Can the AI automatically find a person's profile by their email address?

Yes! Use the `get_person` tool with the target email address. Your agent will return the full profile metadata, including custom fields and account associations.

How do I specify which region my Ortto account is hosted in?

When configuring the server, use the `ORTTO_REGION` field. Supported values are 'Global' (default), 'AU' (Australia), or 'EU' (Europe), ensuring your agent connects to the correct data center.

Does the integration allow for triggering custom activities for engagement?

Yes. The `create_activity` tool allows you to programmatically trigger any custom activity defined in your Ortto instance, perfect for real-time automation and journey entry.

Ortto (formerly Autopilot) + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Ortto (formerly Autopilot) 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.
