Want to connect Sendcloud to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor? This guide shows how to do it in three steps with the no-code Peliqan MCP server. Once it is set up, your AI assistant can query live Sendcloud data: parcels, labels, orders, shipments, returns, pickups, shipping methods, invoices and sender addresses. There are no exports, no API keys to manage and nothing to install. The full tool list is on the Sendcloud connector page.
What you need before you start
- A Sendcloud account with access to the shops and carriers you want to query
- A Peliqan account (7-day free trial, no card needed)
- Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client that supports custom MCP connectors
How to connect Sendcloud to Claude in three steps
- 1Sign up for Peliqan and connect Sendcloud. Create your Peliqan account with Sendcloud preselected, then connect your Sendcloud account with your own credentials. Peliqan stores the connection on its side and keeps the data in sync, so your AI client never sees your Sendcloud login.
- 2Add Peliqan to Claude. The MCP setup step at the end of the Peliqan onboarding walks you through it. In Claude, open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, paste
https://mcp.peliqan.io/mcpas the server URL, click Add, then log in with your Peliqan account and approve. Claude now sees your Sendcloud tables as tools. - 3Ask Claude about your Sendcloud data. Type a question in plain language. Claude looks up the live figures and answers in the chat. Where writeback is on, it can also create a parcel, a label or a return for you.
Connect Sendcloud to ChatGPT, Cursor or Copilot
The same server works in every MCP client, so you only set up Sendcloud once. In ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini or VS Code with Copilot, add https://mcp.peliqan.io/mcp as a custom MCP server in the client’s connector settings and log in with the same Peliqan account. ChatGPT allows custom MCP servers on its Business and Enterprise plans. As a result, you can switch AI tools, or use several side by side, without touching Sendcloud again.
What your AI can read and write in Sendcloud
The Sendcloud connector gives your AI 13 tables with full history, 5 live lookups and 8 write actions. These are the ones people use most:
| Read (tables and live lookups) | Write (actions) |
|---|---|
| Parcels and parcel labels | Create parcels, one at a time or in bulk |
| Orders, integrations and integration shipments | Create orders and shipments |
| Returns and pickups | Create labels |
| Shipping methods, shipping functionalities, contracts and brands | Create returns |
| Invoices and sender addresses | |
| Live: look up a parcel, a label, a request, recent and search |
The full list is on the Sendcloud connector page. Shipping cost, carrier and delivery timing all sit on the parcel records, so questions about cost per carrier or late deliveries are answered from the full parcel history. Because Peliqan keeps the full history rather than a recent window, you can ask about last year, not just last month.
Example prompts once Sendcloud is connected
- “What was my average shipping cost per parcel last month, by carrier?”
- “Which carrier had the best on-time delivery rate in Germany over the last 90 days?”
- “What is my return rate this month, and which products come back most?”
- “Hoeveel pakketten hebben we deze week naar België verstuurd?”
- “Create a return label for parcel 4827361.”
Writeback is on by default
When you connect Sendcloud, Peliqan enables the write actions as well as the reads. So Claude can create a parcel, a label or a return when you ask it to. If you prefer a read-only setup, switch writeback off for that connection in Peliqan. The switch sits on the connection itself, so you can keep reads on and writes off for one account and the reverse for another. Writes go straight to Sendcloud; the synced copy updates at the next sync, and for the very latest record the AI reads live. Your AI app normally asks you to approve each write before it runs.
About the Sendcloud MCP server
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the open standard that lets AI assistants work with external tools and data. The Peliqan Sendcloud MCP server is a hosted, MCP-compliant endpoint that exposes your Sendcloud data to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini and any other MCP client. You install nothing and maintain nothing. Peliqan holds the Sendcloud connection; your AI client logs in to Peliqan, not to Sendcloud.
