AppViewX is now in the Claude Connectors Directory. Customers can find, renew, and revoke certificates from Claude, using live, governed AppViewX data. With this new listing, AppViewX is the first certificate lifecycle management (CLM) vendor listed in the directory.
The Claude connector builds on the AppViewX MCP Server introduced in Summer 2026 for read-only certificate visibility and expanded in our Autumn 2026 release with renewal, regeneration, and revocation.
The connector currently covers CLM capabilities, and we plan to bring more of the AppViewX machine and agent identity security platform into Claude over time.
Work Has Moved into the AI Assistant
Machine identities keep multiplying across enterprise environments. AI agents are adding identities of their own, and the move to post-quantum cryptography will touch the keys and algorithms behind all of them.
Without a connector, every question means leaving the assistant, opening a separate console, running a query, and coming back. That friction slows down answers and makes renewals easier to miss. Certificates are a clear example of this: they expire, and an expiration that was missed becomes an outage.
By March 2029, public TLS certificates will be valid for just 47 days. The CA/Browser Forum dropped the maximum from 398 days to 200 days in March 2026, and it falls to 100 days in March 2027. Every cut means more renewals and more questions about what expires when, and who owns it.
The AppViewX connector closes that gap.
What This Means for Your Team
Here’s how day-to-day certificate work changes for each team:
| Team | Before | With AppViewX in Claude |
| Security | Pull the inventory, then write up risk by hand | Ask for certificates using weak algorithms and get a written risk summary |
| Platform / SRE | Console queries and dashboard drill-downs | Ask about inventory, expiry windows, and algorithms in plain language |
| Compliance / Audit | Evidence gathering treated as a project | Answer an auditor’s question in the same conversation |
| On-call / Incident | Switch to a separate tool at 2 a.m. | Ask which certificate is in play, who owns it, and when it was last renewed |
Certificate hygiene has usually fallen to the certificate team, after the fact. When every engineer with AppViewX access can get answers in the window where they already work, the whole engineering organization can share it.
What You Can Do Today
AppViewX customers can access the AppViewX listing in the Claude Connectors Directory. Because the connector comes from the directory, it works across Claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Claude Mobile, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork. On Team and Enterprise plans, an organization owner must first enable the connector, and each user then signs in with their AppViewX credentials.
Today’s capabilities include:
- Certificate lookup. See what any certificate in your AppViewX inventory covers, when it expires, who owns it, and where it came from.
- Inventory queries. Ask questions like “What expires in the next 30 days?”, “Which certificates belong to the payments team?”, or “What was issued by our internal CA?”
- Conversational renewal. Trigger certificate renewals and regenerations directly from Claude.
- Revocation. Revoke compromised or unnecessary certificates through a simple conversation with Claude, with confirmation before execution.
Same Data, Same Permissions, Same Audit Trail
Using AppViewX through Claude doesn’t change what anyone is authorized to access. Queries and actions remain subject to existing AppViewX access policies and governance controls, so responses stay within each user’s permitted scope. Every action taken through Claude is recorded in AppViewX audit logs.
What’s Next
Agentic AI, the growth of machine identities, and the move to post-quantum cryptography are converging on enterprise trust infrastructure at once. AppViewX is building for that future with crypto-agility at the core. This new directory listing brings the CLM part of that work into Claude, with more on the way.
