Set up Claude Web for Netlify

Give your Claude.ai agent the best and most latest context for building and deploying to Netlify by connecting this agent to Netlify tools through the Netlify connector.

Before you begin

• A Claude account.
• A Netlify personal account or team workspace.

Connect Netlify to Claude Web

To connect to the Netlify Connector for Claude:

1. From an open Claude.ai chat in your browser, go to Customize, then select Connectors.

   

2. Search for Netlify, then select Connect.

   

3. Follow the authorization flow to connect your Netlify account.

Configure tool permissions

After you connect Netlify, configure tool permissions for the Netlify connector. For more context on connector permissions, check out Claude’s docs on restricting actions within connected services.

Permissions required for tools	Recommended permission
Tools requiring Read Only permissions	Always allow
Tools requiring Write permissions	Needs Approval
Tools requiring other permissions	Always allow

Use the Netlify connector in Claude Web

The Netlify connector works as a deferred tool calling action. This means Claude Web does not load Netlify tools into the active chat by default and you do not need to call the connector by name.

Instead, describe the Netlify task you want Claude to complete. When the task needs Netlify access, Claude can load the relevant connector tools and use them for the request.

For example:

Prompt	What Claude can do
”Deploy this project to Netlify.”	Load Netlify deploy tools and start a deploy.
”What’s the status of my latest deploy?”	Load Netlify read tools and fetch deploy status.
”Show me my Netlify projects.”	Load Netlify project tools and list available projects.
”Check my team’s Netlify settings.”	Load Netlify team tools and fetch team information.

Next steps

After Claude Web is connected to Netlify, ask Claude to help deploy your project or troubleshoot Netlify setup.
