# Use Firecrawl MCP in Claude

> Connect Claude web and Desktop to Firecrawl with OAuth

Add Firecrawl's web search and research capabilities to Claude with a remote connector.

<Warning>
  The account endpoint in this guide is not live yet and currently returns
  `404`. Until the rollout completes, keep existing Firecrawl connectors on
  `https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp`; do not configure `/v2/mcp-oauth` yet.
</Warning>

<Note>
  Looking for a coding-agent setup? See the [Claude Code
  guide](/quickstarts/claude-code).
</Note>

## Choose the right setup

### Firecrawl in the Connector Directory

If **Firecrawl** appears under **Customize > Connectors**, select it and click **Connect**. Complete the Firecrawl sign-in and authorization flow when prompted. See [Anthropic's connector guide](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/11176164-use-connectors-to-extend-claude-s-capabilities) for the current directory flow.

This is the normal end-user path for an approved directory connector. Firecrawl's directory profile provides its reviewed search and research tool set. You do not need to add a custom connector.

### Individual custom connector

Use a custom account connector when you need Firecrawl's full hosted MCP tool set rather than the focused directory profile.

For an individual Claude account:

1. Open **Customize > Connectors**.
2. Click **+**, then select **Add custom connector**.
3. Enter `https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp-oauth` as the remote MCP URL.
4. Leave the OAuth Client ID and Client Secret blank under Advanced settings.
5. Click **Add**, then **Connect**. Sign in to Firecrawl, choose the team to use, and approve access.

Claude supplies its public-client metadata automatically. Do not create or paste an OAuth client ID or secret.

### Team and Enterprise custom connector

An Owner or Primary Owner first adds the connector for the organization:

1. Open **Organization settings > Connectors**.
2. Select **Add > Custom > Web**.
3. Enter `https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp-oauth` and leave the optional OAuth credentials blank.
4. Finish adding the connector.

Each member then opens **Customize > Connectors**, finds the connector marked **Custom**, and clicks **Connect** to authorize their own Firecrawl account.

See [Anthropic's current remote connector guide](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/11175166-get-started-with-custom-connectors-using-remote-mcp) for current availability and UI details.

## Use Firecrawl in a conversation

Enable Firecrawl from the **+ > Connectors** menu, then try:

```text theme={null}
Search for the latest Next.js features
```

With the full custom account connector, you can also try:

```text theme={null}
Scrape firecrawl.dev and explain what it does
```

```text theme={null}
Find and scrape the Stripe API documentation for payment intents
```
