How to Use the Transloadit MCP in Google ADK

Q: What is the best way to structure a workflow using Transloadit and Google ADK?

Define your process first by calling createprocessingtemplate. This establishes a stable, reusable blueprint. Then, let your agent kick off that logic via createassembly when needed.

Q: Can I audit past media processing jobs using Transloadit and Google ADK?

Yes, you use listassemblies to see recent runs. For details on a specific job ID, call getassemblydetails. This gives you the full status and output of that assembly.

Q: If I need usage reports for Transloadit with Google ADK, which tool do I use?

Use the getbillingusage function. Just input the YYYY-MM month, and you get a clear report on all file processing usage and costs incurred.

Orchestrating File Pipelines

Need to run a complex, multi-step process—like video encoding or image resizing? Your agent calls `create_assembly` with the required steps JSON. This allows your Google ADK system to manage media workflows end-to-end, acting as a powerful backend service. The entire pipeline's status and final results are accessible using `get_assembly_details`. It gives you deep visibility into every single step that was executed.

Template Definition and Storage

Don't hardcode workflows. Use the Google ADK to call `create_processing_template` to save reusable JSON blueprints for your media processes. This structure is key: it lets you separate the 'what' (the template) from the 'when' (the assembly). The tool `list_templates` helps you view all saved templates, and if a template is obsolete, you can remove it permanently with `delete_template`.

Performance Auditing

Keep track of what your agents are costing. The `get_billing_usage` tool requires only the YYYY-MM format and returns detailed file processing usage and costs for that month. This is critical for production deployments. Want to see a job's history? Call `list_assemblies`. If you need to retry an old, successful run, use `replay_assembly`.

Setup guide

Set up Transloadit 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 Transloadit 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="Transloadit_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to Transloadit tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)
