## Steps

1. Sign in to your [dashboard](https://andock.app/dashboard). Your mailbox has to be connected first ([how](https://andock.app/help/connect-your-mailbox)).
2. Click "Add to Claude". Claude opens with the name and address already filled in.
3. Check that it says "Andock" and confirm.
4. Sign in with your Andock account.
5. Ask Claude a first question, for example: "What needs me today?" Your dashboard then shows Claude as "Connected".

This works in the browser at claude.ai and in the desktop app, including Claude Free, which allows one custom connector. In Claude Team and Enterprise, someone with the Owner role adds Andock for everyone. After that, you only click "Connect" next to Andock.

## Didn’t work? Add Andock by hand

1. Sign in to your [dashboard](https://andock.app/dashboard) and copy the Andock address with "Copy". Your mailbox has to be connected first ([how](https://andock.app/help/connect-your-mailbox)).
2. In Claude, open "Customize" › "Connectors".
3. Click "Add", then "Add custom connector". Name it "Andock" and paste the Andock address as the URL.
4. Confirm, click "Connect" next to Andock and sign in with your Andock account.

## If it doesn’t work

- **Claude knows Andock but reads no email.** Check in your [dashboard](https://andock.app/dashboard) that your mailbox is connected. If it says "Login refused", enter your email password again.
- **Claude says something isn’t allowed.** Under [Access](https://andock.app/help/what-andock-can-do) in your dashboard you decide what your AI can do. If the connection says "Blocked", click "Unblock".
