How do you connect Bill.com to Claude Code?

Claude Code reaches outside tools through MCP servers. To connect Bill.com, you add a Bill.com MCP server: a small hosted service that exposes Bill.com's data and actions over the Model Context Protocol. With a custom connector we build for you, that is one command in the terminal, then an OAuth sign-in with your own Bill.com account. No API keys pasted into config files.

claude mcp add --transport http bill-com https://your-connector-url/mcp

Then run /mcp inside a Claude Code session to sign in. Add it with --scope project and the connector is checked into the repo for your whole team.

What can Claude Code do in Bill.com once connected?

Full read-write Bill.com access lets Claude draft a bill from a vendor and line items, create or update vendor records, route a bill into the right approval workflow, draft a customer invoice, and queue a payment, then approve and pay once you confirm. The AP and AR work that used to mean re-keying happens where your payables already live.

Draft a vendor bill with line items, GL coding, and a due date for your review
Create or update a vendor or customer record and its remit details
Route a bill into the right approval workflow and notify approvers
Draft a customer invoice and send it after you approve
Queue a payment against an approved bill, released only after you confirm
Match an incoming invoice document to an open bill or purchase record

One connector, every Claude surface

The connector we build is a remote MCP server, which is the same standard claude.ai and Claude Desktop use. Add it once and the same Bill.com access works in Claude Code for you, in claude.ai for the rest of the team, and in Claude Desktop. One build, one set of permissions, one monthly plan covering all of them.

Build it yourself, or have it built?

If you live in the terminal, you can absolutely write your own MCP server against the Bill.com API. The protocol is open. What you take on is everything around the happy path: OAuth token refresh, hosting, monitoring, keeping up when Bill.com changes its API and when the MCP spec itself moves, and scoping write actions so an agent can never do more than you intended. We build Bill.com connectors with separated read and write tools and approval gates on destructive actions, then host and maintain them so they keep working while you work.

Frequently asked questions

Does the same Bill.com connector work in claude.ai and Claude Code?

Yes. It is one remote MCP server. Claude Code adds it with a single "claude mcp add" command; claude.ai and Claude Desktop add it as a custom connector in Settings. Each person signs in with their own Bill.com account, so access always matches what that person can already see and do.

Do I need to host or maintain anything myself?

No. The connector runs as a hosted service we operate: we handle uptime, token health, API changes on Bill.com's side, and MCP spec migrations under the monthly plan. Your side is one command in the terminal and an OAuth sign-in.

Is it safe to give a coding agent write access to Bill.com?

Write access is scoped, not blanket. Read tools and write tools are separated, destructive actions like deleting or sending are gated behind your explicit approval, and the connector can never exceed the permissions of the Bill.com account it signs in with. Revoking access is one click in Bill.com.
