How to Connect Claude to Your HostArmada Account

Introduction

Connecting Claude to your HostArmada account takes about five minutes and needs no technical skills. Once it's connected, you can ask Claude about your invoices, hosting services, domains, and support tickets in plain language, and approve every change before it happens.

Before you start

You need three things:

  • An active HostArmada service. The MCP server is free with any active hosting plan.
  • A Claude account. Custom connectors work on every Claude plan. On the Free plan, you can add one custom connector.
  • The HostArmada server URL: https://mcp.hostarmada.com/. You'll also find it, with a Copy button, in your HostArmada client area under Tools > MCP Server.

Set up the connector in Claude’s web version or in the Claude desktop app. Once it's added, it also works in the Claude mobile app.

On a Claude Team or Enterprise plan? Only an organization Owner can add a custom connector. See “Team and Enterprise plans” section below.

Step 1: Add the HostArmada connector to Claude

  1. Open Claude and sign in.
  2. Go to Customize, then Connectors.



  3. Click + (Add), then Add custom connector.



  4. In the dialog, enter the click Continue:
  5. If Claude asks how people should connect, choose Sign in now. Leave the other settings as they are.



  6. Scroll down and click Add.


The HostArmada connector now appears in your connector list.

Step 2: Sign in with your HostArmada account

  1. Next to the HostArmada connector in your connector list, click Connect. On some accounts, the sign-in page opens right after you click Add.



  2. You’ll be headed to the HostArmada log-in page. Enter your email and password and click the Log in button.



  3. Review the access Claude is requesting, then click Allow access to approve it.



  4. You’ll be redirected back to Claude, where the HostArmada connector will appear as connected.

Note: Claude never sees your HostArmada password. You sign in on HostArmada's own page.

Step 3: Turn it on in a chat and try it

  1. Start a new chat in Claude.
  2. Click the + button in the message box, then select Connectors. Make sure that the HostArmada connector is switched on.



  3. Send your first request. You can try the following prompt: “Give me an overview of my HostArmada account.”
  4. Click Always allow.

Claude replies with your profile, credit balance, active services and domains, unpaid or overdue invoices, and open tickets. Nothing in your account changes. This is a good check that the connection works.

Team and Enterprise plans

For Claude Team and Enterprise plans, an organization Owner only needs to add the HostArmada connector once to make it available to all team members.

Add the connector (Organization Owner)

  1. Go to Organization settings > Connectors in Claude.
  2. Click Add, then select Custom. If prompted to choose a connector type, select Web.
  3. Enter https://mcp.hostarmada.com/ as the server URL and click Add.

Connect individual HostArmada accounts (Team Members)

Once the connector is added, each team member can connect their own HostArmada account:

  1. Go to Customize > Connectors in Claude.
  2. Find the HostArmada connector labeled Custom.
  3. Click Connect and sign in with your HostArmada account.

Note: Each team member connects independently and can only access and manage the HostArmada account they sign in with.

Disconnecting

To turn off the HostArmada connector in a single chat, switch it off under + > Connectors.

To remove it completely, go to Customize > Connectors. Go to Yours and click on the HostArmada connector.


Use the three-dot menu and click Remove.


You can add it again at any time using the same setup process outlined above.

Troubleshooting

Problem

What to do

I can't find Add custom connector

On a Team or Enterprise plan, only an Owner can add it. Ask your Owner to follow the “Team and Enterprise plans” section outlined above.

Claude says I've reached my custom connector limit

The Free plan allows one custom connector. Remove one you don't use, or upgrade your Claude plan.

Claude doesn't use my HostArmada account

Check that the HostArmada connector is switched on under + > Connectors in that chat.

The sign-in page won't load or keeps failing

Check that the URL is exactly https://mcp.hostarmada.com/. Remove the connector, add it again, and sign in with the account owner's login.

Claude can't find another customer's account or domain

That's by design. The connector only works with the account you signed in with.

Claude says I've hit a limit

Wait a moment and try again. You can make up to 60 requests per minute, and up to 5 domain lookups per minute (60 per hour). Opening and replying to tickets have their own limits.
