Full read-write Claude connector for DoorLoop

Make Claude manage leases and tenants in DoorLoop

Claude answers portfolio questions from live DoorLoop data and handles the follow-through: tasks, charges, and notes. Every ledger posting and record change is held for your approval before it executes.

DoorLoop is property management software covering properties, units, leases, tenants, maintenance tasks, and accounting for landlords and property managers. Teams want Claude to answer portfolio questions, chase down lease and balance details, create tasks, and post charges without digging through DoorLoop screens.

What is a DoorLoop MCP server?

A DoorLoop MCP server is a small hosted service that exposes DoorLoop's data and actions to Claude over the Model Context Protocol, so Claude can operate industry-specific platforms inside your own account. We build it as a custom connector with separate read and write tools, and destructive actions stay gated behind your approval.

What can DoorLoop's current connector do today?

Today, DoorLoop does not ship a first-party Claude or MCP connector, so reaching it from Claude means a custom integration against the DoorLoop API, and hand-wired access tends to stay read-leaning. A purpose-built DoorLoop connector adds scoped write actions like creating tasks and posting lease charges, with separated tools and approval on anything financial.

What does full read-write DoorLoop access unlock?

Full read-write means Claude can pull the rent roll, flag overdue balances, and act on what it finds: creating maintenance tasks, posting lease charges or credits, and drafting tenant notes. Portfolio questions get answered in seconds, and every financial posting waits for your explicit approval first.

  • Pull the rent roll and flag leases with overdue balances
  • Retrieve a tenant's details, lease terms, and payment history
  • Create a maintenance task and assign it to a team member, after you approve
  • Post a lease charge or credit to a tenant ledger, after you approve
  • Draft a note on a tenant or lease record for your review
  • Run a profit and loss or cash flow report for a property

Can Claude pull the rent roll from DoorLoop?

Yes, Claude can run DoorLoop's rent roll and financial reports directly through the API, then do what a report page cannot: answer follow-up questions, flag overdue balances, compare properties, and summarize by portfolio. Profit and loss, cash flow, and balance sheet reports are available the same way, all as read-only tools.

Can Claude create maintenance tasks in DoorLoop?

Yes, Claude can create tasks through the DoorLoop API, set the property and unit, and assign them to a team member. Task creation is a write tool with approval: Claude drafts the task from your description or from a tenant issue it found, you confirm, and it lands in DoorLoop assigned and trackable.

Can Claude post charges to a tenant ledger in DoorLoop?

Yes, Claude can post lease charges and credits, both supported by the DoorLoop API. These are the most tightly gated tools in the connector: Claude shows the lease, amount, account, and memo, and the entry posts only after you approve it. Nothing touches a tenant ledger without a human decision.

How a DoorLoop connector works

We build a small MCP server that talks to the DoorLoop API using an API key generated in your own account, sent as a bearer token, so the connector never exceeds the access your account already has. Read tools like rent roll, lease, and report lookups are separated from write tools like creating tasks and posting charges. Anything that touches a ledger or a tenant record is gated behind your approval. You connect it to Claude once and it works in every conversation.

Frequently asked questions

Does DoorLoop have a Claude or MCP connector?
Not a first-party one. DoorLoop has an open REST API documented at api.doorloop.com covering properties, units, leases, tenants, tasks, and accounting, but there is no official DoorLoop connector in the Claude connector directory today. A custom MCP connector wraps those endpoints as clean tools for Claude, with reads and writes separated and approval gates on every financial or record-changing action.
Can Claude post rent charges or payments in DoorLoop?
Yes, with guardrails. The DoorLoop API supports creating lease charges, credits, and payment records, so the connector can post them, but these are gated write tools. Claude stages the exact ledger entry, amount, account, lease, and memo, and nothing posts until you approve it in the conversation. Read-side tools like balances and payment history run freely, so review is fast and informed.
Is it safe to connect Claude to our DoorLoop portfolio data?
The connector authenticates with an API key from your own DoorLoop account, so it inherits your permissions and nothing beyond them. Read and write tools are built separately, which lets you start read-only and add writes when you are comfortable. Every destructive or financial action requires explicit approval before it executes, and the key lives in server-side configuration, never in the model's context.

Using Claude Code?

The same connector works in the terminal: connect DoorLoop to Claude Code.
