Frequently asked questions
How do I find my AfterShip API Key?
Log in to your AfterShip account, navigate to Settings > API Keys. You can generate a new API key there. This key works for both Returns and Tracking APIs.
Can I approve a return request via the agent?
Yes! Use the approve_return tool and provide the Return ID. Your agent will update the status in AfterShip, which can also trigger automatic label generation if configured.
Does this support marking items as received?
Yes, you can use the receive_items tool to record which items from an RMA have arrived at your warehouse and their current condition grade.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call AfterShip Returns tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
