…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect DingTalk MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect DingTalk to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Real-time approval tracking in your UI
The `create_approval_process` tool initiates leave requests or purchase orders directly from user prompts. This means your interface doesn't just show a static form; it triggers the actual DingTalk workflow and spits back the instance ID immediately via the MCP Server. Your UI updates instantly when your agent calls `get_approval_instance` to poll the status. Users watch the approval state change from pending to approved in real-time without refreshing their browser.
Vercel AI SDK live organizational mapping
The `list_all_departments` tool exposes your entire corporate hierarchy to the Vercel AI SDK client. Your application maps out top-level divisions and sub-departments on the fly as the user types queries into your search bar. By chaining `list_sub_departments` with `list_users_by_department`, your frontend renders active team rosters dynamically. The agent fetches user profiles via `get_user_info` and feeds them straight into your React state.
Instant notification delivery
The `send_work_notification` tool pushes alerts straight to any employee's work feed. Instead of building custom notification backends, your Vercel AI SDK app lets the agent write and send messages based on real-time data changes. For complex layouts, `send_markdown_message` formats tables and hyperlinks dynamically. The agent structures the markdown and sends it to specific user IDs, keeping your team updated without leaving the chat interface.
