How to Use the Formstack MCP in Google ADK

Q: Can Gemini read the HTML structure of a Formstack page?

It sure can. The getformhtml tool pulls the raw source code. Gemini's massive context window easily absorbs the entire page markup for analysis or migration tasks.

Q: How do I restrict which Formstack tools my Google ADK agent can use?

Use the toolnames filter when setting up the McpToolset. If you only want the agent reading data, explicitly allow getformstats and block write operations like deleteform.

Q: What is the best way to track submission volume?

The getformstats tool returns the exact submission counts. Your agent can poll this and write the metrics directly into BigQuery for your analytics dashboards.

Give your Gemini agents direct access to Formstack data using the Google ADK.

Connect Formstack to your Google MCP Server pipeline

The `list_submissions` and `get_submission_details` tools pull form records directly into your Gemini agent's context window. Since Gemini handles massive token counts, you can dump thousands of form responses straight into the prompt. The agent reads the raw data and structures it for BigQuery. Instead of writing brittle ETL scripts, you just tell the agent to fetch the latest responses and map them to your existing database schema.

Audit form structures and fields

Call `list_forms` and `get_form_details` to map out exactly what data your organization is collecting. The agent parses the metadata and identifies overlapping or redundant fields across different departments. If you need to dive deeper, `list_form_fields` extracts the exact data types and validation rules. Your agent can compare these rules against your enterprise data governance policies stored in Vertex AI.

Programmatic webhook management

Use `list_form_webhooks` to audit where your form data currently goes. If a legacy endpoint is failing, your agent spots it and alerts the engineering team. When you spin up a new Cloud Function, the agent uses `create_webhook` to point the form traffic to the new destination. You manage the entire data routing layer through natural language commands.

Setup guide

Set up Formstack MCP in Google ADK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
google-adk package (pip install google-adk)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install Google ADK

Run pip install google-adk to install the Agent Development Kit. MCP support is included via the McpToolset class.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use McpToolset.from_server() with SseServerParams pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create an LlmAgent

Pass the returned mcp_tools list directly to LlmAgent(tools=mcp_tools). The ADK maps each MCP tool to a native Gemini function call — no manual schema definitions required.
4

Run with any Gemini model

The agent works with any Gemini model (gemini-2.0-flash, gemini-2.5-pro, etc.). Copy the full example on the right to get started with Formstack tools in your ADK agent.

agent.py

from google.adk.agents import LlmAgent
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_toolset import McpToolset
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_session_manager import SseServerParams

# Connect to the MCP via SSE
mcp_tools, exit_stack = await McpToolset.from_server(
    connection_params=SseServerParams(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    )
)

# Create your agent with auto-discovered tools
agent = LlmAgent(
    name="Formstack_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to Formstack tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)
