This guide shows you how to add Genea MCP as a custom connector in Claude Cowork.
Video walkthrough: Watch on Loom
Before you start
An admin has to enable Genea MCP for your organization and allow your role to connect. See the Genea MCP guide for how.
Each person connects Genea MCP for themselves.
If you have access to more than one Genea account, double check which one you sign in to.
Step 1: Open the Connectors Library
In Claude Cowork, go to the Connectors Library. This is where you add a custom connector for Genea MCP.
Step 2: Add a custom connector
Click Add a Connector.
Select Add Custom Connector.
Give the connector a clear name, such as Genea Production.
Step 3: Find the MCP URL in Genea
Open your Genea account.
Go to Integrations, then Roll your own.
Find Genea MCP.
If it is not enabled yet, an admin needs to turn it on first.
If you are not an admin, you can use the MCP URL listed in the Genea MCP guide instead.
Step 4: Copy and paste the MCP URL
Copy the MCP URL from Genea.
Paste it into the custom connector setup in Claude Cowork.
Click Add.
Step 5: Sign in
Claude Cowork will ask you to sign in.
Make sure you connect the correct Genea account.
Complete the sign-in flow.
Step 6: Confirm the connector is connected
Once sign-in finishes, your Genea account is connected to Claude Cowork and ready to use.
