How to Use the ChatFly MCP in LlamaIndex
Turn your ChatFly bot configurations into a queryable knowledge base with LlamaIndex.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect ChatFly MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect ChatFly 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.
Index Your Chatbot Configurations
The `list_bots` tool is your starting point. Use it to pull a complete roster of your deployed chatbots. An agent can then loop this list and use `get_bot` on each one to fetch its exact setup. LlamaIndex turns this raw API output into a structured, queryable index. Now you can ask your RAG application questions in plain English, like "show me all bots with 'sales' in their name," and get answers pulled directly from your ChatFly account.
Query Your Bot's Knowledge
The `list_data_sources` tool gets you the file names or URLs that a specific bot uses for knowledge. It tells you what a bot knows. By indexing this data with LlamaIndex, you build a system that answers questions about your bots' training. Ask "Which bots are trained on the Q3 pricing PDF?" and get an immediate, accurate list. You don't have to check each bot in the UI anymore.
Build a Self-Documenting MCP Server
Use the `create_bot` and `upload_data_source` tools to provision new bots programmatically. The real advantage here is that LlamaIndex can automatically record these actions and their results. Your knowledge base stays current with every API call from this MCP server. When you create a new bot, its configuration is immediately available for querying. You're not just running commands; you're building a system that documents itself.
