BigCommerce MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to BigCommerce and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 683 BigCommerce actions (273 reads, 267 writes and 143 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the BigCommerce credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces BigCommerce's limits and records every call.

100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

Set up

Connect BigCommerce in three steps.

  1. 01

    Add actionlake to Claude.

    Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

    https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp
  2. 02

    Connect BigCommerce.

    API key. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

    • access_tokenBigCommerce store-level API account access token (Settings > Store-level API accounts > Create API account; grant…
    • store_hashWhere your BigCommerce lives: your store hash
    account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "bigcommerce" }
    # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
  3. 03

    Make the first call. Check before a write.

    Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, check validates the call and prices it, for free.

    do    { action: "bigcommerce.catalog_products.list" }# list products · read · 1 upstream callcheck { action: "bigcommerce.catalog_products.create", input: { … } }# free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent

Top actions

The BigCommerce API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 97 of BigCommerce's 98 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Try it

Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the BigCommerce actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

  1. Readread

    Which BigCommerce orders from the last seven days are still unfulfilled?

    callsbigcommerce.orders.list

  2. Writewrite

    Create Product in BigCommerce. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.

    callsbigcommerce.catalog_products.create

Governance for BigCommerce

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

143 BigCommerce actions are destructive. The first 10:

  • Delete Productbigcommerce.catalog_products.delete
  • Delete Customersbigcommerce.customers.delete
  • Delete Locationsbigcommerce.inventory_locations.delete
  • Voidbigcommerce.orders_payment_actions.void
  • Delete Categorybigcommerce.catalog_categories.delete
  • Delete Product Variantbigcommerce.catalog_products_variants.delete
  • Delete Order Shipmentbigcommerce.orders_shipments.delete
  • Delete Product Imagebigcommerce.catalog_products_images.delete
  • Delete Webhookbigcommerce.hooks.delete
  • Delete Customer Addressbigcommerce.customers_addresses.delete

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

Cost

What BigCommerce costs on actionlake.

Every BigCommerce action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call BigCommerce refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Questions

The BigCommerce MCP server, answered.

Is there a BigCommerce MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 683 BigCommerce actions across promotions, pricelists records, catalog products and content pages, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by BigCommerce.

What do I need to connect BigCommerce?

BigCommerce store-level API account access token (Settings > Store-level API accounts > Create API account; grant…. Plus your store hash. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "bigcommerce" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in BigCommerce?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 143 BigCommerce actions are destructive, including delete Product, delete Customers and delete Locations. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

Will an AI agent use up my BigCommerce API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the BigCommerce service file: 150 calls per 30 seconds per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (262 BigCommerce actions can be), which never reaches BigCommerce.

What does a BigCommerce action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (683 BigCommerce actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls BigCommerce refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Which BigCommerce API does it cover?

The BigCommerce REST Admin API V2 + V3 (OpenAPI 3, docs.bigcommerce.com 2026-10) at api.bigcommerce.com/stores, under your store hash. It is built from BigCommerce's documentation as read on 22 October 2026. 683 actions in 228 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my BigCommerce data, and where?

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your BigCommerce credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

Which AI clients can use it?

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
