How to Use the CaptivateIQ MCP in LlamaIndex
Turn your CaptivateIQ data into a queryable knowledge base using LlamaIndex.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect CaptivateIQ MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect CaptivateIQ to LlamaIndex and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Build a searchable payout history
Your LlamaIndex agent can periodically run `list_commission_payouts` and `list_payout_statements`. The output from these tools is automatically indexed into a vector store of your choice. This builds a persistent, searchable history of all commission activity. When a user asks, "Show me all of John's payouts from last quarter," the agent queries the index. It gets an instant, grounded answer without having to hit the live API again.
Answer questions about comp plans
Use the `list_employees` and `get_employee_details` tools to populate an index with your team's compensation plan assignments. This creates a snapshot of your org structure inside a knowledge base that your agent can query. Your agent can now answer natural language questions like "Who is on the Enterprise Sales plan?" by performing a semantic search over that indexed data. It's faster and more efficient than making repeated API calls for information that doesn't change often.
Ground your LlamaIndex agent in facts
When a commission question comes up, use Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Your agent can fetch relevant context from the indexed results of `list_commission_inquiries` and `list_worksheets`. This gives it the factual data it needs to explain why a commission was calculated a certain way. This MCP Server provides the live data, and LlamaIndex turns it into institutional knowledge. Your agent's answers get grounded in actual workbook logic and payout records, preventing hallucinations.
