How to connect multiple Googlephotos accounts to Claude

Claude does not have a built-in Googlephotos connector. If you manage separate Googlephotos accounts for different products, regions, or business units, you still need a way to connect them and choose the right account for each task.

Composio adds Googlephotos to Claude and keeps each account separate. You can give every connection a simple name, such as googlephotos-1, googlephotos-2, or googlephotos-3, and tell Claude which account to use.

• One Composio connector in Claude
• Two or more Googlephotos accounts connected behind it
• A clear name for each account
• The ability to work in the right Googlephotos account from a single Claude chat

For example:

Search my googlephotos-1 and googlephotos-2 Googlephotos accounts for anything that needs my attention from the last 7 days. Tell me which account each item came from.

Using the googlephotos-1 account, find all photos from my last vacation.

• A Claude account
• A free Composio account
• Access to each Googlephotos account you want to connect

If you use Claude Free, you can have one custom connector. If you already use that slot, you will need to remove the existing custom connector first.

If you use Claude Team or Enterprise, an Owner may need to add the connector for the organisation. Each member can then connect their own accounts.

Step 1: Add Composio to Claude (one-time process)

1. Click the button below. This will take you to the Claude Custom Connector modal.

Add to Claude

2. Click Continue

3. In the next modal, click Add

4. It will take you to the authentication page. Sign in to Composio and approve the connection.

Then return to Claude and make sure Composio is enabled.

Step 2: Connect your first Googlephotos account

In a new Claude chat, type:

Connect my googlephotos-1 Googlephotos account to Composio. Call it googlephotos-1.

Claude will give you a sign-in link.

1. Click the link.
2. Sign in to your googlephotos-1 Googlephotos account.
3. Review and approve Googlephotos's permission request.
4. Return to Claude.

Claude should confirm that the account is connected.

The name googlephotos-1 is how Claude knows which Googlephotos account to use. Choose short, obvious names. Good examples include:

• googlephotos-1
• googlephotos-2
• googlephotos-3

Step 3: Connect your second Googlephotos account

In the same Claude chat, type:

Connect another Googlephotos account. Call it googlephotos-2.

Claude will give you a new sign-in link.

1. Open the link.
2. Sign in to the second Googlephotos account.
3. Review and approve Googlephotos's permission request.
4. Return to Claude.

Claude should confirm that googlephotos-2 is connected.

Important: Check that Googlephotos is showing the second account before you approve access. If the wrong account appears, sign out or open the link in an incognito or private window.

Repeat this step for every other Googlephotos account you want to add. Give each connection a short, descriptive name such as googlephotos-1, googlephotos-2, googlephotos-3, or client-acme.

Step 4: Check your connected Googlephotos accounts

Ask Claude:

List my connected Googlephotos accounts in Composio. Show each account's name and connection status.

You should see every account you added, and each connection should show as ACTIVE.

For an extra check, ask:

Show the account email or ID and the account name for each connected Googlephotos account.

This helps you confirm that every label points to the correct Googlephotos account and that you did not connect the same account twice.

Step 5: Use the right Googlephotos account

Mention the account name whenever you ask Claude to work with Googlephotos. This is especially important when an action could change data.

Review activity across accounts

Check googlephotos-1 and googlephotos-2 for anything new in Googlephotos from the last 14 days. Group the results by account.

Create a new album for 2024 events

Using the googlephotos-1 account, create a new album for 2024 events.

Upload these images to my family album

Using the googlephotos-2 account, upload these images to my family album.

Find something across accounts

Search all connected Googlephotos accounts for customer@example.com. Show which account it appears in and summarise the latest activity.

For actions such as creating, changing, or deleting data, ask Claude to show you the planned action first and wait for your confirmation.

Add this to your Claude preferences or project instructions, replacing the examples with your own account names:

My Googlephotos accounts are: googlephotos-1 = my main account, googlephotos-2 = my second account, and googlephotos-3 = a client account. Always use the named account when I specify one. If I do not name an account, ask me which one to use. Before creating, changing, or deleting anything, show me the planned action and wait for confirmation.

The chat method is the quickest way to connect accounts. Use the dashboard when you want to add, rename, reconnect, or remove a connection.

1. Go to dashboard.composio.dev.

2. Sign in with the same Composio account you connected to Claude.
3. Open For You from the product switcher.
4. Find Googlephotos.
5. Click Connect and complete the Googlephotos authorisation flow.
6. Click Connect again to add another Googlephotos account. Composio keeps it as a separate connection instead of replacing the first.
7. Give each connection a clear label, such as googlephotos-1, googlephotos-2, or googlephotos-3.

If Googlephotos opens the wrong account during authorisation, sign out first or use an incognito or private window.

From the dashboard, you can also:

• Rename a connection when a default label such as googlephotos-2 is no longer useful.
• Disconnect or delete an account you no longer want Claude to access.
• Re-authorise an expired or revoked connection.
