How to Use the Dialpad MCP in Pydantic AI

Q: Is it possible to automate Dialpad presence with Pydantic AI?

Yes, updatepresencestatus is fully supported. Your Pydantic model will validate the status string before sending it, ensuring you never send an invalid state to the API.

Q: Can Pydantic AI help me manage my Dialpad IVR departments?

The listivrdepartments tool provides an array of your current IVR settings. You can map these to a Pydantic model to build logic that intelligently routes internal calls.

Build type-safe Pydantic AI agents that interact with Dialpad using strict schema validation for every telephony command.

Strict Dialpad schema validation with Pydantic AI

Every call to `dispatch_office_sms` is validated against your Pydantic models at runtime. If the API returns unexpected data, your agent stops immediately to prevent errors. This enforces data integrity when handling phone numbers or message content. You get clear validation errors instead of silent failures.

Type-safe directory control for Pydantic AI

Use `upsert_business_contact` to push structured data into your Dialpad directory. Pydantic AI ensures every contact field matches your expected format before the request leaves your system. This prevents malformed contact records from entering your database. It is the safest way to maintain clean directories in a production agent.

Operational logging in Pydantic AI

Inspect `list_raw_call_logs` and cast the output directly into your own Pydantic classes. This turns raw telephony data into typed objects your agent can analyze safely. By defining models for your logs, you ensure your agent only acts on data that meets your quality standards. It removes the risk of hallucinating fields during analysis.

Setup guide

Set up Dialpad MCP in Pydantic AI

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
pydantic-ai-slim[fastmcp] package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install Pydantic AI with FastMCP
Run pip install "pydantic-ai-slim[fastmcp]". The FastMCP toolset replaces the deprecated MCPServerHTTP class with full protocol support.
2

Configure the FastMCPToolset
Pass a JSON-style config dict to FastMCPToolset with your Vinkius URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. Supports Streamable HTTP, SSE, and Stdio transports.
3

Create and run your agent
Pass the toolset to Agent(toolsets=[toolset]) and call agent.run(). Swap openai:gpt-4o for any supported model — Anthropic, Google, Mistral, or Groq.

agent.py

from pydantic_ai import Agent
from pydantic_ai.toolsets.fastmcp import FastMCPToolset

toolset = FastMCPToolset({
    "mcpServers": {
        "dialpad-mcp": {
            "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
        }
    }
})

agent = Agent(
    "openai:gpt-4o",
    toolsets=[toolset],
    system_prompt="You have access to Dialpad tools.",
)

result = await agent.run("List recent Dialpad transactions")
print(result.output)
