Claude Interactive Connectors

Interactive connectors are a Claude feature that brings the interface of connected third-party tools into the Claude app. They were first launched earlier in 2026 as small live views inside a conversation. The update described here lets a supporting tool open beside the chat or in full screen, with Claude able to make changes directly to an open page, row or file.

Users approve Claude's actions in the same way as for other connector actions, and changes appear in the tool as they are made. For tools such as Confluence or Notion, the full editor opens, signed into the user's own account, rather than a limited preview. Tools can also be opened directly without a prompt, and pinned to the sidebar and the + menu.

Launch tools named by Anthropic include Asana, Canva, Carta, Dropbox, monday.com, Smartsheet, Vercel and Webflow. Examples include Adobe (photo and PDF editing), Atlassian Confluence, Box, HubSpot and Notion. Figma, Harvey and Shopify are building integrations. The feature runs on MCP Apps, an open extension to the Model Context Protocol, so apps are not limited to Claude. Support for app tools and embedded sites is in public preview for developers.

It is rolling out on web and the Claude desktop app on all plans, as part of the new Claude experience that combines chat and Cowork. Availability depends on the account being updated, or the organization enabling it. Admins can restrict a connector's tools as they do today. Support depends on each connector.
