How do I get my Attio Personal Access Token?

Log in to your Attio account, go to **Workspace Settings > Developers**, and you can create a new Personal Access Token (PAT) there.

What are 'Attributes' in Attio?

Attributes are the columns or fields on an object (e.g., Name, Email, Deal Value). You can list them using the `list_attributes` tool.

How does 'assert_record' work?

The `assert_record` tool performs an 'upsert'. It checks if a record with a specific matching attribute (like an email address) already exists. If it does, it updates it; if not, it creates a new record.

Attio + AutoGen FAQ

Common questions about integrating Attio MCP Server with AutoGen.

How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?

Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Attio tools during their conversation turns.

Can different agents have different MCP tool access?

Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
