Connect RoyLead to Claude and Perplexity (MCP)

What you can do once connected

• Domains: create a domain, get the TXT record, verify DNS, manage settings.
• Landing pages: create them, link them to a domain and to an offer.
• Leads: read your leads (team owners/admins see the whole team's, operators see only their own).
• Ad campaigns: read accounts, ad sets, ROI and Meta insights.
• AI creatives: generate images, browse the gallery and presets.
• Feed: read community posts and comments.
• Profile and team: read and update settings (name, language, notifications, team settings if you're an owner/admin).

💡 Sensitive actions stay out of the chat for safety: password/email changes, 2FA, billing/payments, deleting a team and removing members are only done from the dashboard.

Option A — Claude.ai (browser, app, phone)

On Claude.ai you connect with a secure login: no key to paste.

Step 1 — Open Connectors

On claude.ai go to Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector from the Add menu at the top right.

Step 2 — Paste RoyLead's address

As the MCP server URL, enter:

https://api.roylead.com/api/v1/mcp

The name is up to you (e.g. "RoyLead"); the advanced settings (OAuth Client ID / Secret) stay empty. Confirm to add the connector.

Step 3 — Authorize access

Claude will open RoyLead's page: sign in with your account (if you haven't already) and you'll see a consent screen telling you which application is requesting access and where it will be redirected. Check the address is Claude's, then click Authorize.

Done: the connector shows as connected and you can start asking Claude to work on RoyLead.

💡 You can revoke access anytime by removing the connector in Claude.ai. Each authorized session is independent.

Option B — Claude Code / Claude Desktop (on your computer)

Here the connection uses a dedicated API Key with the "MCP" scope.

Step 1 — Create the key in RoyLead

Go to Settings → API and create a new key with the MCP scope.

Go to API Settings ↗

Give it a recognizable name (e.g. "Claude Code laptop") and copy the key (rl_...). You can also reveal it again later with the eye icon.

💡 Use an MCP-scoped key, not the WordPress plugin one: they're deliberately separate, so if one is compromised the other stays safe.

Step 2a — Claude Code (terminal)

In a terminal, run (replace the key with yours):

claude mcp add roylead --scope user --transport http https://api.roylead.com/api/v1/mcp --header "x-api-key: rl_YOUR_KEY"

--scope user makes the connection available in any folder. Then restart Claude Code (MCP servers load at startup) and verify with:

claude mcp list

roylead should appear as connected.

Step 2b — Claude Desktop

Alternatively, in Claude Desktop's MCP configuration add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "roylead": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.roylead.com/api/v1/mcp",
      "headers": { "x-api-key": "rl_YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Save and restart Claude Desktop.

💡 To remove access later, revoke the key from Settings → API: the connection stops working instantly, without touching your other keys.

Option C — Perplexity

Perplexity also connects with an API Key, from its connectors panel.

Step 1 — Create the key in RoyLead

Go to Settings → API and create a new key with the MCP scope, dedicated to Perplexity (e.g. named "Perplexity").

Go to API Settings ↗

Copy the key (rl_...).

💡 If you already have a key for Claude Code, don't reuse it: create a new one. That way you can revoke Perplexity without disconnecting Claude (and vice versa).

Step 2 — Add the connector in Perplexity

In Perplexity go to Settings → Connectors and choose Custom connector (type Remote). Fill it in like this:

• Name: RoyLead (up to you)
• MCP server URL: https://api.roylead.com/api/v1/mcp
• Authentication: API Key → paste your rl_... key
• Transport: HTTP (Streamable HTTP)

Confirm and enable the connector: from that moment Perplexity operates on RoyLead with your permissions.

💡 To disconnect Perplexity, revoke its key from Settings → API: it stops working instantly.

Test that it works

Open a new chat with your assistant and try asking:

• "What domains do I have on RoyLead?"
• "Read me the guide on connecting a domain."
• "How many leads did I get this week?"

If it answers with your data, the connection is live.

Troubleshooting

If the connection won't start after checking the URL and key, contact support and mention where you're connecting from (Claude.ai, Claude Code, Claude Desktop or Perplexity).
