How to Use the vCita MCP in LlamaIndex
Ground your AI answers in live vCita data using LlamaIndex.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect vCita MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect vCita to LlamaIndex and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Search Client History
LlamaIndex can index results from `get_client_details` so you don't have to search through PDFs. You query the knowledge base, and it pulls facts like a client’s primary contact or service history. This means your agent answers questions based on actual API data—things like past bookings found via `list_scheduled_appointments`.
Index Bookable Services
Need to know what services are offered? Index the output of `list_offered_services`. You can ask complex questions against this index, like 'What's the price range for a haircut?' without needing structured API calls. The agent combines knowledge retrieval with function calling when you query services.
Review Financial Records
You don’t just list transactions; you index them. Use `list_client_invoices` and `list_recorded_payments` to create a searchable knowledge graph of money flow. You can ask, 'Did Client X pay for Service Y last month?' The RAG application grounds the answer in the actual payment records.
