Connect Claude in Microsoft 365 with Zeldoc.ai
Use the Claude add-in in PowerPoint, Word, Excel and Outlook through Zeldoc.ai. All you need is a ZConnect key from your organization's Zeldoc.ai admin.
Get started
The steps use PowerPoint. Word, Excel and Outlook work the same way.
-
Select the ··· button at the right end of the ribbon, then Add-ins.
-
Search for Claude and install Claude for Microsoft 365.
-
When the Claude pane opens, pick Cloud provider or gateway, then Gateway.
-
Enter the connection details:
Field Value Gateway URL https://api.zeldoc.aiAPI token Your ZConnect key -
Select Connect. You're in.
Next time, open the ··· menu and select Claude to bring the pane back.
No
/v1 in the gateway URLUse https://api.zeldoc.ai, not https://api.zeldoc.ai/v1. The add-in adds the
path itself.
Good to know
- The key is stored locally in the Office application on your machine, not sent to Anthropic. Repeat the steps in Word, Excel and Outlook if you use Claude there too.
- Got a new key? Open Settings in the Claude pane, paste it, and select Test Connection.
- The models you can pick are the ZConnect models your key allows. Anything else is hidden by design.
- Older versions of the add-in call the gateway option Enterprise gateway.
Troubleshooting
- Claude isn't in the Add-ins search. Your organization may have turned off the Office Store. Ask your IT admin to deploy the add-in from the Microsoft 365 Admin Center using Anthropic's guide. The add-in needs Microsoft 365 on the web, Windows or Mac; Office 2019 and the iPad and Android apps are not supported.
- The connection test fails. Check the URL has no trailing
/v1and that you pasted the whole key including thesk-prefix. If it still fails, ask IT to allowpivot.claude.aiandappsforoffice.microsoft.comalongsideapi.zeldoc.ai. - You don't have a key. Ask your Zeldoc.ai admin. Admins: see ZConnect keys.
