# Connect to Claude

> Set up the Ryze connector in Claude and verify it works

This connects Ryze to Claude so you can list accounts, pull reports, and make changes from chat. It takes about 30 seconds.

<Note>
  Use **Claude Desktop** for the most reliable connection. The web version (claude.ai) works too, but it can time out on slower connections — if something stalls, switch to Desktop.
</Note>

## Step 1 — Generate your connection key

In your Ryze dashboard, open the **Ryze MCP (Claude Connector)** section at [app.get-ryze.ai/integrations](https://app.get-ryze.ai/integrations). Under **Connection keys**, name the key (e.g. "Claude Desktop"), click **Generate Key**, and copy it.

You can also test it in chat — ask Claude:

> list my ad accounts

If it returns your accounts, you're done. If it stalls, see the [FAQ](/connect/faq).
