Frequently asked questions
How do I get a CrowdTangle API Token?
Log in to your CrowdTangle dashboard, go to Settings > API, and you will find your API Token there. Ensure your account has API access enabled.
Which social platforms are supported?
CrowdTangle primarily supports Facebook and Instagram public data. It also tracks specific types of data from Reddit and Twitter (limited).
Can the agent see private accounts?
No, CrowdTangle only tracks public posts and data from verified pages, groups, and public accounts. Private profiles are not accessible via this API.
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 CrowdTangle 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.
