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 Fireflies account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to transcribe this uploaded meeting audio file, summarize your last five recorded calls, list all transcripts involving the marketing team, 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 Fireflies account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Transcribe this uploaded meeting audio file"
  • "Summarize your last five recorded calls"
  • "List all transcripts involving the marketing team"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Fireflies MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Fireflies account. It provides structured and secure access to your voice conversations, so your agent can perform actions like transcribing meetings, summarizing discussions, searching transcripts, and managing audio files on your behalf.

  • Automated meeting transcription: Instantly upload audio files or add the Fireflies bot to live meetings so your agent can generate accurate transcripts for later review.
  • AI-powered conversation summarization: Let your agent fetch concise, actionable summaries of calls and meetings to help you quickly catch up or share insights with your team.
  • Transcript search and retrieval: Ask your agent to find specific transcripts or extract key segments from past conversations using keywords, dates, or participant names.
  • Audio file management: Effortlessly upload, organize, or delete audio files and transcripts right from your agent, keeping your conversation library up to date.
  • User and team insights: Enable your agent to fetch user details or team-wide meeting data, so you can stay on top of collaboration and engagement.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Fireflies authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Fireflies connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Fireflies connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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