Connect PortEden to Claude.ai

Add PortEden as a connector on claude.ai so Claude can securely access your email, calendar, drive, and task management tools. Connectors added here automatically sync across claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Claude Cowork, and Claude mobile.

Tip

This is the simplest way to connect PortEden. No config files, no terminal commands — just paste a URL and complete the OAuth sign-in.

Prerequisites

A PortEden account at my.porteden.com with at least one service connected
A Claude account at claude.ai (Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise — free plan supports 1 connector)

Step 1: Open Connectors

Go to claude.ai

Open claude.ai in your browser and sign in.

Navigate to Customize > Connectors

In the sidebar, open Customize, then select Connectors.

Add a Custom Connector

Click the + button, then select Add custom connector.

Step 2: Add a PortEden Connection

Paste the PortEden endpoint URL for the connection you want. For example, to add email access:

https://mcp.porteden.com/email

Click Add. Claude will detect this is an MCP endpoint and open the PortEden OAuth consent screen. Sign in with your PortEden account and approve the connection.

Note

Claude stores the token securely. You never need to copy-paste tokens. When the token expires, Claude will re-trigger the sign-in automatically.

Step 3: Add More Connections

Repeat the process for each additional connection. Each one is a separate custom connector. Here are all six endpoint URLs:

Connection	Endpoint URL	What It Covers
Email	https://mcp.porteden.com/email	Gmail and M365 email
Calendar	https://mcp.porteden.com/calendar	Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar
Drive	https://mcp.porteden.com/drive	Google Drive files and folders
Google Docs	https://mcp.porteden.com/google-docs	Search, read, and edit Docs
Google Sheets	https://mcp.porteden.com/google-sheets	Read, write, and append to Sheets
Tasks	https://mcp.porteden.com/tasks	Monday, Linear, Asana, Jira, Notion

Tip

You only need the connections you'll use. Fewer connections means a smaller tool list, which helps Claude stay focused.

Step 4: Verify the Connection

Start a new conversation and try:

Email"Show me my unread emails from today."

Calendar"What meetings do I have this week?"

Drive"Find the Q2 budget spreadsheet."

Tasks"Show me overdue items in the Product board."

Works Everywhere

Connectors added on claude.ai automatically sync to all Claude surfaces:

claude.ai

Claude Desktop

Claude Cowork

Claude Mobile

Managing Permissions

The access token inherits the permissions you've configured at my.porteden.com. You can restrict access to read-only, block contacts or domains, set time windows, or revoke the token at any time.

See Permissions and Access Rules for full details.

Troubleshooting

Claude doesn't see the PortEden tools

Check that the connector appears in Customize > Connectors and shows as connected. Try removing and re-adding it.

"Authentication failed"

Claude will typically re-trigger the OAuth flow automatically. If not, remove the connector and add it again.

"Permission denied"

Go to my.porteden.com and grant the missing permission to your token.
