How to Use the Zoho Bookings MCP in LlamaIndex

Q: Can LlamaIndex help me find past booking information from Zoho Bookings?

Yes. By indexing listappointments results, you can query your knowledge base across time periods. You ask a natural language question, and the system grounds the answer in actual API data.

Q: Does the Zoho Bookings MCP Server support checking staff availability for LlamaIndex?

It does. Calling getstaffslots provides the raw slot data that gets indexed. You can then query how many slots a specific employee had available on a given day.

Perplexity

Build a searchable booking knowledge base

The `list_appointments` tool retrieves all current bookings, and the output becomes indexed knowledge. You can then query your vector store to ask questions like, 'What appointments did John Smith have last month?' This lets you build RAG applications that answer based on actual Zoho Bookings API data, not guesses or hallucinations.

Find staff and service details quickly

Need to know which services are offered? Run `list_services` and index the result. Later, you can query your knowledge base: 'Which services are available in the Dallas location?' Similarly, running `list_staff` populates your index with employee details, allowing semantic search across staff records.

Verify booking status and slots

When you run `get_staff_slots`, the resulting availability data gets indexed. This means you don't just get a list; you build context around *why* certain times are available. You can then combine this indexed slot data with other documents in your store to answer complex questions about scheduling capacity.

Setup guide

Set up Zoho Bookings MCP in LlamaIndex

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
llama-index-tools-mcp package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install llama-index-tools-mcp llama-index-llms-openai. The MCP tools package provides BasicMCPClient and McpToolSpec.
2

Connect with BasicMCPClient
Point BasicMCPClient to your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. Supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports.
3

Convert to LlamaIndex tools
Call mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async() to convert all Zoho Bookings MCP tools into native FunctionTool objects that any LlamaIndex agent can use.
4

Run with any LLM
Create a FunctionAgent with the tools and your preferred LLM. Swap OpenAI for Anthropic, Gemini, or any LlamaIndex-supported provider.

agent.py

from llama_index.tools.mcp import BasicMCPClient, McpToolSpec
from llama_index.core.agent.workflow import FunctionAgent
from llama_index.llms.openai import OpenAI

# Connect to the MCP
mcp_client = BasicMCPClient(
    "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
mcp_tool_spec = McpToolSpec(client=mcp_client)

# Convert MCP tools to LlamaIndex tools
tools = await mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async()

# Create and run the agent
agent = FunctionAgent(
    tools=tools,
    llm=OpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
    system_prompt="You have access to Zoho Bookings tools.",
)
response = await agent.run("List recent Zoho Bookings data")
