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 ScrapeCreators account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to scrape recent posts from username, extract public profile and follower counts, find sponsored posts mentioning product keywords, 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 ScrapeCreators Claude Connector, and what's possible with it?

The ScrapeCreators MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your ScrapeCreators account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform ScrapeCreators operations on your behalf.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the ScrapeCreators authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The ScrapeCreators connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the ScrapeCreators connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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