Enterprise-Managed Auth for MCP Connectors (Generally Available)

Admins on Claude Team and Enterprise can switch on connected tools for the whole organization through their identity provider, so nobody has to authorize each tool themselves.

Details

  • Admins connect their identity provider to Claude and pick which connectors to switch on, and people find those connectors already set up the first time they log in
  • Connector access follows the groups and roles defined in the identity provider, and stays the same across Claude chat, Claude Code, and Cowork
  • Replaces a two-step setup where an admin enabled a connector for the organization and then every person had to authorize it individually
  • Admins can require connections to come through the identity provider only, which keeps work accounts separate from personal ones
  • Okta is the supported identity provider, and supported connectors include Asana, Atlassian, Canva, Datadog, Figma, Granola, Linear, Notion, Slack, and Supabase
  • Developers can add the same centralized authorization to their own third-party MCP connectors
  • Available on Claude Team and Enterprise plans

Best for

rolling connected tools like Slack, Notion, or Linear out across a whole team without chasing individual sign-ins

When to use it

your organization already runs Okta and you want tool access to follow the groups and roles set up there

Who benefits

IT and workspace admins on Claude Team and Enterprise, plus the people on those teams who stop hitting authorization prompts
