Automate ticket responses using Zoho Desk MCP Server

When a customer needs an update, your agent can reply directly via `add_reply`. The response shows up in the customer portal and their email inbox. This tool ensures agents communicate professionally by sending formatted HTML replies. You also need to add context that customers shouldn't see. Use `add_note` for internal escalation details or collaboration notes; this keeps sensitive info visible only to your team.

Build complex customer workflows with LangChain

Don't just create a ticket—manage the whole journey. You can first run `get_contact` to pull up all details on a person, then use that contact ID in `create_ticket`. This sequence ensures every new support request is linked correctly. This process works whether you're setting priority via `create_ticket` or updating status with `update_ticket`. Your agent chain handles the whole handoff.

Keep track of all accounts and contacts using MCP Server

Sometimes, knowing *who* belongs to *whom* matters. Run `list_accounts` to get an overview of client organizations—including their industry or website. This helps your agent understand the business context before touching a ticket. Want to check on specific people? Use `list_contacts` to pull names and phone numbers for customers, making it easier to build out new user profiles with `create_contact`.

Setup guide

Set up Zoho Desk MCP in LangChain

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
langchain-mcp-adapters + langgraph packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install langchain-mcp-adapters langgraph langchain-openai. The MCP adapters package converts MCP tools into native LangChain BaseTool objects.
2

Connect via HTTP transport
Use MultiServerMCPClient with "transport": "http" pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create a ReAct agent
Pass the discovered tools to create_react_agent() from LangGraph. The agent automatically routes Zoho Desk tool calls through the MCP protocol.
4

Run with any LLM
Swap ChatOpenAI for ChatAnthropic, ChatGoogleGenerativeAI, or any LangChain-compatible model. The MCP tools work identically across all providers.

agent.py

from langchain_mcp_adapters.client import MultiServerMCPClient
from langgraph.prebuilt import create_react_agent
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI

async with MultiServerMCPClient({
    "zoho-desk-mcp": {
        "transport": "http",
        "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp",
    }
}) as client:
    tools = client.get_tools()

    agent = create_react_agent(
        ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
        tools,
    )
    result = await agent.ainvoke({
        "messages": "List recent Zoho Desk transactions"
    })
    print(result["messages"][-1].content)
