Veeva Vault MCP connector

The Veeva Vault connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client look up a Veeva Vault user record by ID, so your team can confirm who a user is without leaving the conversation.

  • How it connects. Connects with an 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

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

    Before accepting an approval on a batch record or SOP, confirm the Veeva Vault user who acted is still active and is the person you expected.

  • Regulatory

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Veeva Vault to Claude?

First, connect Veeva Vault in Elaichi by pasting in an API key from your Veeva Vault account. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste in https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Sign in as yourself and Veeva Vault is available in your conversations.

Does Veeva Vault work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Veeva Vault 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 Veeva Vault once and every client you use picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Veeva Vault data?

Today the Veeva Vault connector does one thing: it looks up a single Veeva Vault user by their ID. That means an agent can tell you who is behind a user ID on an audit trail, a signature, or a document history, and whether that account is active. It cannot read documents, change records, or manage users.

Does connecting Veeva Vault give the AI everything in my vault?

No. Every call to Veeva Vault runs under the access of the person who signed in, so the agent can only look up users that person could already see in Veeva Vault. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions, but it can never widen access beyond what your Veeva Vault permissions already allow.

Can my team share one Veeva Vault connection?

Yes. One person connects Veeva Vault in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so every Veeva Vault lookup in the audit log is tied to the individual who made it.

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

The Veeva Vault connector is read only: it can look up a user by ID and nothing else, so there is nothing an agent can delete or change. If you want to restrict even that lookup for some teams, Elaichi applies restrictions per action, and a blocked action is never shown to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor, so no prompt can reach it.

What happens to a Veeva Vault connection when someone leaves?

When you offboard someone in Elaichi, their access to Veeva Vault through Elaichi ends at once, in every client they used. If they shared a Veeva Vault connection with a team, it keeps working for everyone else. Disconnecting Veeva Vault once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client at the same time.

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

Yes. Veeva Vault 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 Veeva Vault?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Veeva Vault. 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 Veeva Vault call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Veeva Vault?

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 Veeva Vault: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
