Where do I find my AfterLogic API URL?

The Web API endpoint is typically your Aurora installation URL followed by `/?/Api/`. The REST Admin API endpoint is your URL followed by `/rest.php/`. Consult your system administrator for the specific base path.

Can I check if an email account exists?

Yes! Use the `check_account_exists` tool. It uses the REST Admin API to verify if a specific email address is registered on your server.

Does this support sending emails?

Yes, you can use the `send_message` tool to compose and send emails via the Web API on behalf of an authenticated user.

AfterLogic Aurora + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating AfterLogic Aurora MCP Server with VS Code Copilot.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
