How to Use the GiveForms MCP in LlamaIndex

Q: Can I index GiveForms transaction data into a vector store with LlamaIndex?

Yes, you can load records using listalldonations and convert them into indexable document nodes. This lets you run semantic search queries over your entire donation history.

Q: Does LlamaIndex support filtering GiveForms data by specific campaigns?

Yes, you can use listcampaigndonations to isolate records from a specific campaign before indexing. This keeps your vector index focused and prevents unrelated data from mixing.

Q: What is the quickest way to check if my API credentials are valid?

Your agent can run verifyapiconnection to check the API status before starting an indexing job. This prevents empty index runs caused by expired or incorrect API keys.

Perplexity

Index donor records directly into LlamaIndex

The `list_all_donations` tool loads your entire fundraising history directly into LlamaIndex for indexing. Your agent can then perform semantic searches over donation amounts and donor messages rather than relying on exact keyword matching. This bridges the gap between raw database records and natural language queries. You can ask your agent who your most consistent donors are, and it will query the index to find out.

Eliminate hallucinations with this MCP Server

The `list_campaign_donations` tool grounds your agent's fundraising analysis in actual campaign numbers. By using this tool, your agent pulls real-time data to ground its answers. The agent won't guess campaign performance because it has direct access to the live numbers. You can also run `get_organization_info` to double-check organizational metadata before generating summary documents. This ensures all generated reports match actual database records.

Build rich donor profiles using index queries

The `find_donations_by_email` tool queries donor records to build detailed history profiles. Combine this tool with your existing document index to see how online giving aligns with offline interactions. The agent searches the API, retrieves the donor's history, and merges it with your local files. Running `get_donation_details` allows the agent to pull metadata for specific transactions. This gives you a complete view of individual donor behavior without switching apps.

Setup guide

Set up GiveForms MCP in LlamaIndex

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
llama-index-tools-mcp package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install llama-index-tools-mcp llama-index-llms-openai. The MCP tools package provides BasicMCPClient and McpToolSpec.
2

Connect with BasicMCPClient
Point BasicMCPClient to your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. Supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports.
3

Convert to LlamaIndex tools
Call mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async() to convert all GiveForms MCP tools into native FunctionTool objects that any LlamaIndex agent can use.
4

Run with any LLM
Create a FunctionAgent with the tools and your preferred LLM. Swap OpenAI for Anthropic, Gemini, or any LlamaIndex-supported provider.

agent.py

from llama_index.tools.mcp import BasicMCPClient, McpToolSpec
from llama_index.core.agent.workflow import FunctionAgent
from llama_index.llms.openai import OpenAI

# Connect to the MCP
mcp_client = BasicMCPClient(
    "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
mcp_tool_spec = McpToolSpec(client=mcp_client)

# Convert MCP tools to LlamaIndex tools
tools = await mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async()

# Create and run the agent
agent = FunctionAgent(
    tools=tools,
    llm=OpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
    system_prompt="You have access to GiveForms tools.",
)
response = await agent.run("List recent GiveForms data")
