How to Use the WorkflowMax MCP in LlamaIndex
Build knowledge-augmented workflows for WorkflowMax using LlamaIndex.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect WorkflowMax MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect WorkflowMax 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.
Indexing Client Relationships with MCP Server
When you execute `create_client` and then follow up by running `get_client_contact`, the resulting client ID and contact details become searchable knowledge. You're not just calling a tool; you're adding verified business context to your index. Future queries can retrieve accurate data points, like 'What is the primary email for Client XYZ?'—all grounded in the actual API output from WorkflowMax.
Querying Historical Job Data with LlamaIndex
The `list_jobs` tool provides a snapshot of active projects. By indexing this data, you can query historical records and get immediate answers about project status without writing complex filters. This turns raw list output into usable knowledge. Need to know the scope? You combine job details with task information from `list_tasks`. Your agent builds an answer based on both indexed sources.
Semantic Search for Timesheets via WorkflowMax
Every time you call `create_timesheet`, that record—including the hours and associated job UUID—gets indexed. This means you can ask complex questions like, 'Show me all work done on Client A's project in Q3.' LlamaIndex pulls data from `list_timesheets` and contextualizes it, giving answers based on meaning, not just keywords.
