Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Commerce Layer credentials?
Log in to your dashboard, navigate to Settings > Applications, and create a new Integration to get your Client ID and Secret. Your Slug is the first part of your dashboard URL.
Is the API JSON API-compliant?
Yes! This MCP server strictly follows the JSON API specification, ensuring high-fidelity data structures and headers for all requests.
Can I create new orders via AI?
Absolutely. Use the create_order tool with a customer email to generate a new draft order (cart) programmatically.
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 Commerce Layer 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.
