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 Extracta ai account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to extract tables from a PDF invoice, pull key data from a scanned receipt, get extraction results for uploaded contract, 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 Extracta ai account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Extract tables from a PDF invoice"
  • "Pull key data from a scanned receipt"
  • "Get extraction results for uploaded contract"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Extracta ai MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Extracta ai account. It provides structured and secure access to your document extraction workflows, so your agent can initiate new extractions, monitor extraction status, retrieve results, and manage extraction processes automatically on your behalf.

  • Automated document data extraction: Instantly trigger new extraction processes on PDFs, images, or text files without manual intervention.
  • Real-time extraction status tracking: Let your agent check the progress, view details, and fetch results from any ongoing or completed extraction.
  • Seamless extraction management: Effortlessly delete or clean up extraction jobs after completion or if no longer needed, keeping your workspace organized.
  • End-to-end workflow orchestration: Combine extraction initiation, monitoring, and cleanup into a single automated pipeline for maximum efficiency.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Extracta ai authorization link not work?

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

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

4. Why do Extracta ai actions fail after they worked before?

The Extracta ai connection can expire or lose permission.

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

5. How do I switch to a different Extracta ai account?

Claude can manage the Extracta ai connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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