Yuki is online accounting software from Visma. Yuki specializes in automated processing of documents in the Netherlands.
No technical knowledge is needed nor knowledge on the Yuki APIs to connect Yuki to Claude. This step-by-step plan will tell you exactly which steps you need to go through on Invantive Cloud to create your own Azure data warehouse with data from Yuki.
The steps to connect Claude to Yuki are:
- Register an Invantive Cloud account.
- Create a Yuki database.
- Grant connection from Claude access to Yuki
- Connect Claude to Yuki through the connector.
- Ask Claude a question about Yuki
Invantive Cloud offers a Yuki connector to download data from Yuki into Claude, but there are over 110 other connectors available also for SQL, Power BI, Power Query, Qlik, Tableau i Azure Data Factory.
With the Yuki connector for Claude you will by default fetch the data from all connected Yuki companies in your dashboard. You can limit the number of Yuki companies that are retrieved in Claude through the Database settings. For example, you can also limit the connector for Claude to the data from exactly one Yuki company. Of course, you can also filter the data by a specific Yuki company using a filter step in Claude. The Yuki connector for Claude has advanced optimizations for great real-time performance with both a single Yuki company as well as with hundreds of Yuki companies.

Register Account on Invantive Cloud
Skip this step when you already have an account on Invantive Cloud. Otherwise execute the following steps one time to register an account on Invantive Cloud:
-
Go to Invantive Cloud start page.
Select the Log on-button.
-
Select the Next-button.
-
Select the Next-button.
Enter your password and repeat the provided password.
You will receive a six-digit verification code by email within 2 minutes.
-
Select the Sign Up-button.
-
Make sure you have an authentication app installed on your phone. Select the Next-button.
-
Add the displayed QR code to the authentication app, enter the current verification code, and choose "Finish".
-
The Invantive Cloud dashboard will be shown.
You now have a login code on Invantive Cloud with which you can set up the connection with Yuki and numerous other platforms. You will use the same Invantive login code and workflow for all other platforms.
Create Yuki database
In this step, we set up a database with data from Yuki. The database is "virtual" because it is not a traditional database, but is fed real-time from Yuki. Invantive Cloud provides Claude with a real-time link to Yuki. The database will be used for all your Yuki reporting with Claude. So you only need to perform these steps once.
-
Click the Add Database button.
-
Please fill out the form with login information for Yuki.
Select the OK-button.
Congratulations! You can now process data from Yuki within the Invantive Cloud website. You can do this for example with the interactive SQL editor.
Grant connection from Claude access to Yuki
To retrieve the data from Claude we create a link via Invantive Bridge Online. This creates a "bridge" between the cloud of Invantive and the standard OData connector that is available in every version of Claude. You do not need to install anything locally: no connector, no ado.NET provider and no Claude add-on neither.
Execute the following steps to safely use the data from Yuki outside of Invantive Cloud:
Next to the database you will find an orange text requesting you to allow access from your current location (IP address). Select the nearby orange button.
You can completely disable IP address checking by entering an asterisk ("*").
You are now ready to import the Yuki data into Claude.
Configure the MCP connector in Claude for Yuki
In Claude the address of the MCP server is added once as a custom connector, after which the data of Yuki is available in every conversation.
-
In Claude: open Settings and then Connectors, and choose to add a custom connector.
-
Paste the URL address of the MCP server copied in the previous step and confirm.
-
Log on with your Invantive Cloud account and approve the request.
-
Ask a question only your own Yuki data can answer. The connector first reads the data model and then the records the question needs.
What Claude Can and Cannot Do
The connector offers tools such as to describe the data model and read records. There is no tool that writes, posts, deletes or executes SQL, so no instruction in a conversation can change anything in Yuki.
Reading is bounded by the database: platforms not in it and Yuki companies not selected are not reachable.
