Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Expensya Token?
Log in to Expensya as an admin, navigate to Administration > Integrations > API Keys, and generate your unique token.
What is the Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key?
This is an additional security key obtained by registering on the Expensya Developer Portal and subscribing to an API product.
Can I automate exports through the agent?
Yes! Use the export_expense_data tool and provide a valid exportId. The agent will trigger the export process in the background.
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 Expensya 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.
