How to Use the IATA Developer Portal MCP in Google ADK

Q: How does the Google ADK interface with the IATA Developer Portal?

You initialize the McpToolset using the HTTP server parameters provided by Vinkius. Once registered, your Gemini agent can call checkapistatus or any other tool in the suite natively.

Q: Can I filter which IATA Developer Portal tools are visible to my Gemini model in Google ADK?

Yes, use the toolnames parameter when defining your toolset. This allows you to expose only listiatacountries while hiding the other five tools from the model.

Run high-scale aviation queries on Gemini using Google ADK with direct access to global airport and airline datasets.

Perplexity

Feed Gemini long-context models with raw aviation data

Give your Gemini models the raw data they need to analyze complex flight paths. By exposing `search_airports` and `search_airlines` to your Google ADK agent, you feed structured data directly into a million-token context window. This setup lets the agent compare thousands of global routes at once. It processes heavy data tables without losing track of the user's original request.

Connect BigQuery pipelines to the Google ADK MCP Server

Combine your internal enterprise flight logs with live IATA reference data. Your agent can pull historical records from BigQuery, then call `get_city_details` to verify destination codes. This bridges the gap between your static cloud warehouses and active reference systems. You get clean, up-to-date city information without manual data syncs.

Restrict exposed tools to manage API quotas

Control which tools your Gemini agent can access by using the optional tool name filter in this MCP Server. You can limit the agent to `search_aircraft` and `list_iata_countries` to keep it focused on fleet management. Preventing access to unused endpoints saves your API budget. The agent only calls the specific tools required for the task, reducing execution errors.

Setup guide

Set up IATA Developer Portal 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 IATA Developer Portal 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="IATA Developer Portal_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to IATA Developer Portal tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)

Common questions about IATA Developer Portal MCP in Google ADK

You initialize the `McpToolset` using the HTTP server parameters provided by Vinkius. Once registered, your Gemini agent can call `check_api_status` or any other tool in the suite natively.

Yes, you can write agents that query BigQuery tables and then use `search_airlines` to verify the carrier codes. This makes it easy to enrich your internal warehouse data with official reference standards.

This managed server runs over HTTP on Vinkius, which the ADK supports out of the box. You do not need to manage local process lifecycles or node configurations to query airport or carrier data.

Yes, use the `tool_names` parameter when defining your toolset. This allows you to expose only `list_iata_countries` while hiding the other five tools from the model.

Yes, all data transfers containing airport, country, or aircraft codes are fully encrypted in transit. The Vinkius MCP infrastructure uses ephemeral execution environments that destroy session data immediately after the tool call completes.
