# How do I connect the Claude app?

First check whether your current app and organization policy support a remote MCP connection with the fixed credential header CloseMagnet requires. Connector forms and available authentication options vary; an OAuth-only form cannot substitute a Client ID or Client Secret for this token header.

Use [Connect an AI Agent](https://docs.closemagnet.com/connect-an-agent) for the current CloseMagnet endpoint and verification requirements. If the required header cannot be supplied in your version, use a compatible client such as the documented Claude Code path rather than putting a credential in the URL.
