How do I find my Bandwidth API credentials?

Log in to your [**Bandwidth Dashboard**](https://dashboard.bandwidth.com/), navigate to **Account** > **API Credentials** to find your Username and Token. Your Account ID is visible in the URL or the Profile section.

Can the agent check call states?

Yes. Use the `get_call_state` tool providing the Call ID. Your agent will return real-time status such as 'active', 'completed', or 'busy'.

Is it possible to manage conferences via the agent?

Yes. The `list_conferences` tool allows your agent to retrieve all active conferences, helping you monitor multi-party voice sessions in real-time.

Bandwidth Alternative + Pydantic AI FAQ

Common questions about integrating Bandwidth Alternative 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 Bandwidth Alternative MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
