How to Use the Zuora MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How do I verify Zuora billing status using OpenAI Agents SDK?

You can confirm a client's current standing by running getaccount via your agent. This retrieves the core account details, confirming if the user is active or needs an updated subscription through listsubscriptions.

Q: What happens when I create a Zuora order with OpenAI Agents SDK?

Calling createorder generates a unified Zuora Order record. Your agent can immediately follow up by calling getorder to pull the ID and initial status, confirming that the transaction was accepted.

Q: Does OpenAI Agents SDK support reviewing past invoices for Zuora?

Yes, you use the getinvoices tool. This function pulls all relevant billing records associated with a specific account ID. It gives your agent access to payment details and amounts charged.

Perplexity

Manage full account lifecycle.

Build agents that handle everything from initial setup to status updates. You can use `create_account` and then follow up by calling `update_account` with new details, ensuring the client record is always current. The agent system also supports retrieving existing records. Call `get_account` first, and if the account needs modifications, you'll have the necessary data structure to pass back through `update_account`. This guarantees a full workflow loop.

Process historical billing reports.

Agents can pull detailed payment history for any client. Start by getting all invoices using `get_invoices`, then filter that data down to specific periods. You'll get back the necessary line items and amounts needed for reporting. If you need a full picture of what's owed, pair up `list_subscriptions` with `get_subscription`. This lets your agent check both active plans and past billing records in one coordinated sequence.

Handle complex order creation.

Don't just create a record; build a full transaction. Use `create_order` to generate the unified Zuora Order ID first. Then, you can call `get_order` to confirm its status before proceeding with related actions. For deep billing visibility, your agent should use `list_products` to see what's available, and then use that data when calling `create_order`. This makes the entire transaction verifiable.

Setup guide

Set up Zuora MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
openai-agents package (pip install openai-agents)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install the SDK

Run pip install openai-agents to install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use MCPServerSse with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all Zuora tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Zuora tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Zuora tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.

agent.py

import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse

async def main():
    async with MCPServerSse(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ) as server:
        agent = Agent(
            name="Zuora Agent",
            instructions="You have access to Zuora tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())
