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 Bigmailer account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to create a new welcome campaign for Brand X, list all brands I manage in BigMailer, get your BigMailer account user details, 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 Bigmailer account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Create a new welcome campaign for Brand X"
  • "List all brands I manage in BigMailer"
  • "Get your BigMailer account user details"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Bigmailer MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Bigmailer account. It provides structured and secure access to your email marketing platform, so your agent can perform actions like creating transactional campaigns, retrieving your brands, and managing user account details on your behalf.

  • Automated transactional campaign creation: Have your agent quickly set up new transactional email campaigns for any of your brands, with full control over content, sender details, and subject lines.
  • Brand management and discovery: Let your agent list and organize all brands associated with your Bigmailer account, providing a clear overview for multi-brand operations.
  • User account information retrieval: Easily check your authenticated user details to verify API connectivity and view essential account information in real time.
  • Multi-brand marketing workflow automation: Empower your agent to streamline campaign launches and brand management across multiple business entities from one place.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Bigmailer authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Bigmailer connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Bigmailer connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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