Zapier MCP Connection to Claude

I’m having trouble with oAuth with my Claude Desktop to the Zapier MCP server.  When I launch Claude Desktop, it redirects me to an oAUTH page for Zapier but I get an error:
 

Error: invalid_request

Mismatching redirect URI.

 

Below is my JSON Configuration file for Claude Desktop:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zapier-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.zapier.com/api/mcp/a/16048681/sse"
      ]
    },
    "github": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "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"
      }
    }
  },
  "globalShortcut": "Ctrl+Space"
}

I’m having the same issue. Using desktop config, not new Integrations function. 


I was able to connect using the old style: https://actions.zapier.com/settings/mcp/

I am having the same issue.
I manged to get the older MCP server that uses actions working but the new MCP server is failing with the same authentication error:
 

 

 


I made it work by not choosing the Claude integration but the “Other” integration mode, then editing the JSON config file.
