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 Campayn account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to add new subscriber to weekly newsletter list, list all active contact lists in account, fetch details for your last sent campaign, 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 Campayn account

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Add new subscriber to weekly newsletter list"

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

The Campayn MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Campayn account. It provides structured and secure access to your contact lists, email campaigns, and subscriber management, so your agent can handle tasks like creating contacts, managing lists, fetching messages, and maintaining your email marketing automation—all on your behalf.

  • Effortless contact management: Easily add new contacts, update existing ones, or permanently delete subscribers from your Campayn lists through your agent.
  • Automated list organization: Ask your agent to create, retrieve, or clean up contact lists, making it simple to segment and manage your audience.
  • Campaign and message insights: Have your agent fetch the details of individual messages or retrieve all campaign messages to keep you up to date with your email marketing efforts.
  • Streamlined webform management: Direct your agent to delete outdated or unnecessary webforms, keeping your lead capture workflow tidy and current.
  • Bulk data retrieval: Let your agent pull all contacts in a specific list or fetch all available lists with a single command, saving you time and effort when working with large datasets.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Campayn authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Campayn connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Campayn connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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