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 Baserow account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to list all databases in your main workspace, show tables in the marketing database, get details for tables in project database, 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 Baserow account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "List all databases in your main workspace"
  • "Show tables in the marketing database"
  • "Get details for tables in project database"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Baserow MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Baserow account. It provides structured and secure access to your Baserow workspaces and databases, so your agent can perform actions like discovering databases, listing tables, and streamlining workspace exploration on your behalf.

  • Workspace database discovery: Have your agent quickly list all databases within any of your Baserow workspaces, making it easy to navigate large projects.
  • Table enumeration in databases: Let your agent fetch a full list of tables for any selected database, helping you understand and manage your data structures.
  • Metadata retrieval for planning: Enable your agent to gather essential metadata about databases and tables, laying the groundwork for more advanced automations or integrations.
  • Seamless data navigation: Guide your agent to explore and map your Baserow environment, so it can support you in building custom workflows or data pipelines.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

  • 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 Baserow.
  • If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

3. Why does the Baserow authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Baserow connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Baserow connection for you.

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

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

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

  • In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
  • Next to Composio, click ⋮ and click Clear cache.
  • If Baserow 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 Baserow.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Baserow MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Baserow tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Baserow 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 Baserow tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Baserow 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 Baserow data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
