Questions, answered

How do I connect Iru (formerly Kandji) to Claude?

Connect Iru (formerly Kandji) in Elaichi first, which asks you to paste an API key from your Iru settings. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Claude will ask you to sign in to Elaichi as yourself, and your Iru devices, users and blueprints are available from then on.

Does Iru (formerly Kandji) work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

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

What can an AI agent actually do with my Iru (formerly Kandji) data?

An agent connected to Iru (formerly Kandji) can list your enrolled devices, open a single device and report who it is assigned to and when it last checked in, and show which apps and library items are on it. It can read your blueprints, look up users, update device details such as asset tag or assigned user, and remove a device or user record when you ask it to. It cannot do anything in Iru that you could not do yourself.

Does connecting Iru (formerly Kandji) give the AI access to my whole device fleet?

No. Every call to Iru (formerly Kandji) runs inside the access of the person who signed in, so the AI sees the devices, users and blueprints that person's Iru permissions allow and nothing more. Elaichi can narrow that further by restricting actions like deleting devices, but it can never grant more than the person already has in Iru.

Can my team share one Iru (formerly Kandji) connection?

Yes. One administrator connects Iru (formerly Kandji) with the API key and shares the connection with a team in Elaichi, and nobody else ever sees or handles that key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person who looked up a device or updated a user, not a shared account.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Iru (formerly Kandji)?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can allow reading Iru (formerly Kandji) devices, apps and blueprints while restricting updates and deletions of devices or users. A restricted action still appears in Elaichi's tool search, flagged as restricted, but Claude, ChatGPT or any other client cannot run it, whatever the prompt says.

What happens to an Iru (formerly Kandji) connection when someone leaves?

When you offboard a person in Elaichi, their access to Iru (formerly Kandji) through every AI client ends at once. If they had shared an Iru connection with a team, it keeps working for everyone else. If you want Iru gone entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot and every other client at the same time.

Does the Iru (formerly Kandji) MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Iru (formerly Kandji) is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Iru (formerly Kandji)?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Iru (formerly Kandji). Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Iru (formerly Kandji) call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Iru (formerly Kandji)?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Iru (formerly Kandji): one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
