Set up Claude Connector with Remote MCP Private Preview Recommended models: Claude Sonnet 4+

You can connect Claude Connector to the Atlan Remote MCP server to access Atlan metadata directly from the Claude web interface. This lets you search for assets, explore lineage, update metadata, create glossary terms, and more—without leaving your browser.

Claude Connector uses OAuth for authentication, which means users log in with their Atlan account and all existing roles and permissions are respected automatically. API Key authentication isn't supported for Claude Connector.

Prerequisites​

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  • An Atlan tenant with Remote MCP enabled. If you don't have access, contact Atlan support or your Atlan customer team to request it.
  • Access to Claude.ai with a plan that supports connectors.
  • Administrator access to your Claude organization settings (required for Step 1).

Set up Claude connector​

  1. In Claude, navigate to Settings → Connectors → Organisation Connector → Add custom connector, and provide the MCP server URL. This step must be completed by an administrator.

    https://<your-tenant>.atlan.com/mcp

  2. Save the connector.

  3. In the Chat UI, go to Search and Tools → Add Custom Connector → Your Connector.

  4. Select the Atlan connector and complete the OAuth login flow. Once authentication is complete, the connector is ready to use.

  5. You can now use Atlan MCP tools directly in your Claude conversations. See MCP chat use cases for examples of what you can do.
