What the Contentful Graphql connector can do

Contentful GraphQL Content API lets applications query published and preview content using a schema generated from each space's own content model. A type.com Space working with Contentful can ask Claude to run a persisted GraphQL query for content, or retrieve a management token when a task needs broader API access.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Contentful Graphql

Can Claude query Contentful content from type.com?

Yes. With a Contentful GraphQL connection shared to your Space, Claude can run persisted queries and retrieve management tokens directly in a thread.

How does type.com authenticate with Contentful GraphQL?

It uses a delivery token added once to the connection, managed by an admin who controls which Spaces can use it.

Can content queries run on a recurring schedule?

Yes. Set up a type.com automation to run a Contentful query periodically and post new or changed entries to a channel.

Is this the same as an MCP server for Contentful Graphql?

Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
