How to Use the Uploadcare MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK
Handle media assets reliably with your OpenAI Agents SDK agent.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Uploadcare MCP to OpenAI Agents SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Uploadcare to OpenAI Agents SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Batch File Management
The `batch_delete_files` tool permanently removes multiple files in one call. Use this when you need to wipe out a large set of media assets instantly, knowing the process is irreversible. The `batch_store_files` tool marks several temporary uploads as permanent storage. This lets your agent finish grouping and committing many files at once.
Project Oversight
Need to know what's going on with a project? The `get_project_info` tool retrieves metadata, plus usage statistics for the entire Uploadcare project. It gives your agent full visibility into resource consumption. Want to see what groups exist? Call `list_file_groups`. This method lists all immutable collections of files in your account.
File Retrieval and Copying
The `copy_file` tool copies an existing file either locally or to another remote storage endpoint. You can use this when a process needs the same media asset in two different systems. If you just need basic data points, `get_file_details` retrieves technical metadata for any specific Uploadcare file.
