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 Iqair airvisual account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to show today's air quality in Los Angeles, list cities in Maharashtra, India with data, get historical AQI for Paris last week, 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.

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

The Iqair airvisual MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Iqair airvisual account. It provides structured and secure access to rich global air quality data, so your agent can perform actions like retrieving real-time AQI, forecasting pollution, checking historical trends, and ranking cities worldwide by air quality on your behalf.

  • Real-time city and station air quality: Instantly fetch current air quality and weather data for any supported city or monitoring station, based on precise location or station ID.
  • Air quality forecasting: Ask your agent to provide air quality forecasts for specific cities, helping you plan activities based on pollution trends.
  • Historical AQI analysis: Retrieve historical air quality index readings for cities to analyze patterns, spot trends, or track improvements over time.
  • World AQI rankings: Get live rankings of cities worldwide based on current AQI data, or easily find the most and least polluted cities globally.
  • Location-based discovery: Let your agent list supported countries, states, and cities, or pinpoint the nearest air quality stations and cities using GPS coordinates or IP address.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Iqair airvisual authorization link not work?

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

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

4. Why do Iqair airvisual actions fail after they worked before?

The Iqair airvisual connection can expire or lose permission.

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

5. How do I switch to a different Iqair airvisual account?

Claude can manage the Iqair airvisual connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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