › Integrations. Under Connected apps, click Revoke next to Claude. Claude can no longer reach your App, even if the connector is still in Claude.

To change the Apps or the access, revoke the connection in Studio, then connect again from Claude.

When it does not work

Section titled “When it does not work”
You see Do this
“This sign-in has expired. Start it again from the app.” Go back to Claude and click Connect again. Finish in the same browser.
“You have no App to connect yet.” Create your App in Passion Studio first.
“Staff can’t connect apps for a creator.” Only the App’s creator can connect it. Sign in as the creator.
Claude says Passion needs you to sign in again Click Connect on the Passion connector again.
