How to Use the EdApp MCP in LlamaIndex
Build a searchable knowledge base of your training history by indexing EdApp data directly into LlamaIndex for grounded AI answers.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect EdApp MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect EdApp 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 training progress
Turn your progress logs into a searchable vector store. Use `get_course_progress_report` to pull data and let your index map it for semantic retrieval later. Your RAG pipeline uses this data to answer questions about learner performance. You move past simple queries and start asking your data actual questions about workforce readiness.
Query your content catalog
Feed your course metadata into your index. By calling `list_training_courses`, you give your agent a map of your entire training library to reference during conversations. Finding the right course for a specific skill gap becomes trivial. The agent searches the index, finds the relevant lesson, and presents the link to the user.
Ground AI in API facts
Stop guessing and start querying. Use `get_learner_details` to verify specific user status before your agent proposes a new training path. Every answer the agent provides is backed by the current state of your EdApp account. It pulls the facts from the source, reducing the chance of hallucinated training recommendations.
