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 Heyzine account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to convert this PDF to a flipbook instantly, get embed code for your latest flipbook, list all flipbooks I published this month, 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 Heyzine account

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Convert this PDF to a flipbook instantly"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Heyzine MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Heyzine account. It provides structured and secure access to your digital publishing tools, so your agent can create flipbooks, manage existing publications, retrieve embed codes, and automate PDF-to-flipbook conversions on your behalf.

  • Instant flipbook creation: Quickly convert PDFs, DOCX, or PPTX files into interactive flipbooks with a single prompt.
  • Automated flipbook management: Effortlessly list, retrieve, or delete existing flipbooks from your Heyzine account without manual work.
  • Seamless website integration: Instantly fetch HTML or iframe embed codes for any flipbook, making it easy to add rich publications to your site.
  • Social sharing optimization: Retrieve and refine social metadata for your flipbooks, like title, description, and thumbnails, to boost engagement.
  • API usage monitoring: Let your agent check API rate limits and monitor usage to ensure smooth, uninterrupted publishing workflows.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Heyzine authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Heyzine connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Heyzine connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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