How do I find my API Token and Secret?

In Mode, click on your name in the top left, go to **My Account** > **API Tokens**. There you can create and manage your API keys.

What is the Workspace slug?

The Workspace slug is the unique identifier for your organization in the Mode URL (e.g., `app.mode.com/org_name`). The `org_name` part is your workspace slug.

Can I provide parameters when running a report?

Yes! The `run_mode_report` action accepts an optional `parameters` field where you can provide a JSON string of keys and values used by the report.

Mode Analytics + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Mode Analytics 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.
