## Interactive Apps

The Claude Connector supports **Interactive Apps**—live visualizations rendered directly in your conversation instead of text descriptions.

### What You'll See

When you ask about trends, metrics, or comparisons, Claude can display:

| Visualization | Use Case                                     |
| ------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| Line charts   | Trends over time (mention rate, citations)   |
| Bar charts    | Comparisons (competitors, providers, topics) |
| KPI cards     | Current metrics with period changes          |
| Data tables   | Pages, prompts, citations                    |

### Example

```
You: "How is Gong performing in AI search over the last 2 months?"
Claude: [Displays trend chart showing mention rate growth]
        Your mention rate doubled from 9% to 18%...
```

### Using Interactive Apps

* **View inline** — Charts appear directly in the conversation
* **Expand** — Click to see larger, detailed views
* **Interact** — Hover for data points, filter, drill down
* **Refine** — Ask Claude to adjust ("Show just the last 30 days")

You don't need to enable anything—visualizations appear automatically when relevant.

### Troubleshooting Visualizations

If charts aren't appearing:

1. **Check your app** — Interactive Apps work on web and desktop only
2. **Check your plan** — Requires Claude Pro, Team, or Enterprise
3. **Check connection** — Verify AirOps is connected in Settings → Connectors
4. **Be explicit** — Try "Show me a chart of my mention rate trend"

## Connecting

### From Chat

1. Click **"Search and tools"** (lower left)
2. Select **"Add connectors"**
3. Search for **"AirOps"**
4. Click **Connect**
5. Sign in with your AirOps account

### From Settings

1. Go to **Settings → Connectors**
2. Click **"Browse connectors"**
3. Search for **"AirOps"**
4. Click **Connect**
5. Sign in with your AirOps account

## Managing Your Connection

### Check Status

Go to **Settings → Connectors**. AirOps should show as "Connected."

Test by asking: "What Brand Kits do I have access to in AirOps?"

### Reconnect

If Claude says "needs authentication":

1. Go to **Settings → Connectors**
2. Find AirOps
3. Click **Reconnect**
4. Complete the OAuth sign-in

### Disconnect

1. Go to **Settings → Connectors**
2. Find AirOps
3. Click **Disconnect**

If you're having connection issues, disconnect and reconnect to clear cached authentication.

## Claude Connector vs MCP

| Feature          | Claude Connector     | MCP                          |
| ---------------- | -------------------- | ---------------------------- |
| Setup            | One-click            | Manual configuration         |
| Interactive Apps | Yes                  | Depends on client            |
| Authentication   | Automatic            | Manual OAuth                 |
| Best for         | Claude Web & Desktop | Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code |

Under the hood, the Claude Connector uses the same MCP server (`https://app.airops.com/mcp`). It's a streamlined setup with additional features for Claude.
