# Connect from Claude.ai

> How to connect the Nexudus MCP server to Claude.ai using the Connectors directory.

# Connect from Claude.ai

Claude.ai connects to MCP servers through its **Connectors** feature. The Nexudus MCP server appears as a custom connector you add once and reuse across chats.

## Prerequisites

* A **Claude.ai** account on a plan that supports custom connectors (Pro, Team, or Enterprise at the time of writing).
* A **Nexudus** account with API access.
* A web browser.

<Info>
  The Connectors feature is available on Claude.ai's paid plans. Free accounts cannot add custom MCP connectors. Check your plan on the Claude.ai
  billing page if you are unsure.
</Info>

## Add the Nexudus connector

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Claude.ai settings">
    Sign in to [claude.ai](https://claude.ai), open the menu, and choose **Settings**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go to Connectors">
    In the settings sidebar, open **Connectors** (sometimes labelled **Integrations**).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a custom connector">
    Click **Add custom connector**. A dialog appears asking for a name and a remote MCP server URL.
  </Step>

  </Step>

  <Step title="Sign in to Nexudus">
    Claude.ai opens a browser window to the Nexudus login page. Enter your Nexudus email and password and approve the connection. You are
    redirected back to Claude.ai, and the connector is marked **Connected**.

  </Step>
</Steps>

## Verify it works

Start a new chat and ask:

> *"List my Nexudus locations."*

Claude should call the Nexudus connector and return your locations. If it does not, see [Troubleshooting](/mcp/troubleshooting).

## Using the connector in chats

Once connected, the Nexudus tools are available in any chat. You don't need to enable the connector each time. Some prompts to try:

* *"Show me all upcoming bookings for my main location this week."*
* *"How many visitors are expected today?"*
* *"List all members whose contracts expire next month."*
* *"Create a new product called 'Day Pass' priced at £25 at my main location."*

<Warning>
  Claude.ai can create, update, and delete real data through the connector. Always read the proposed action before confirming, especially for
  destructive operations. There is no undo button.
</Warning>

## Disconnect or re-authenticate

To disconnect, return to **Settings → Connectors** and click **Disconnect** next to the Nexudus connector. To re-authenticate after the 8-hour session
expires, open the connector and choose **Reconnect** — Claude.ai walks you back through the login.

## Common issues

| Issue                                              | Solution                                                                                        |
| -------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Claude says it cannot reach the Nexudus connector  | Open Settings → Connectors and click **Reconnect**. The session may have expired (8 hours).     |
| Claude lists no Nexudus tools                      | The connector finished registering but failed to load tools — disconnect and reconnect.         |
| Login redirects to a Nexudus error page            | Your Nexudus credentials may have changed. Try logging in directly at spaces.nexudus.com first. |
| Claude proposes the wrong field name when updating | Ask Claude to describe the entity first — *"Describe the 'products' entity before updating."*   |
