Decisions Connector for Claude

The Decisions™ connector for Claude lets you ask Claude about your Microsoft 365 meetings. Claude answers from your agendas, AI Recaps, decisions, action items and meeting files. It can also build agendas and log decisions for you. Connect it once from the Claude connector directory and sign in with your Microsoft 365 work account.

What is the Decisions connector for Claude?

The Decisions connector is a remote MCP server, run by Decisions. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard for connecting AI assistants to business systems. The connector gives Claude secure, permission-aware access to the meeting content your team manages with Decisions on Microsoft 365 and Teams. It works on your behalf, with the access you already have.

A calendar only knows when meetings happen. Decisions knows what happened in them, and Claude's answers come from that record. Once connected, Claude can:

Find your meetings. Search upcoming and past meetings on your Microsoft 365 calendar in your own words. You don't need the exact meeting title.
Read agendas and recaps. Published agendas, AI Recap summaries, key takeaways and AI Minutes.
Report decisions and tasks. Decisions from your team's decision log, and action items from AI Recaps and your team's task list.
Find meeting files. Decks, notes and recordings across SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams.
Show the Meeting Engagement Score. The overall score, agenda quality and team engagement for a meeting.
Build and manage agendas. Create an agenda, add or update items, reorder them, and publish the agenda. Attendees who aren't organizers can suggest items for the organizer to approve.
Log decisions. Add a decision to your team's decision log, or update one that is already there.

What you can ask Claude once connected

Type naturally. Claude picks the right Decisions tools for you. Meeting search understands approximate meeting names, people and dates, so "the budget meeting a few weeks back" finds the right meeting.

Ask what was decided:

"What did we decide in yesterday's leadership sync?"
"List the decisions we've logged in the steering committee this year."
"Which action items are still open from our product syncs?"

Get recaps and prepare:

"Recap last week's leadership meetings and pull out the action items assigned to me."
"What's on the agenda for tomorrow's leadership team meeting? Draft my talking points."
"What was the engagement score for last week's project sync?"

Find meeting files:

"Show me the deck from last week's all-hands."
"Any recordings of the sales kickoff?"

Build the agenda:

"Create an agenda for Monday's management meeting with a welcome, the Q3 hiring plan and next steps."
"Move the budget item to the top of Thursday's agenda, then publish it."
"Suggest an agenda item about data privacy for the next steering meeting."

Log decisions:

"Log a decision in today's project sync: we launch the pilot on 1 December."
"Update the hiring decision from last week's leadership meeting to say it's approved."

Before you connect: what your admin needs to switch on

A Decisions admin checks three things in the Decisions Admin portal:

MCP access is on. Go to Decisions AI → Connectors and turn on the MCP access toggle. It covers your whole organization, and each person still chooses whether to connect. It starts on for new organizations. If your organization used Decisions before connectors arrived, it starts off.
AI features are on. Go to Company → Permissions and check that Disable AI Features is unticked.
Decisions is connected to Microsoft 365. On the same Company → Permissions page, Connect to Microsoft 365 should show Connected. If it doesn't, a Microsoft 365 admin selects Re-Consent there, or uses app.boarddecisions.com/web/#/admin-consent.

On Claude Team and Enterprise plans, a Claude Owner must also enable connectors for your organization.

How to connect Decisions to Claude

Connecting takes about a minute:

In Claude, open Settings → Connectors.
Find Decisions in the Claude connector directory and select Connect.
A sign-in window opens. Sign in with your Microsoft 365 work account, the same one you use for Teams and Outlook.
Approve the requested permissions. Then start a new conversation and ask Claude about your meetings.

To disconnect at any time, go back to Settings → Connectors and select Disconnect on the Decisions connector.

What Claude can change, and who can change it

Decisions applies the same rules as in Decisions itself:

Agendas: organizers and meeting admins can create an agenda, add, update and reorder items, and publish it. Other attendees can suggest items for the organizer to review and approve.
Decisions: logging or updating a decision needs three things. Your Decisions plan includes the decision log, your team has one, and it uses the standard format. Teams using voting or RAPID can still read their decisions through Claude, but can't log them.

Before Claude adds, updates or publishes agenda items, Decisions asks it to confirm the change with you. Claude's own settings also control whether it asks before using a connector tool.

