How do I check if tickets are available for a specific date?

First, use `list_event_performances` to get the performance ID for your target date, then use `check_ticket_availability` with that ID to see current stock.

What is required to confirm an order?

You typically need to create a reservation first using `create_ticket_reservation`, then provide the resulting reservation data to the `confirm_ticket_order` tool.

Where do I find my API Key?

Log in to your Line-Up dashboard and navigate to Settings > API to generate and copy your Secret API Key.

Line-Up + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Line-Up MCP Server with VS Code Copilot.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
