Bestbuy for AI agents

Best Buy's API exposes its product catalog, store locations, and customer reviews, used by apps that want to look up electronics pricing, availability, and reviews. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Bestbuy connects.

Users add their Bestbuy api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Bestbuy connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Bestbuy and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Bestbuy with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Bestbuy to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Bestbuy actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Bestbuy?

Users add their Bestbuy api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Bestbuy actions can my agent take?

8 in total: 8 read, 0 write and 0 destructive. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I make my agent read-only in Bestbuy?

Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Bestbuy policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.

Q05

Can my own backend call Bestbuy too?

Yes. The same Bestbuy connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
