Connect Howspace MCP to Google ADK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Howspace to Google ADK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Provision workspaces from Google ADK
This MCP Server allows your Google ADK agent to execute `create_workspace` based on training triggers from your BigQuery datasets. The agent queries `list_workspaces` to ensure it doesn't build a duplicate Howspace workspace for an existing team. Integrating this with your Google ADK setup means you can automate the logistical side of large-scale corporate training in Howspace. Your Gemini-powered agent decides when to spin up new Howspace environments based on employee onboarding pipelines.
Sync participant directories automatically
The Google ADK agent calls `add_participant` to insert new employees into active Howspace training cohorts. It uses `list_participants` to check who is already enrolled, processing the entire Howspace list within Gemini's long-context window. This keeps your Google ADK workflows accurate and prevents spamming your staff with redundant Howspace invites. The agent manages the entire Howspace directory lifecycle without human intervention.
Analyze program structures at scale
Use `list_campaigns` to let your Google ADK agent inspect all active Howspace organizational development initiatives. The agent calls `get_workspace` to retrieve metadata, linking individual Howspace workspaces back to parent campaigns. This gives your Google ADK system a bird's-eye view of your company's Howspace learning initiatives. You can feed this structured Howspace workspace data directly into BigQuery for long-term tracking.
Set up Howspace MCP in Google ADK
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
google-adkpackage (pip install google-adk) - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install Google ADK
Run
pip install google-adkto install the Agent Development Kit. MCP support is included via theMcpToolsetclass. - 2
Connect via SSE transport
Use
McpToolset.from_server()withSseServerParamspointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. - 3
Create an LlmAgent
Pass the returned
mcp_toolslist directly toLlmAgent(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 Howspace tools in your ADK agent.
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="Howspace_agent",
model="gemini-2.0-flash",
instruction="You have access to Howspace tools via MCP.",
tools=mcp_tools,
