Connect Buildium to Claude Code

Make Claude log work orders and update records in Buildium. From the terminal, inside the sessions where you already work.

How do you connect Buildium to Claude Code?

Claude Code reaches outside tools through MCP servers. To connect Buildium, you add a Buildium MCP server: a small hosted service that exposes Buildium'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 Buildium account. No API keys pasted into config files.

claude mcp add --transport http buildium 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 Buildium once connected?

Full read-write Buildium access lets Claude create and update work orders, draft tenant and owner messages, record lease and contact changes, and add notes or tasks against the right unit, once you approve. The follow-up and data entry that used to mean switching tabs happen where the property record already lives.

  • Create a maintenance work order against a unit from a tenant request
  • Draft a message to a tenant or owner inside the right property record
  • Update a contact, lease, or tenant detail you confirm is changing
  • Add a task or note to a property, unit, or work order for follow-up
  • Find every open work order matching a filter and propose next steps
  • Record a vendor or owner detail change after you review it

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 Buildium 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 Buildium API. The protocol is open. What you take on is everything around the happy path: OAuth token refresh, hosting, monitoring, keeping up when Buildium 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 Buildium 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 Buildium 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 Buildium 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 Buildium'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 Buildium?
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 Buildium account it signs in with. Revoking access is one click in Buildium.
