Channable MCP connector

The Channable connector brings marketplace orders, returns, offers, stock levels and carriers into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and any MCP client, so your team can check and act on them by asking, with every action logged.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

Use cases

What teams do with Channable through Elaichi

Every one of these runs inside the access the person already has, and lands in the same audit log.

  • Ecommerce

    Check this morning's marketplace orders

    Ask which Channable orders came in overnight across your channels, open any one of them by its order number, and see the items, the address and the status without opening Channable.

  • Fulfillment

    Confirm a shipment once the parcel leaves

    When a box is packed, register the shipment in Channable with the carrier and tracking number so the marketplace and the customer are told it is on its way.

  • Customer service

    Start a return and update its status

    When a customer wants to send something back, create the return in Channable, then move it along to received or refunded as it comes through the door.

  • Operations

    Cancel an order you cannot fulfill

    If an item is out of stock or the address is wrong, cancel the Channable order and attach the supporting document so the record explains what happened.

  • Merchandising

    Push stock updates and new offers

    Send updated stock quantities to Channable after a delivery, or add a new offer for a product so it reaches your marketplaces with the right listing details.

  • Finance

    Pull order statistics for the weekly report

    Ask for Channable order statistics across a date range, look up the carriers used on a channel, and summarize order volume without exporting a spreadsheet.

Try asking

  • “Which orders are still unshipped from yesterday?”
  • “List open returns waiting for approval this week.”
  • “Show offers with stock below ten units.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Channable to Claude?

Two steps. First, connect Channable in Elaichi by pasting a Channable API key when asked; there is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the Elaichi endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Sign in as yourself and your Channable orders, returns and offers are ready to ask about.

Does Channable work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Channable is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Channable once and every client you use picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Channable data?

With Channable connected, an agent can list and open your marketplace orders, cancel an order, attach a document to it, and register a shipment with a carrier and tracking number. It can create and update returns, add offers, send stock updates, look up the carriers available on a channel, and pull order statistics for a period. It works from the live Channable records, not a copy you exported last week.

Does connecting Channable give the AI access to every project and order?

No. Every call to Channable runs inside the access of the person who signed in, so the AI sees only the Channable projects and orders that person's API key can reach. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions per action, and it can never widen it beyond what Channable itself allows.

Can my team share one Channable connection?

Yes. One person connects Channable in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the Channable API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person who cancelled an order or updated a return, not a shared account.

Can I stop an agent from cancelling orders or changing returns in Channable?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading Channable orders and statistics while blocking cancellations, shipments, stock updates or return status changes. A blocked action is never shown to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor at all, so no prompt, however worded, can reach it.

What happens to a Channable connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding that person in Elaichi ends their access to Channable at once, across every client they used. If they were part of a shared Channable connection, it keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want Channable gone entirely, disconnect it once in Elaichi and it disappears from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client together.
