How do I find my Atera API Key?

Log in to Atera, go to **Admin > Data Management > API**, and you can generate and copy your API Key there.

What is an 'Agent ID'?

An Agent ID is a unique numeric identifier for a device monitored by Atera. You can find these IDs by using the `list_agents` tool.

Can I create a ticket for a specific customer?

Yes, use the `create_ticket` tool and provide the optional `customerId` parameter to link the ticket to a specific organization in your Atera account.

Atera + Pydantic AI FAQ

Common questions about integrating Atera MCP Server with Pydantic AI.

How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?

Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.

Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?

Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.

Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?

Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your Atera MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
