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 Zyte api account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to check if there are any unresolved Zyte incidents, list all upcoming scheduled maintenances for Zyte, summarize Zyte API service health status, 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 Zyte api account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Check if there are any unresolved Zyte incidents"
  • "List all upcoming scheduled maintenances for Zyte"
  • "Summarize Zyte API service health status"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Zyte api MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Zyte api account. It provides structured and secure access to Zyte's web scraping and status monitoring tools, so your agent can perform actions like checking service health, monitoring incidents, reviewing maintenance schedules, and analyzing component statuses on your behalf.

  • Real-time service health summaries: Instantly request a high-level overview of Zyte API status, including component health, unresolved incidents, and active maintenances.
  • Incident monitoring and retrieval: Let your agent fetch unresolved incidents or review recent status incidents to stay on top of service disruptions and outages.
  • Maintenance schedule tracking: Ask your agent to list upcoming or currently active scheduled maintenances, so you never miss important downtime windows.
  • Component health insights: Have the agent retrieve detailed statuses for individual Zyte API components, helping you quickly diagnose potential issues in your pipeline.
  • Automated status rollups and alerts: Get consolidated summaries of the overall Zyte API health or trigger alerts when new incidents or maintenances are detected.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Zyte api authorization link not work?

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

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

4. Why do Zyte api actions fail after they worked before?

The Zyte api connection can expire or lose permission.

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

5. How do I switch to a different Zyte api account?

Claude can manage the Zyte api connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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