How do I get an Ebby API Key?

Log in to your Ebby account, navigate to **Settings > API**, and you can generate or retrieve your unique API Key from there. Ensure you have available minutes in your balance.

What export formats are supported?

Ebby supports exporting transcriptions in various formats including Plain Text (txt), Subtitles (srt, vtt), and Microsoft Word (docx). You can specify the format using the get_transcription_text tool.

Can the agent upload new audio files?

This integration currently focuses on listing, auditing, and retrieving text for existing transcriptions. Uploading and starting new transcription jobs should be managed via the Ebby web interface.

Ebby + Pydantic AI FAQ

Common questions about integrating Ebby MCP Server with Pydantic AI.

How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?

Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.

Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?

Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.

Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?

Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your Ebby MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
