Etsy MCP connector

The Etsy connector brings your shop's listings, inventory, photos, and files into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client, so your team can create, update, and tidy listings from a chat, inside each person's own Etsy access.

  • How it connects. OAuth or API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect Etsy to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Two steps, about a minute.

1

In Elaichi

Connect Etsy once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Etsy.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Supply your own Etsy app, then approve. Etsy needs an OAuth app you register yourself, so bring its client ID and secret. One person does this once for the organization.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

Use cases

What teams do with Etsy through Elaichi

Every one of these runs inside the access the person already has, and lands in the same audit log.

  • Shop operations

    Draft a new listing from a product brief

    Describe the item, its price, and its variations in plain language and have the listing created in your Etsy shop with the right category picked from Etsy's own taxonomy. Review it before it goes live.

  • Merchandising

    Refresh titles and descriptions across active listings

    Pull up every active listing in the shop, spot the ones with thin or outdated copy, and rewrite them in batches. Featured listings can be checked at the same time so the front of the shop stays current.

  • Inventory

    Update stock and prices across many listings at once

    Ask for every listing with a given size or color variation, then adjust quantities and prices in one bulk pass instead of opening each listing by hand.

  • Marketing

    Audit listing photos before a seasonal push

    List the images attached to each listing, find items with only one photo or a missing main shot, and add new images straight from the conversation.

  • Digital products

    Swap the file behind a digital listing

    When a pattern, printable, or template gets a new version, find the listing, remove the old file, and attach the new one without leaving the chat.

  • Customer support

    Fix personalization options a buyer asked about

    When a buyer reports a confusing personalization prompt or character limit, look up the listing and change the personalization instructions on the spot.

Try asking

  • “Which shop listings are running low on inventory?”
  • “Summarize this week's Etsy receipts by status.”
  • “Draft a new listing for the fall collection.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Etsy to Claude?

Connecting Etsy takes two steps. First, connect Etsy in Elaichi: Etsy asks you to register an app in your Etsy developer account, so somebody brings its client ID and secret once, then each person signs in with their own Etsy account through Etsy's usual sign-in screen. Second, in Claude open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Nobody else on the team has to generate or handle anything after that.

Does Etsy work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Etsy is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Etsy once and every client uses it.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Etsy data?

With Etsy connected, an agent can look through your shop's listings, active and featured, and create new ones, update titles, descriptions, and personalization instructions, and change prices and quantities across many listings at once. It can also list, add, and remove the photos and digital files attached to a listing, and pick categories from Etsy's own taxonomy. Etsy exposes a lot of actions, so short concrete asks such as "lower every mug listing to 18 dollars" work better than long paragraphs.

Does connecting Etsy give the AI access to my whole shop?

No. Every call to Etsy runs as the person who signed in, so the agent can only see and change what that person's Etsy account can already reach. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example to reading listings only, but it can never widen it beyond what Etsy itself allows that person.

Can my team share one Etsy connection?

Yes. One person connects the Etsy shop in Elaichi and shares it with a team, and nobody else ever sees or handles a credential. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so every change to an Etsy listing is logged under the name of the person who made it.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Etsy?

Yes. In Elaichi you can block individual actions on Etsy, such as deleting a listing or removing a photo, while leaving reading and updating open. A blocked action is never shown to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any other client at all, so no prompt, however worded, can reach it.

What happens to an Etsy connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Etsy at once, in every client they had connected. If the Etsy shop was shared with a team, the connection keeps working for everyone else. If you disconnect Etsy in Elaichi, it disappears from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client in one step.

Does the Etsy MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Etsy is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Etsy?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Etsy. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Etsy call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Etsy?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Etsy: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
