Add the Make MCP server to Claude Code

Config last verified Jun 1, 2026

The exact config to run Make in Claude Code — paste it in, restart, and the tools load.

Prerequisites

  • Claude Code installed.
  • MAKE_MCP_TOKEN — Make MCP token generated in your Make profile with the mcp:use scope. Sent as a Bearer Authorization header, or embedded in a zone-specific URL like https://<zone>.make.com/mcp/api/v1/u/<MCP_TOKEN>/sse. Required.

Setup

1. Open ~/.claude.json

2. Add this configuration

Add to ~/.claude.json

~/.claude.json
json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "make": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.make.com/mcp/api/v1/sse",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <MAKE_MCP_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}
Or via CLI
bash
claude mcp add --transport http make https://mcp.make.com/mcp/api/v1/sse

3. Restart Claude Code and confirm the Make tools load.

Gotchas

Claude Code stores MCP servers under an "mcpServers" object in ~/.claude.json. It also reads a project-scoped .mcp.json and supports adding servers from the command line with "claude mcp add". Each entry must declare either a "type" or a "command"; Claude Code refuses an entry that has neither. Remote servers connect natively over Streamable HTTP with OAuth.
