Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Appcues API Key?
Log in to your account, navigate to Settings > API, and copy your unique API Key and Secret from the credentials section.
Can I check flow completion rates via AI?
Yes! The list_flows tool allows your agent to retrieve completion and interaction metadata for all your active experiences.
How do I list my user segments?
Use the list_segments tool to retrieve your complete directory along with the unique identifiers for all managed targeting groups.
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 Appcues 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.
