What changes for your sales team
Lightfield is a CRM, the tool where your team keeps accounts, contacts and deals. With the connector, you stop clicking through views to answer a quick question about the pipeline. You ask Claude in plain words, it reads the records it needs and replies in the chat, and it can also log what you just learned.
Answer pipeline questions on the spot. read_from_lightfield reads data from your workspace. Lightfield's directory text mentions accounts, contacts, opportunities, notes, tasks and lists, with filters on any field.
Log a call without opening the CRM. write_to_lightfield creates or updates records, so the note from this morning's demo or a new contact lands where your team expects it.
Let Claude check how Lightfield is built. search_lightfield_api_docs and get_lightfield_api_details browse the API reference, and get_current_user tells Claude who you are and which role you hold.
What the connector does not do matters as much. No source describes deleting a record: the writing tool creates and updates, nothing more. Nothing runs on its own either: a deal changing stage does not wake Claude up. And on an organization account, a Claude admin has to add Lightfield before anyone can connect. If you want a broader view of CRM connectors, the Integrations hub lists them.
The vocabulary in one minute
Five words you will see while setting it up.
- Connector
- The link you set up once between Claude and an account you already use, so Claude can work in it while it answers you.
- Tool
- A named action the connector opens to Claude. Claude decides which ones to call; the directory lists all of them by name.
- Authorization
- Lightfield's own sign-in screen, where you hand Claude the access it will use. Granted once per person, and you can withdraw it.
- Approval
- The confirmation Claude waits for before it completes a change to your account, shown in the chat at the moment it matters.
- MCP
- The common standard behind connectors: it is how an assistant like Claude talks to an outside service such as your CRM.
Connect Lightfield to Claude in three steps
- 01
Open the connector list
In Claude's settings, open Customize, then Connectors, and look for Lightfield. On a Team or Enterprise workspace, an Owner or Primary Owner enables a connector for the organization before members can connect individually.
- 02
Start the connection
Click Connect on its row, then sign in to Lightfield in the window Lightfield opens. If the link breaks later, Disconnect and connect again from the same place.
- 03
Review the authorization
Read the authorization screen before you accept. It is Lightfield's screen, not Claude's, and it decides what the access covers. The access can also be withdrawn later from the service side.
The 5 tools, sorted by what they do
Lightfield gives Claude 5 tools: 4 that read your account, 1 that change something in it.
Four that read and one that writes. Names stay in English, as Claude shows them.
- 4 read
- 1 write
What Claude reads (4)
4 toolsFour tools that look at your identity, your data or the API reference without changing anything.
get_current_user
Tells Claude who is connected: your name, your email and your role in Lightfield.
get_lightfield_api_details
Opens the detailed documentation of one specific endpoint of the Lightfield API, the next step after browsing the list of endpoints.
read_from_lightfield
Reads data from your Lightfield workspace and brings it into the conversation, whether that is a single account, a list of contacts or the deals sitting at one stage.
search_lightfield_api_docs
Browses the endpoints and resources the Lightfield API offers, the catalogue of what can be reached.
What Claude changes (1)
1 toolOne tool that touches your records. No source describes a confirmation for it, so the general rule below applies.
write_to_lightfield
Approval: see the ruleCreates new records or updates existing ones in your workspace, for example a contact met at an event or the next step on an opportunity.
What Claude asks before it acts
By default, Claude stops and asks before any action it takes on an account for you. In practice, that rule matters most for the one tool that writes to your CRM.
On a Team or Enterprise workspace, owners decide whether a member can let some actions through without being asked each time. They can also bound what a connector may do for the whole organization, such as keeping reads and closing writes, and no one bypasses that from their own account. Claude works with your Lightfield access and nothing more: what your role cannot see, Claude cannot see either. The official read-only versus write labels per tool live only in a connected account's settings.
Which plans it is on
Of the 819 sheets in the official directory, none displays availability per plan. That answer is not published anywhere, connector by connector.
The general rule is published: remote connectors are open to all users on Claude, Cowork, Claude Desktop and mobile. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner enables a connector for the organization before members can connect. Lightfield's own setup page says something more specific, set against this rule in the limits section. For the current state, check the connector's sheet in the official directory from your account.
Where this connector stops
A connector is not an automation. Claude calls these tools while it answers you: nothing starts by itself when a deal moves stage or a task comes due.
The tool list is an observed floor, not a ceiling: an administrator could open more than any public page shows. The partner badge in the directory is not a security audit, and Anthropic writes on every sheet that it neither chooses the tools a publisher exposes nor guarantees they behave as announced. Only Lightfield documents this connector; Claude's help center has no page on it, and Lightfield's setup page is undated.
Which Claude accounts can connect Lightfield?
- Claude help center, general connector rule ↗September 2026Remote connectors are open to all users; on Team and Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner enables each one first.
- Lightfield MCP quickstart ↗undatedThe publisher describes an individual setup for personal accounts, naming Free, Pro or Max, and an organization setup that requires an org admin.
What this page followsNeither side is outdated: Anthropic's rule covers every connector, and Lightfield's page is the only text about this one, but it is the publisher speaking and its page carries no date. Check the connector's sheet in the directory from your own account before relying on either.
