Building an AI startup?

To integrate Bright Data into Claude Code, simply copy this command to your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport sse brightdata "https://mcp.brightdata.com/sse?token=<your-api-token>"

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

Claude Code is installed and configured
A Bright Data account (new users get free credit for testing, and then you can pay as you go)
An API key from the user settings page (New users receive an API key in the welcome email.)

If you prefer to use a different zone name, you can specify it with the unlocker url parameter variable in your configuration

Basic Configuration

Add the Bright Data MCP server to your Claude Code configuration:

claude mcp add --transport sse brightdata https://mcp.brightdata.com/sse?token=<your-api-token>

Replace <your-api-token> with your actual API token from Bright Data.

Validation

Verify the integration by running:

claude mcp list

You should see the following output confirming successful connection:

brightdata: https://mcp.brightdata.com/sse?token=<yourapikey>(SSE) - ✓ Connected
