Introduction

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, available on the web, in the desktop app, and on mobile. Cowork is its agent for knowledge work, and it runs on all of those surfaces too. Connected to your apps, Claude can work with your files and services to accomplish complex tasks on your behalf.

This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Ascora account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to list all open jobs for today, create a new quotation for customer, delete a customer record by ID, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

Setup is the same on Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork, and you only need to do it once. The connector is tied to your account, so it's available in all three.

3. Connect your Ascora account

Back in Claude, ask it to connect to Ascora or give it any Ascora-related task.

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "List all open jobs for today"
  • "Create a new quotation for customer"
  • "Delete a customer record by ID"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in Claude, and your Ascora account is ready to use.

What is the Ascora Claude Connector, and what's possible with it?

The Ascora MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Ascora account. It provides structured and secure access to your field service operations, so your agent can perform actions like managing customer data, retrieving jobs, and automating quotations on your behalf.

  • Customer management and retrieval: Let your agent fetch a list of customers or access customer details to support scheduling and communications.
  • Automated quotation creation: Have your agent quickly generate new quotations for customers, streamlining your sales and service workflow.
  • Job list retrieval and filtering: Ask your agent to pull and filter job listings, making it easy to keep track of ongoing and upcoming work orders.
  • Customer record cleanup: Direct your agent to delete customer records safely after confirming their existence, helping you maintain an up-to-date database.

Troubleshooting

1. Why does Claude not use the Composio connector for Ascora?

The connector can show as connected, but Claude must use it in each Ascora conversation.

  • Click + at the lower left of the chat, or type /.
  • Hover Connectors.
  • Turn on Composio.
  • Ask Claude to connect to Ascora again.

2. Why does Claude show an MCP server error before Ascora connects?

Claude can show Couldn't reach the MCP server or Authorization with the MCP server failed when you add the connector for Ascora.

  • Check that the connector URL is https://connect.composio.dev/mcp.
  • Connectors run from Anthropic's cloud, so your device network is usually not the problem.
  • Add the connector again from Customize > Connectors, then ask Claude to connect Ascora.
  • If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

3. Why does the Ascora authorization link not work?

The Composio connector is one server. Your Ascora account connects separately when Claude asks for it.

  • If the browser does not open, or the link expires, ask Claude to retry the Ascora connection.
  • Composio creates a fresh Ascora authorization link.
  • Open that link in your browser and finish the Ascora sign-in.

4. Why do Ascora actions fail after they worked before?

The Ascora connection can expire or lose permission.

  • Ask Claude to inspect the Ascora connection.
  • If the connection is unhealthy, disconnect it when Claude prompts you.
  • Reconnect the Ascora account and retry the action.
  • If Claude shows a permission prompt, approve it before Claude changes data in Ascora.
  • If the action still fails with a permission error, check that the connected account has that permission in Ascora itself.

5. How do I switch to a different Ascora account?

Claude can manage the Ascora connection for you.

  • Ask Claude to disconnect or delete the current Ascora account.
  • Ask Claude to connect Ascora again.
  • Open the new Composio authorization link for Ascora.
  • Sign in with the other Ascora account in the browser.
  • After the account connects, ask Claude to retry the Ascora task.

6. Why is my Ascora connection missing in Claude Desktop or on a Team plan?

The connector belongs to your Claude account, so your Ascora connection works in Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork.

  • In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
  • Next to Composio, click ⋮ and click Clear cache.
  • If Ascora tools still do not appear, click ⋮, disconnect, remove the connector, and add it again.
  • On Team or Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner must enable the connector before you can connect Ascora.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Ascora MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Ascora tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Ascora and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Yes, you can. Claude Cowork fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Ascora tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Ascora scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Ascora data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
