Can I check the balance for a specific tenant using the agent?

Yes! Use the `get_tenant` tool with the Tenant ID. Your agent will fetch the detailed profile, including the current total balance due.

How do I list all the active maintenance tasks?

Simply ask the agent to `list_tasks`. It will retrieve the current maintenance tasks from your Buildium account, including descriptions and status information.

Does the integration allow creating a new work order?

The current toolset focuses on querying and monitoring (Read-Only) for operational efficiency. Creating or updating work orders should be managed via the Buildium administrator portal.