Recaps, minutes, action items and files are read-only through the connector.

Requirements

A Decisions account on your Microsoft 365 organization. Decisions is free to get started: try Decisions in Microsoft Teams.
Meeting content managed with Decisions. Answers come from agendas, AI Recap, AI Minutes, the decision log and tasks. See Setting up Decisions AI.

The admin settings above, and a Claude plan that supports connectors (see the FAQ), complete the list.

Security and data handling: what IT admins should know

Decisions reads your meeting content live from your organization's Microsoft 365 when you ask, and doesn't store or index a copy. The answer goes to Claude, under your own sign-in. Agendas live in OneDrive and SharePoint, decisions in SharePoint lists, and tasks in Microsoft Planner.

Delegated permissions only. The connector acts with the signed-in person's own Microsoft 365 identity. Nobody can see or change anything through Claude that they couldn't already access in Microsoft 365 and Decisions. See Decisions + Microsoft Graph permissions explained.
Scoped write access. Changes are limited to agendas and the decision log. Decisions checks the person's rights before making any change.
OAuth 2.0 sign-in. Sign-in uses standard OAuth. No passwords or API keys are shared with Claude or Anthropic.
Admin control. A Decisions admin can switch off the MCP access toggle at any time under Decisions AI → Connectors, which disconnects the whole organization.

For a deeper technical view, see our Architecture and security overview. Certifications, subprocessors and compliance documentation are in the Decisions Trust Center, and our privacy policy covers data collection, retention and deletion.

Known limitations

Decisions content only. Meetings without a published Decisions agenda, recap or minutes return calendar details but no meeting content.
Word-format minutes open as links. Claude reads OneNote and PDF minutes directly. Minutes stored as Word documents open in Decisions through a link instead.
Meetings come in batches. Claude fetches up to 10 meetings at a time from Decisions. For a longer series it fetches more batches by itself.
Engagement score size. The Meeting Engagement Score is only available for meetings with 4 to 49 accepted attendees. The minimum stops a score from revealing one person's engagement.
Decisions belong to one meeting. Claude logs a decision against a single meeting, not a whole recurring series.

FAQ

Do I need a paid Decisions plan to use the Claude connector?

No. Decisions has a free entry plan, and the connector works with the content your plan includes. Some content and actions, such as reading AI Recaps or logging decisions, depend on your Decisions plan. If your plan doesn't include something, Claude tells you.

Can Claude see meetings I don't have access to?

No. The connector uses your own Microsoft 365 sign-in, so Claude can only reach meetings, files and content you already have permission to see.

Can Claude change my agendas or decisions without asking?

Adding, updating or publishing agenda items always needs your confirmation first. For other changes, Claude's own settings decide whether it asks. Decisions also checks your rights: direct agenda changes need you to be the organizer or a meeting admin. If you're an attendee, Claude files a suggestion for the organizer to approve.

Claude says Decisions isn't available, or that MCP access is off. What do I do?

Ask your Decisions admin to turn on the MCP access toggle under Decisions AI → Connectors in the Decisions Admin portal. They should also check that Disable AI Features is unticked under Company → Permissions.

I get an "admin approval required" message when connecting. What do I do?

Decisions needs a Microsoft 365 admin to approve its access to calendars and files. Ask your admin to open the Decisions Admin portal, go to Company → Permissions and select Re-Consent. They can also use app.boarddecisions.com/web/#/admin-consent. Then connect again.

How do I revoke access?

In Claude, go to Settings → Connectors and select Disconnect on the Decisions connector. This ends Claude's access immediately. A Decisions admin can also switch off the MCP access toggle, which disconnects the whole organization.

Which Claude plans support the Decisions connector?

All of them. Connectors from the Claude connector directory are available to every Claude user, including the free plan, on web, Desktop and Mobile (mobile installs are in beta). On Team and Enterprise plans, an Owner must first enable connectors for the organization. Each person then connects and signs in on their own.

Is my meeting data used to train AI models?

Decisions never uses your meeting content to train AI models. Decisions reads it live from your Microsoft 365 to answer each request and doesn't keep a copy. How Anthropic handles what Claude receives is covered by Anthropic's privacy documentation. See the Decisions Trust Center for details.
